Developmental Warranty Underwriter – EU Markets

Remote in UK or ROI

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced and commercially minded Warranty Business Development Underwriter to drive the growth of an EU warranty portfolio. While the position is UK/London-market based, the focus will be firmly on EU warranty business (not UK warranty business). This is a hybrid role, offering flexibility between market-facing activity, office presence, and remote working.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and grow the EU warranty underwriting portfolio, focusing on scalable and profitable opportunities.
  • Originate, structure, and underwrite warranty business across a range of product lines, including:
    • Phones, gadgets, and consumer electronics
    • Electrical goods and small domestic appliances (SDA)
    • Home assistance and roadside assistance
    • Embedded and opt-in warranty solutions
  • Build and maintain strong broker and distribution relationships in the London and wider UK market, with a view to expanding EU market presence.
  • Collaborate with senior management on strategy, product development, and pricing initiatives.
  • Leverage your existing portfolio of relationships and risks to deliver measurable premium growth.

About You

We’re looking for someone who combines deep underwriting expertise with a strong business development mindset:

  • At least 5+ years’ experience in warranty underwriting and business development.
  • Currently employed by a large carrier or a large to mid-size MGA specialising in warranty.
  • Proven track record of originating and underwriting warranty products with a demonstrable portfolio of risks and premiums.
  • Established network in the London/UK insurance market, with the ability to bring or attract quality business.
  • Entrepreneurial, commercially astute, and motivated by building something with real growth potential.

What’s on Offer

  • An opportunity to play a pivotal role in shaping and expanding an EU warranty footprint.
  • A flexible working environment, designed to suit both client-facing and home-based working.
  • A chance to make a tangible impact in a growing, entrepreneurial business with the backing of an ambitious and supportive team.
