Trainee brokers are entry-level professionals who are learning the fundamentals of buying and selling financial products, such as stocks, bonds, or insurance, under the supervision of experienced brokers. Their responsibilities typically include assisting senior brokers, studying financial markets, learning compliance regulations, and developing client relationships. The goal of a trainee broker is to gain the necessary skills, knowledge, and certifications to eventually become a fully qualified broker.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a trainee broker?

To thrive as a Trainee Broker, you need a solid understanding of financial markets, strong numerical skills, and typically a bachelor’s degree in finance, economics, or a related field. Familiarity with trading platforms, financial modeling tools, and regulatory systems is also essential, and relevant certifications like the Series 7 or equivalent may be required. Outstanding communication, resilience under pressure, and attention to detail are crucial soft skills for building client relationships and handling complex transactions.

Underwriter Trainee

RSUI Group

Atlanta, GA • On-site

Full-time

Re-posted 5 hours ago


Job description

Launch Your Underwriting Career at RSUI
RSUI is hiring for a summer 2027 class of Underwriter Trainees in Atlanta, Georgia!
If you're finishing your degree and determining your underwriting career path, we'd like to make a case for commercial Excess and Surplus (E&S) insurance. And more specifically - for RSUI.
RSUI is a wholesale specialty insurance carrier, which means we work exclusively through wholesale brokers to insure risks that fall outside the standard market. It's a relationship-driven, expertise-first world where creative problem solvers thrive and no two days look quite the same. We're looking for a talented group of Underwriter Trainees - driven, curious college graduates who are ready to learn this business from the inside out.
The Program
Our paid, full-time Underwriter Trainee Academy is an approximate 12-month, rotational experience designed to give you a hands-on introduction to specialty underwriting - and to RSUI holistically. You won't be shadowing from the sidelines. You'll be right there in the game.
Over the course of the program, you'll rotate through each of our underwriting product lines, spending approximately four weeks with each, as well as rotations through our key support departments. By the time you finish, you'll have a working knowledge of how our business operates, and a clear sense of where you fit best within it.
This isn't a one-size-fits-all experience. We'll pay attention to what excites you, where your strengths show up, and what product line sparks your curiosity - and we'll shape the program around that as much as possible.
What You'll Do
  • Rotate through RSUI's underwriting product lines and support departments, building context and connections at every stop
  • Work alongside experienced underwriters who are generous with their time and invested in your growth
  • Attend underwriting meetings and observe how decisions get made on complex, specialty risks
  • Complete an individual capstone project that addresses a real business challenge and present takeaways to RSUI's executive leadership
  • Join broker seminars and occasional marketing trips, getting early exposure to the relationship side of this business
  • Complete training and development touchpoints focused on both technical and soft skills, including a path toward relevant insurance designations

The Path from Here
Trainees who complete the program and demonstrate the skillset, judgment, and work ethic we're looking for will be well-positioned to transition into an Associate Underwriter role - RSUI's foundational underwriting position and the launchpad for a full underwriting career here.
We aim to provide a personalized and meaningful experience. Those who go through this program will get face time, mentorship, and real opportunities.
What We're Looking For
  • A college degree completed before August 1, 2027 - all majors are welcome. A background in Risk Management & Insurance, Finance, or a related business field is a plus, as is any demonstrated interest in underwriting through coursework, internships, or hands-on experience.
  • A history of high achievement with an always-learning mentality and the work ethic to back it up
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills - you're someone people enjoy working with and learn to rely on
  • Comfort working independently and managing your own time and priorities, while also collaborating with your team and cross-functionally throughout RSUI

About RSUI
RSUI Group, Inc. is a Berkshire Hathaway company established in 1988 and headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. We operate exclusively in the wholesale specialty market, which means our underwriters build deep expertise and strong relationships. Our culture is high-performance and team-oriented, and we invest meaningfully in the development of our people.
During the training program, trainees will work five days per week in our Atlanta office. Upon transitioning to the Associate Underwriter role, this position follows RSUI's standard hybrid schedule of three days per week in office.
We're ready to invest in the next generation of underwriters at RSUI. If you're up for the challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
