Underwriting Risk Officer
We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Underwriting Risk Officer to join our dynamic finance team.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide risk assessment insights on various technical and underwriting topics, including pricing strategies, underwriting processes, performance analysis, governance, and product approval frameworks.
- Act as a second line of defense by closely monitoring portfolio performance, collaborating with underwriting teams, reviewing underwriting guidelines, and supporting the risk management lead in deal validation processes.
- Enhance pricing methodologies by promoting advanced modeling techniques (such as GLM and segmentation approaches) and conducting back-testing analyses on key pricing assumptions (frequency, claims costs, operational expenses).
- Contribute actively to strategic projects involving underwriting considerations at the group level.
- Serve as a key liaison, ensuring smooth coordination between central underwriting teams, local and regional underwriting functions, and commercial teams across the organization.
We are looking for a dynamic and analytical professional with strong communication skills and a solid foundation in financial principles. You should be comfortable handling data, have a keen eye for detail, and be eager to contribute to risk assessment and underwriting strategies.
Skills & Experience
- A higher education degree in economics, mathematics, or a related field. An actuarial qualification is a plus.
- Minimum two years of experience in a similar role, preferably in pricing or underwriting.
- Strong understanding of pricing techniques and the non-life insurance sector (experience in assistance insurance would be a plus).
- Familiarity with industry standards, including product structures, guarantees, and underwriting processes.
- Advanced Excel and Access skills; proficiency in R or Python would be an asset.
- Fluent English (spoken and written) is required, while French is an advantage.
Personal Qualities
- A collaborative mindset, capable of working effectively within a team.
- Ability to provide proactive and reactive guidance on underwriting topics, addressing challenges as they arise.
- Strong communication and argumentation skills, able to present complex technical concepts clearly.
- A solution-oriented approach, anticipating potential issues and proposing improvements.
- A curious and autonomous spirit, with a desire to explore innovative approaches.
- Flexibility and adaptability, thriving in an international and multicultural environment.
- Comfortable working remotely while maintaining strong engagement with the team. Although the position allows for geographical flexibility, occasional travel to Brussels (4 to 6 times per year) will be required to collaborate directly with colleagues.
If you are looking for a role where you can apply your analytical skills, deepen your expertise in underwriting and pricing, and be part of a dynamic team, we encourage you to apply!
