Lead Underwriter

Personal lines make up about 70 percent of premium. This is a backfill for a team member who moved to another team. We want an underwriter who can say no clearly and say yes with the right terms. We are headquartered in Fremont and have been hiring remotely since 2020. This is a full-time remote role. We use an employer of record in Belgium, so you get a proper employment contract, not a freelance agreement. You will need at least 3 hours of overlap with US Pacific time. Day-to-day communication is in Slack and Google Meet.

• Re-underwrite renewals for loss trends, exposure changes and rate adequacy.
• Track production, hit ratio and loss ratio for your book monthly.

What you'll need:

• Clear written underwriting rationale.
• Able to travel up to 20% for agency visits.
