Vice President - Inland Marine Underwriter

$150k

Are you an Inland Marine Underwriter in New York, Jersey or Philadelphia tired of being measured solely on top line growth targets and looking for a business that takes a longer-term view?

What if you could have the autonomy to build relationships with the brokers you actually want to work with, write profitable business within your territory, and be trusted to make decisions rather than constantly seeking approval?

This opportunity offers exactly that.

Backed by the strength and stability of a large multinational insurer, you'll join a business focused on sustainable growth and long-term profitability rather than the aggressive growth-at-all-costs model that's become increasingly common across parts of the market.

They're not trying to be the cheapest insurer in the room either.

Instead, they've built their reputation on delivering exceptional service, strong broker relationships, and consistent underwriting results.

The firm is also investing heavily in technology, AI and automation tools to help underwriters spend less time on administration and achieve faster turnaround times for brokers and clients.

And if your ambitions stretch beyond underwriting?

You'll have access to sales and leadership development programmes designed to prepare high-performing individuals for future leadership opportunities.

Why might this role appeal to you?
  • Base salary up to $150,000
  • 25% target bonus with a strong history of annual payouts
  • Significant underwriting authority and autonomy
  • Leadership development programmes designed to prepare high performers for future management opportunities
  • Established book of business to inherit and grow
  • Hybrid working model - 3 days from home, 2 days in the office

This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys building broker relationships, developing profitable business, and becoming a recognised specialist within Inland Marine.

In return, you'll receive a highly competitive compensation package, strong benefits including medical, dental and 401(k), ongoing professional development, wellness incentives, and the chance to join a close-knit team that genuinely enjoys working together.

If you're looking for a business that rewards performance, invests in its people, and offers a clear path for future advancement, I'd welcome a confidential conversation.

Resume ready? Great.

Need help updating it first? We can assist with that too.
