We're looking for an Existing Business Trading Underwriter in London to join a dynamic and growing MGA that's reshaping the way brokers experience trading partnerships.
This is a chance to be part of a collaborative, high-performing team that values autonomy, expertise, and personality just as much as performance.

- Own and manage a portfolio of commercial renewals across a wide range of sectors - from property owners and contractors to hospitality and retail.
- Build strong, trusted relationships with brokers by providing responsive, knowledgeable support and proactive renewal outcomes.
- Handle mid-term adjustments, cancellations, and larger renewals (£5,000+ premium) efficiently and accurately.
- Act as a referral point for underwriting assistants and contribute to team development.
- Work within your underwriting licence and collaborate with senior colleagues to deliver the best trading decisions.
- Identify opportunities to streamline processes and improve the customer journey.
As a Commercial Underwriter you will have:
- At least 2 years' experience in commercial underwriting (property/casualty).
- Strong trading and negotiation skills - with the confidence to make decisions that balance risk and reward.
- Excellent communication and organisational skills, with a natural flair for relationship management.
- The ability to perform under pressure while maintaining accuracy and professionalism.
As a Commercial Underwriter you will get:
✅ Competitive salary & annual bonus opportunities
✅ Generous private healthcare and pension scheme
✅ Flexible, collaborative working environment
✅ Real career progression and professional development support
