CKB Recruitment Ltd

Development Underwriter (Property)East London£70,000–£100,000 + bonus

Here’s an opportunity to fast-track your career into a senior leadership position while earning a substantial package from day one.

With hybrid working, you can balance time in East London with remote days to suit your lifestyle. This setup gives you the flexibility to focus when you need it, without sacrificing face-to-face collaboration.

The real kicker? You’ll be directly on track to become Deputy Head of Underwriting within 12 to 18 months as the business scales, giving you a clear next step without the usual waiting around.

This is a commercially focused position where you’ll represent the business with authority, build strong broker relationships and have a direct hand in shaping the underwriting approach. You’re not just processing risk—you’re influencing strategy and growing the business from the front.

It’s a relationship-led role, backed by strong technical underwriting foundations. You’ll work closely with key brokers, identify profitable opportunities, and help onboard new partners across the UK. There’s travel involved, but it’s the kind that expands your network and influence - not just ticking boxes.

And behind it all, you’ll have access to a solid benefits package: private medical, pension, and a performance-related bonus that recognises your impact.

What you’ll do

You’ll act as a senior representative of the MGA to brokers and capacity partners, building and maintaining strong relationships with key regional and independent commercial brokers.

You'll identify profitable books suitable for transfer, support onboarding of new broker partners and conduct broker visits. As such you must be happy to travel across the UK when needed.

What you’ll need
  • You must have a good commercial or Residential Property underwriting background, ideally from an MGA or Underwriting Agency with a trading or development underwriting background
  • You must be a real people person, who is bright, and outgoing and able to sell/build relationships
