Description de l'offre d'emploi
Production Underwriter – Specialty Insurance Location: Remote – United States
About Our Client
Our client is a specialty insurance company with a distinctive business model — one built around empowering experienced underwriters to develop and grow their own niche books of business with full company infrastructure behind them. They're not looking for someone to manage an existing program. They're looking for a proven producer who wants to own something.
The Opportunity
This is a role for an underwriter who has already built something and wants the platform to take it further. You'll bring an established book, strong broker relationships, and a track record of profitable underwriting in your specialty niche. In return, you'll get the backing of a well-resourced organization — marketing, financial, and technical support — without sacrificing the autonomy that got you here.
What You'll Be Doing
- Managing and growing an existing book of business in the $30–50M+ premium range
- Maintaining and developing relationships with retail brokers and producers
- Underwriting risks within company guidelines while applying deep specialty expertise
- Pricing risks appropriately to achieve consistent underwriting profitability
- Collaborating with marketing, financial, and technical teams to optimize program performance
What You Bring
- 8–10+ years of specialty insurance underwriting experience (minimum 5 years)
- An active book of business valued at $30–50M+ in premium
- Established retail broker relationships and a demonstrated ability to move business
- A measurable track record of profitable underwriting results
- Deep technical knowledge in your specialty niche
- Experience with tail distribution products through retail broker channels is a plus
- An entrepreneurial mindset and the drive to build something long-term
Compensation
- Base salary: $225,000–$300,000, commensurate with experience and book size
- Additional performance incentives tied to program results
The Process
Our client runs a thorough but straightforward interview process: an initial conversation with the founding partners, a technical discussion with marketing and reinsurance, a financial model review with the CFO, and final rounds as needed. They're selective — and serious about finding the right fit.
Why This Opportunity
If you're a top performer in your niche who's been constrained by a large carrier's appetite, bureaucracy, or compensation structure, this is the conversation you should be having. Our client offers real upside, real autonomy, and a leadership team that understands what it takes to underwrite profitably at a high level.
