Job Description

  • Permanent full time role
  • Coach and mentor other underwriters, sharing your technical knowledge and helping build capability across the team
  • Support continuous improvement while maintaining strong underwriting, risk, and governance disciplines
  • Melbourne CBD location / hybrid wfh

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Underwriter to join our national Strata team. This is an opportunity to combine your technical underwriting expertise with relationship building, commercial thinking, and coaching, while helping us deliver sustainable, profitable growth. You’ll work closely with brokers and colleagues across Distribution, Claims, Pricing & Analytics, Actuarial, Risk Engineering, Reinsurance, Finance, and other underwriting teams. You’ll also have the opportunity to share your expertise and support the development of less experienced underwriters. Join Vero Specialty Lines and help shape the future of our Strata portfolio.

What you’ll do:

In this role, you’ll:

  • Underwrite and negotiate new business, renewals, and mid-term policy adjustments across our Strata portfolio.
  • Apply your technical expertise to complex Strata risks, setting appropriate terms and conditions in line with risk appetite and delegated underwriting authority.
  • Build strong, collaborative relationships with brokers and help deliver a responsive, solutions-focused service.
  • Support the Strata go-to-market and distribution strategy, identifying opportunities to strengthen existing relationships and grow the portfolio.
  • Partner with Risk Engineering, Claims, and other specialist teams to deliver positive outcomes for brokers and customers.
  • Contribute to broker training, industry events and conversations about emerging market and regulatory trends.

What you’ll bring:

You’ll ideally have:

  • At least five years’ Strata underwriting experience, with demonstrated experience underwriting complex Strata accounts.
  • Strong technical knowledge of Strata insurance, underwriting principles, risk appetite and delegated underwriting authority.
  • An understanding of reinsurance and risk engineering as they relate to Strata underwriting.
  • Strong relationship-building, communication, influencing, and negotiation skills, particularly when working with brokers and internal stakeholders.
  • Commercial judgement and the ability to balance customer needs, risk, and profitable portfolio outcomes.
  • Experience in Commercial Strata underwriting, previous experience in a senior Strata underwriting role, coaching or mentoring experience, and a relevant degree in Business, Commerce, Insurance or a related field would be highly regarded rather than essential.

Why this role?

You’ll be part of the Vero Specialty Lines team, working across a broad network of underwriting and insurance specialists. The role offers the opportunity to influence broker relationships, contribute to the growth of the Strata portfolio and develop others through coaching and knowledge sharing.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
