With more than two decades' experience building cyber insurance solutions and handling cyber claims our cyber team is one of the most established and experienced providers in the market.

About the role

As a Cyber Underwriter you will work closely with the Team Leader on UK and European territories focusing on SME business. You will be responsible for the day-to-day underwriting of cyber risks and everything that comes with it, including relationship management, broker development and at times work travel.

Excellent customer service is at the centre of everything we do, so an important part of our day is time spent on the phone with brokers. As well as underwriting of accounts and business development, you will have exposure to other teams within CFC including actuarial, claims and online platforms.

• Underwrite new business cyber policies and larger key renewals.

About you

We’re looking for driven, self-starters with a strong work ethic. You should be curious to learn and improve your underwriting ability and understanding of IT security. As one of the largest cyber underwriting teams in the world, we want people that work well as part of a team.

Previous cyber underwriting experience is not essential; however, you should bring a background in commercial underwriting or broking and demonstrate a strong willingness to learn.

You’ll be working at a fast pace and intensity that reflects the successful framework of the CFC business.

Core Values

Love what you do: We show up each day ready to take on the world. Our passion and intensity set us apart and makes the difference to our colleagues, customers, brokers and carriers.

Challenge everything: We’re never afraid to question the way that things are done and we constantly challenge ourselves and others to makes things better.

Have fun, be good: Insurance is a serious business, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We make it fun to work at CFC, we welcome all viewpoints, and we treat everyone how we would expect to be treated.
