This isn’t a job description. It’s your invitation.

At Rokstone Underwriting, we don’t hire to fill seats. We bring people in to build something real.

We want people to join us (that person might be you) on our mission to be the world’s most inspiring insurance group, not by playing it safe but by delivering the unexpected and creating meaningful impact.

That means backing ideas early, trusting people to own their work and giving them the space to grow faster than they thought possible.

Some people join us knowing exactly where they want to go. Others figure it out once they’re here. Both work here - the question is, will you?

What You’ll Take On (The actual job description)

Lead the shape of complex claims at Rokstone, where judgement, technical strength and commercial thinking come together to define outcomes.

This is a senior role with real influence.

You’ll set the direction for how complex claims are handled, partnering across the business and with the market to drive consistency, clarity and confidence in decision-making.

It’s about building a proposition that stands up under pressure and a team that delivers it.

  • What you’ll do
  • Own and evolve the complex claims strategy, turning technical expertise into clear, consistent decision‑making across high-value and sensitive cases.
  • Lead reserving philosophy and claims protocols, using insight and judgement to strengthen financial accuracy and long‑term performance.
  • Partner with actuarial, operations and external experts to improve how claims flow, ensuring speed, control and clarity at every stage.
  • Build and develop a high‑performing technical team, raising standards through mentoring, peer review and hands‑on leadership.
  • Shape relationships with capacity providers and TPAs, strengthening trust and transparency across complex loss reporting and oversight.
  • What it’s Like to Work Here

Expect high standards and the support to meet them.

Expect autonomy (not micromanagement) and the chance to collaborate across teams, brands and borders.

Here, your ideas are taken seriously, wherever you sit in the business.

We invest when the right tools don’t exist.

We listen when our people say something can be better.

And when we win, we make sure the people building the business win too.

This is a place where performance matters - but so does enjoyment, curiosity and doing work you are proud of.

Who Thrives at Rokstone Underwriting?

We don’t expect you to tick every box.

Experience helps, but curiosity matters more.

If you are willing to learn, take ownership and ask questions when you don’t know the answer, you’re already off to a great start.

We look for people who are

  • Highly organised, proactive, analytical, and collaborative, with strong Microsoft Office skills (including Excel) and the ability to multitask and prioritise effectively.
  • Confidence in communicating with others and working together.
  • A mindset focused on learning, improvement and follow‑through.
  • An interest in how things work (and how they could be improved).

If this sounds like you, you sound ready for a new chapter of challenge at Rokstone.

Why Apply

Because you want more than a job title.

Because you want to grow, not wait for your turn.

Because you want to be trusted to do good work (and get recognised when you do it).

And because you want to help build something inspiring, unexpected and meaningful.
