Overview
This financially strong PLC has a proud history, and is one of the Yorkshire business community’s great success stories. It delivers phenomenal profits across a specialist range of divisions, and continues to grow both organically and through well thought out, complimentary acquisitions. Despite its growth over generations, and whilst it has invested in state-of-the-art infrastructure, systems and processes, in many ways it still feels like a family-run business; there’s a real team environment, and the lack of red tape allows it to adapt quickly to market changes. It also takes its corporate social responsibility very seriously. The role of Group Insurance Manager is a new position within the company, and as such, the finer points of the role can be tweaked to suit your skills, experience and ambitions. The role is centred around managing the Group’s insurance arrangements; currently a multi-million pound gross written premium programme. As you would expect from such a complex entity, it spans a range of covers including Property, Director’s & Officers, Cyber, Pension Trustees’ Liability and Airside Liability, amongst others. You will continually assess all areas of the Group’s activities, identifying exposures and, where gaps in cover exist, bring these to the attention of the Senior Management Team. You will also be acting as the main point of contact for all internal and external stakeholders (including Brokers, Underwriters, Solicitors etc.) for any insurance enquires regarding the Group. Managing the renewal of the insurance programme will be another key duty; you will be responsible for liaising with colleagues from all areas of the business to collate information, coordinate the renewal, hold policy review meetings, and drive cost savings whilst obtaining comprehensive cover. As you would expect from a Group with complex exposures and large Fleets, claims coordination is a key responsibility for this role. Whilst many of the individual claims will be managed by colleagues (such as the Fleet Manager), you will oversee losses, identify trends, chair review meetings, have involvement in some specific (complex, large or contentious) files, and ensure claims are satisfactory resolved by insurance partners. You must be an experienced insurance professional, and we welcome applications from those who currently work in an 'inhouse’ Insurance Manager capacity, or from Corporate Account Handlers, Account & Claims Executives and Underwriters who have a solid background in dealing with complex companies and a knowledge of a wide variety of commercial covers. You must have excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, be well-organised and detail-orientated, and have excellent task management skills. You must also have excellent report writing abilities; able to collate and interpret large volumes of MI, and be able to relay how this can affect the Group and its insurance programme. In return, you will receive a competitive basic salary (entirely negotiate) and a generous basic salary, along with a comprehensive array of company benefits.
