We are looking for a Global Process Coordination Lead for our Chief Underwriting Office Liability (m/f/d), based in London or Munich. 

  

The Impact You Will Have 

We are seeking a detail-oriented and organized professional to lead critical governance, process improvement, and communication initiatives within our Liability underwriting function for both Large and Mid Corporate segments. This role sits at the intersection of underwriting, compliance, and operational excellence, serving as a key liaison between underwriting leadership, the underwriting community, and our Underwriting Integrity and Solutions team. 

 

In this role, you will manage updates of our Liability Functional Rule, implement new underwriting tools and standards, and drive process simplification initiatives that enhance underwriting efficiency and effectiveness. 

 

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who thrives on bringing structure to complexity, enjoys cross-functional collaboration, and wants to make a tangible impact on underwriting operations. 

 

Some of your specific responsibilities could include: 

  • Lead the annual update of the Liability Functional Rule, ensuring alignment with regulatory requirements, stakeholder input, and internal governance standards. 

  • Coordinate with legal, compliance, and underwriting leadership to draft updates and manage the stakeholder consultation process. 

  • Act as the central point of contact for communicating underwriting rule changes, compliance updates, and process improvements to the global underwriting community. 

  • Manage Product Reviews (IDD, retail, and Large Corp), Business Reviews, ASU Reporting, and internal audit requirements. 

  • Oversee the implementation, maintenance, and testing of underwriting tools (e.g., Cube), including user training, feedback gathering, and technical refinements. 

  • Drive process simplification initiatives to enhance underwriting efficiency, including workflow optimization, change management, and benefits realization. 

  • Partner with the Underwriting Integrity and Solutions team on governance initiatives, quality assurance, and underwriting standards projects. 

  • Support underwriting audits, compliance reviews, and the development of best practices and guidelines. 

  • Own and manage the Liability Connect page (our intranet), ensuring resources, tools, and updates are current, accessible, and engaging. 

  • Organize and present content for internal reporting and contribute to Liability-specific projects and task forces.  

 

What You’ll Bring to the Role 

  • Extensive underwriting experience in Liability, with a strong understanding of policy management, underwriting processes, and legal contracts. 

  • A degree in Economics, Law, or a related discipline is preferred. 

  • Proven ability to set functional rules, guidelines, and underwriting standards. 

  • Strong knowledge of regulatory compliance and governance frameworks in underwriting. 

  • Proficiency in managing cross-functional projects and driving process improvements in a global environment. 

  • Strategic orientation with the ability to balance detail-oriented execution and big-picture thinking. 

  • Excellent communication and presentation skills in English, with the ability to translate complex concepts into actionable guidance. 

  • Strong problem-solving skills, adaptability, and attention to detail. 

  • Experience with underwriting tools and systems and the ability to support their implementation and optimization. 

  • Experience in applying artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to improve business processes and decision-making is highly beneficial. 

  • A collaborative mindset and the ability to work effectively with diverse teams across functions and geographies.
