Description

As an Executive Underwriter, you’ll be the expert our internal partners turn to for guidance on complex insurance risks. You’ll collaborate closely with Underwriters across the country to craft tailored solutions and manage highly specialized portfolios, ensuring that everything aligns with national standards for data quality and service.

In this role, you’ll be a trusted advisor and a go-to resource for teams across Actuarial, Claims, Reinsurance, and Systems. You’ll be known for your responsiveness, attention to detail, and ability to provide clear written guidance to support smart risk assessment and decision-making.

What you bring

We’re looking for someone who thrives on solving complex challenges and guiding others with expertise and clarity. The ideal candidate will have senior level expertise in construction underwriting risks.

You excel at:

  • Underwriting complex risks (EIL experience is an asset)
  • Problem-solving and critical thinking
  • Strong written communication
  • Providing operational leadership and mentorship

You have:

  • 10+ years of underwriting experience ( preferably in construction sector)
  • CIP, FCIP, or RPLU designation (completed or in progress)
  • A background in delivering exceptional service
  • A collaborative, team-first mindset

About the Company:

This opportunity is with an organization that truly puts people first. They offer a supportive and balanced work environment with a hybrid model (50/50 split between home and office) and a competitive compensation package that includes base salary, pension, RRSP, employee share purchase plan, and staff insurance discounts. From day one, employees benefit from flexible health coverage, wellness programs, early leave days, and rewards and recognition initiatives. The company is equally committed to professional growth, providing education assistance for CIP, FCIP, CRM, and other programs, along with leadership training, mentorship, and strong internal mobility. Beyond the workplace, they emphasize community impact through donation matching and volunteer days, giving employees the chance to support causes that matter most to them.
