  • Brokers trust and value this market, ensuring strong deal flow and long-term success.
What You’ll Do:
  • Manage underwriting decisions – handling renewals, pricing, and risk selection.
  • Strengthen broker relationships, ensuring this syndicate remains their first call.
  • Develop into a leadership role, shaping underwriting decisions, pricing strategies, and portfolio direction over time.
