Underwriting Hub Deputy Manager

Underwriting Hub, Deputy Manager

Location : Dublin

XL Insurance Company SE (XLICSE) is a wholly owned subsidiary within AXA XL and provides the main insurance company platform for AXA XL within Europe and Asia Pacific, operating through an international network of branches, subsidiaries and third party fronting partners.

We are looking for an individual to be based in Dublin, with the ability to manage a diverse and complex portfolio of insurance business, generated by traditional London Market distribution sources.

AXA XL writes a substantial portfolio of EU business from the UK which relies upon Freedom of Services. This portfolio is very diverse including Property, Casualty, Specialty and Professional Lines; and written through multiple distribution sources (wholesale, retail, delegated authority etc). Post Brexit, AXA XL’s solution to continue writing this business has been via leveraging our European insurance Carrier (XLICSE) based in Dublin.

The Underwriting Hub Deputy Manager works with our UK underwriting teams to review new and renewal business (which was historically written onto our UK legal Entities), and assess for alignment with XLICSE’s business plan and risk appetite.

The Underwriting Hub Deputy Manager receives support from our London based team and has ultimate authority to bind risks on behalf of XLICSE.
