FM is a leading property insurer of the world's largest businesses, providing more than one-third of FORTUNE 1000-size companies with engineering-based risk management and property insurance solutions. FM helps clients maintain continuity in their business operations by drawing upon state-of-the-art loss-prevention engineering and research; risk management skills and support services; tailored risk transfer capabilities; and superior financial strength. To do so, we rely on a dynamic, culturally diverse group of employees, working in more than 100 countries, in a variety of challenging roles.

Consider this opportunity to take a role with global impact, build an international network of contacts, and impact the future of underwriting within FM’s Specialty Industries portfolio – Mining, Molten Materials, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Power Generation, Pulp & Paper, Semiconductor and Digital.

Could you take what you have learned from underwriting specialty industry accounts, and apply it to a portfolio of 100 accounts or more? Are you interested in developing specialist knowledge about emerging risk and actively figuring out how to underwrite it profitably? Are you comfortable handling risk transfer decisions related to large, volatile and complex manufacturing risks, and could you share your knowledge with others?

We are looking for a self-starter with operations experience to join our group of principal underwriters that operates out of All Risk Underwriting. You would lead up to two industry segments for portfolio analysis, capacity and linesetting, pricing strategies, and development of underwriting requirements that support the company’s profit and growth objectives.

To do this well you will be constantly learning and asking questions, collaborating with your team, principal engineers and members of other corporate staff departments, as well as individuals from operations to research and develop underwriting requirements and related procedures.

You will provide leadership and guidance to operations underwriters, ensuring necessary support is available and impacts are understood prior to implementation. And from there, support thoughtful underwriting exceptions, ensuring a consistent application of risk selection and underwriting judgment within your assigned portfolio.

In addition, you will travel for 2 or 3 operations underwriting audits per year; provide underwriting training to others, assist in the development of new coverages and products in response to changing customer needs; and contribute your ideas for the continuous improvement of the underwriting process and systems development.
