If you have experience in Property Underwriting and are looking for a new challenge, we would love to hear from you.

Zurich Canada is currently looking for a Property Underwriting Specialist.

Supported by a dedicated local team of Underwriting Associates, Risk Engineers, Multinational Service Specialists, and an industry leading claims team, this is your opportunity to join a growing and highly successful organization.

This is a unique opportunity to build your knowledge and experience for the future in a supportive environment where your voice matters.

This is a hybrid work opportunity.

  • Préparer des soumissions, structurer des programmes et offrir des propositions conformes aux directives.
  • Interpréter les rapports d’ingénierie des risques et les recommandations associées.
  • Assurer la certitude contractuelle des soumissions et des libellés de polices émis.
  • Saisir et maintenir les informations sur les risques dans nos systèmes internes pour garantir l'intégrité des données.
  • Établir des relations de confiance avec les courtiers et les clients dans divers segments de l’industrie.
  • Constituer un portefeuille de nouvelles affaires cibles avec des partenaires de courtage clés.
  • Collaborer et encourager l'implication des domaines fonctionnels dans le processus de souscription (ingénierie des risques, sinistres, actuariat, finance, distribution et autres lignes d’affaire).
  • Fournir des conseils techniques, une assistance et une formation aux souscripteurs de niveau inférieur. Agir en tant que mentor.
