Strong workload, capacity and prioritisation skills within a fast-paced operational or service environment.
Ability to use KPIs and operational data to identify issues, manage performance and support resourcing decisions.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
Experience improving processes and supporting operational change.
A proactive approach to problem-solving with sound judgement around when escalation is required.
Experience within insurance or financial services, ideally within underwriting operations or an underwriting support environment.
Knowledge of commercial insurance processes, the Lloyd’s or London Market, or systems such as EPIC or Lineage would be advantageous.
