This role sits at the intersection of program underwriting, portfolio management, and specialized property risk, with a strong emphasis on designing, scaling, and optimizing property-driven programs across niche and emerging industries.

The successful candidate will bring a blend of technical property underwriting expertise and program leadership experience, with the ability to build, evaluate, and evolve programs from both a portfolio and individual risk perspective. This includes influencing underwriting strategy, enhancing governance frameworks, and partnering with MGAs and brokers to deliver sustainable, profitable growth.

• Conduct holistic program reviews, including profitability, rate adequacy, CAT exposure, and long-term sustainability
• Drive portfolio segmentation strategies, identifying growth opportunities within specialized property niches (e.g., emerging industries, complex risk segments)
• Contribute to the creation, launch, and scaling of new programs, including development of underwriting guidelines and product wordings

Technical Property Underwriting Expertise

• Underwrite and guide complex commercial property risks, including large and non-standard exposures
• Apply deep understanding of property coverage, wordings, CAT modelling, and facultative reinsurance structures
• Support program partners in risk selection, pricing strategy, and coverage structuring to ensure alignment with Liberty's appetite
• Provide technical leadership on large accounts, high-value assets, and specialized property exposures

Broker & MGA Relationship Management

• Build and manage strong relationships with MGAs, brokers, and capacity partners
• Act as a trusted advisor, influencing underwriting practices and program strategies
• Collaborate on market expansion opportunities, including new distribution channels and niche sectors
• Ensure consistent service delivery and alignment of underwriting standards across delegated authorities

Governance, Audit & Performance Management

• Lead the review and governance of MGA and delegated underwriting authority agreements, ensuring compliance and alignment with risk appetite
• Oversee and enhance program audit protocols, including underwriting quality, claims trends, and financial performance
• Monitor portfolio performance using data-driven insights, actuarial inputs, and claims analysis
• Identify emerging trends and proactively implement corrective actions and underwriting adjustments

Strategy, Innovation & Growth

• Contribute to the national Programs strategy, with a focus on property-led growth segments
• Identify opportunities to expand into specialized industries (e.g., cannabis, manufacturing, niche property sectors)
• Champion innovation in program design, underwriting processes, and market positioning
• Support development of standardized frameworks, playbooks, and scalable underwriting models

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Partner closely with Actuarial, Risk Services, Claims, Reinsurance, and Legal to drive profitability
• Translate technical insights into actionable strategies for program partners and internal stakeholders
• Support internal knowledge sharing and elevate technical underwriting capability across the Programs team
• Applicable experience in casualty and/or financial lines, given that property-centric programs may include some of these elements

Skills & Qualifications:

• 7+ years of commercial P&C underwriting experience, with a strong emphasis on property underwriting and programs/portfolio management
• Demonstrated experience in:
• Building or managing insurance programs or niche segments
• Underwriting complex property risks and large accounts
