Senior Insurance Underwriter (Remote)

Working for a leader in the insurance industry means opportunity for you. Great American Insurance Group's member companies are subsidiaries of American Financial Group. We combine a \"small company\" culture where your ideas will be heard with \"big company\" expertise to help you succeed. With over 30 specialty and property and casualty operations, there are always opportunities here to learn and grow. The Division offers significant capacity for both Lead Umbrella and Excess Liability placements and serves a diverse range of businesses, from light hazard accounts to more complex manufacturing, contracting, and processing risks. This position serves as a subject matter expert for complex excess and umbrella underwriting risks, providing technical guidance, referral authority, quality oversight, and underwriting support to field underwriters across the organization. Unlike a production underwriting position, this role focuses on technical expertise, underwriting quality, compliance, and risk management rather than building an individual book of business. The role emphasizes oversight, referral management, underwriting discipline, audits, regulatory compliance, and support of field underwriting teams.

To support this, employees in this role are expected to be on-site, in either the Cincinnati, OH or Marietta, GA office, four days a week, with the flexibility to work one day remotely. Core in-office days are Tuesday through Thursday, with the fourth day determined by business needs.

Support quality assurance initiatives through file reviews and underwriting audits.

Assist with SOX compliance activities and ensure adherence to regulatory and company requirements.

Collaborate with Legal, Compliance, Product Management, Claims, and Actuarial teams on underwriting and regulatory matters.

Travel occasionally (less than 10%) for audits, training, and business meetings.

Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Insurance, Risk Management, Finance, Business, or a related field. Generally, 10+ years of commercial casualty underwriting experience, including significant experience with Excess Liability and Umbrella business. Strong technical underwriting expertise with the ability to evaluate complex casualty risks and apply sound underwriting judgment. Working knowledge of underwriting guidelines, regulatory compliance, audits, and quality review processes. Excellent analytical, communication, and relationship-building skills, with the ability to influence decisions through technical expertise and collaboration.
