This is an exciting opportunity to step into a Liability Underwriter role that offers a wealth of variety, challenge, and genuine impact. You’ll benefit from outstanding training, brilliant development opportunities, and a friendly, down-to-earth team culture that makes every day enjoyable.

As a Liability Underwriter, you’ll take ownership of your own portfolio, leading on select cases and shaping outcomes by assessing risks, negotiating terms, and delivering high-quality underwriting decisions that uphold NFU Mutual’s trusted principles and rigorous standards. You will be instrumental in delivering fair outcomes and exceptional service, forging strong relationships with agents, brokers, colleagues, and clients to not only meet expectations, but consistently raise the bar.

You’ll bring your expertise into client conversations, supporting agents and brokers in meetings to enhance customer value, strengthen relationships, and uphold NFU Mutual’s reputation as a trusted, customer-first insurer. Internally, this role is known as LCI Underwriter and it offers the chance to be part of a dynamic, supportive environment where your skills and ambition will truly be valued. If you’re ready for a role that rewards dedication and empowers you to make a real difference, we look forward to welcoming you to NFU Mutual.

The successful candidate will have experience underwriting large commercial liability risks gained within the UK general insurance market. This could be from an insurer or broker environment. You will be a strong communicator with the ability to build long lasting relationships. You will be able to influence decisions and adapt your communication style to effectively present information to a range of technical and non-technical audiences.

We hope you would also be able to demonstrate the following:

• Strong problem-solving skills
• A collaborative approach and the ability to work well within a team
• A strategic and forward-thinking mindset

Having a CII qualification or working towards would be desirable, however it is not essential and it is something we can support you to achieve should you join our organisation. At NFU Mutual, we support an inclusive workplace and value all the differences that make us unique. We celebrate the creativity and innovation that comes from diverse perspectives and experiences and share a common vision of doing the right thing for our customers and employees.
