The role shall include liaising regularly with a panel of brokers, ensuring that strong working relationships are formed; undertaking relevant underwriting tasks; and assisting the Head of Cyber with product development, ensuring rapid growth and success for this specialised area of underwriting.
You will also take part (in conjunction with the London Market Cyber U/W Manager and Head of Cyber) in the training, education and development of team members.
