Job Description:

Deputy Underwriting Director Role | London |

What happens when you combine technical leadership, operational influence, and commercial clarity - all under one roof?

A fast-evolving, service-led insurance platform is looking for a Deputy Underwriting Director to help drive performance, strategy, and governance across its underwriting operations.

You’ll be joining a leadership team with deep Lloyd’s and London Market experience - including a Director of Underwriting with a background at the very heart of syndicate oversight. That means the standard here is high.

This isn’t a policy-writing role. It’s a chance to shape how underwriting is structured, measured, and improved across multiple clients and portfolios. You’ll play a key role in refining frameworks, embedding controls, and supporting a smarter approach to underwriting delivery - all within a business that’s investing in doing things properly. You’ll have the autonomy to challenge how things are done, and the platform to drive real operational change - not just talk about it.

This would suit someone with strong technical underwriting experience, ideally with exposure to performance, governance, or syndicate oversight. Someone who understands the commercial side of underwriting - but also knows how to build the scaffolding that supports it.

You’ll be:

• Supporting the Director of Underwriting on strategy, frameworks, and execution
• Working across teams to ensure underwriting performance is measurable, accountable, and consistent
• Collaborating with clients, senior stakeholders, and internal leads to deliver best-in-class standards
• Taking ownership of governance processes, controls, and improvement initiatives
• Acting as a senior figure within a high-performing, growth-minded platform

If you’re looking for a visible, senior-level role that blends structure with autonomy - and commercial trust with technical challenge - this could be the next step.
