Job Description

AmTrust is a global insurance provider offering risk-management solutions and business underwriting. Today AmTrust International underwrites over $1.5 billion of gross written premiums and employs more than 800 employees globally.

We are currently looking for an Underwriter, to join our team based out of our London office. This role sits within our Specialty business supporting the underwriting and development of AmTrust's Legal Expenses Insurance portfolio, with exposure to risks across the UK, Canada, Australia and the US.

This is a unique opportunity to join a highly regarded team working on a diverse range of legal expenses and capital protection risks. From small insolvency matters through to complex, high-value class action cases, you'll gain exposure to a broad and varied caseload while working closely with experienced specialists across underwriting, legal and claims. No two days are the same, making this an excellent opportunity for someone looking to take on a new challenge, broaden their expertise and build a long-term career within a specialist insurance market.

To be successful in this role, you'll ideally have a law degree and a strong background in litigation, gained within a law firm, legal practice or insurance-related environment. We're looking for someone with established litigation experience, strong commercial awareness and the ability to manage matters independently while working collaboratively as part of a team. Experience working on insurance-related matters is important, whether that has been directly within the insurance sector or through acting on behalf of insurers and handling insurance-backed cases. You'll also have a genuine interest in developing specialist expertise within legal expenses underwriting and be excited by the opportunity to work across a diverse range of complex and high-value matters.
