Technical Underwriter - Care
Leeds, Manchester or Birmingham
Hybrid (3 days office / 2 days home)

Shape the future of one of the UK's largest specialist Care portfolios !

At Markel, we're not looking for someone to simply underwrite risks.
We're looking for someone who wants to influence portfolio performance, shape underwriting strategy, challenge traditional thinking, and become a trusted technical leader within one of the most important areas of our business.

As our new Technical Underwriter - Care, you'll work alongside the Head of Care, supporting the management and development of our largest portfolio, a book that represents approximately one-third of our UK business. This is a newly created role designed to provide senior technical expertise, portfolio oversight and underwriting leadership, while creating genuine progression opportunities into future product leadership positions.

If you're an experienced commercial underwriter looking for a role that goes beyond day-to-day case underwriting, this could be the perfect next step.

Why This Role is Different:

This isn't a traditional underwriting position focused solely on processing referrals and quoting business. You'll become a key technical authority within the Care portfolio, helping to:

Support the highest-level underwriting referrals and technical decisions
Influence portfolio performance and profitability
Drive underwriting improvements and efficiencies
Support underwriting governance and trading strategy
Coach and support underwriting teams across the business
Challenge existing ways of working and help shape future solutions
Work closely with senior stakeholders across Underwriting, Claims, Actuarial and Distribution.

Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to make a visible impact on a strategically important portfolio while learning directly from one of the most experienced product leaders in the business.

What You'll Be Doing:

Working closely with the Head of Care and wider underwriting leadership team, you'll:

Technical Underwriting & Referral Authority

Review and support the most complex and high-value underwriting referrals
Act as a senior technical point of contact for the Care portfolio
Provide expert underwriting guidance and decision-making support
Support delegated authority and underwriting governance activities

Portfolio Management & Performance

Help manage and monitor overall portfolio performance
Analyse trends and identify opportunities for profitable growth
Support strategic underwriting decisions
Contribute to portfolio development initiatives and product enhancements

Stakeholder Engagement

Build strong relationships across underwriting teams and business functions.
Support and coach underwriters on technical matters.
Work with internal teams and external partners to improve outcomes.
Act as an ambassador for technical excellence across the business.

Continuous Improvement

Challenge existing processes and identify better ways of working
Support innovation and efficiency initiatives
Help reduce complexity while maintaining strong underwriting discipline
Contribute to the ongoing evolution of our Care proposition

What We're Looking For:

Essential

Significant commercial underwriting experience.
Strong technical underwriting capability.
Experience handling complex referrals and larger risks.
Knowledge of commercial liability and/or property insurance.
Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
The confidence to challenge constructively and influence others.
A desire to drive improvement and make an impact.

Highly Desirable

Care sector underwriting experience.
Experience within commercial combined business.
Exposure to portfolio management activities.
Experience working with delegated authority business.
CII qualifications or willingness to continue professional studies.

Who This Role Would Suit:

You might currently be a:

Senior Underwriter
Technical Underwriter
Development Underwriter
Portfolio Underwriter
Commercial Combined Underwriter

And you're looking for:

Greater influence and responsibility
Exposure to portfolio management and strategy
A role beyond day-to-day underwriting
A pathway towards future Product Head or leadership opportunities
The opportunity to help shape how underwriting is delivered in the future

Why Join Markel?

Income protection
Travel insurance
Funded professional qualifications including CII
