The Big Picture

This is a specialty insurance platform operating across dealer solutions and underwriting programs, backed by a strong balance sheet and active growth across multiple product lines. With operations centralized in Overland Park, the firm is continuing to build out its underwriting capability—bringing together technical underwriting with closer alignment to distribution and broker relationships.

The Mission

Own and grow a book of business within a structure that removes friction between underwriting and distribution. This role exists to give underwriters direct visibility into both risk selection and the relationships driving deal flow—allowing for cleaner execution, faster decisions, and stronger long-term portfolio performance.

The Daily Grind (The Good Kind)

• Book Ownership: Build and manage a profitable portfolio with full visibility into how your book performs over time.
• Risk Selection: Underwrite and structure deals across your assigned segment, balancing growth with disciplined selection.
• Broker Alignment: Maintain direct relationships with brokers and agents tied to your book, keeping deal flow consistent and actionable.
• Opportunity Capture: Stay close to submissions and renewals, capturing opportunities already within your workflow without added layers.
• Portfolio Strategy: Understand how your book fits into the broader platform and adjust accordingly to maintain profitability.

Your Toolkit

• The Battle Scars: Experience in commercial underwriting, MGA environments, or broker-side roles with exposure to risk selection and portfolio management.
• Technical Mastery: Strong underwriting fundamentals with the ability to evaluate risk, structure deals, and maintain disciplined growth.
• Detail Threshold: Ability to manage both volume and complexity without letting one compromise the other.
• Communication Edge: Comfortable working directly with brokers and internal stakeholders to move deals forward without friction.

The Payoff

• Professional Autonomy: Own your book with the ability to make decisions that directly impact performance and results.
• Culture & Trajectory: Join a platform actively investing in underwriting talent, with room to scale both book size and responsibility over time.
• Competitive Package: 110K – 180K+ total comp with meaningful upside tied to book performance. Additional earnings are driven by results you are already influencing, not separate sales functions.
