Underwriting Manager

May 2017 - August 2017

Compass Underwriting Limited

May 2017 - August 2017

I was responsible for overall management of the underwriting department including oversight of
underwriting performance and new business. My role was extremely varied, but my main responsibilities included:-
- Management of team; managing a team of seven individuals both office and home based. Involved training junior team
members, completing performance reviews, assessing capabilities in order to assign or increase underwriting authority and
acting as a point of reference for more complex matters.
- Underwriting Performance: responsibility for ensuring compliance with binding authority agreements and performance of
each underlying book of business and the company. As an MGA with a very varied book of business, I had to design my own
suite of reports to enable tracking of income against plan, key conduct metrics (such as cancellation rate), new business and
retention rates.
- Processes and Procedures: responsibility for identifying and rectifying areas of non-compliance and improving existing
processes. I performed a Gap-Analysis of the current operating procedures against Lloyd's Minimum Standards and MS11 in
order to identify areas of weakness. To address, I implemented a peer review process, quality assurance file checks and
conduct risk assessments for all new products as part of the product design process. I also developed written procedures for
each product in order to ensure consistency.
- Policy Fulfilment: overall responsibility for policy documentation (including schedules, invoices, policy wordings, IPID's and Key
Facts, where still appropriate). All product fulfilment documentation was reviewed and updated to ensure compliance (for
example data protection and Brexit related requirements) and performance of the business. I was also responsible for the
ensuring that IPID documents were implemented in a timely fashion.
- Online Sales Platform: design, build and maintenance of online “quote & buy” systems for us and our Appointed
Representatives. Approximately 15 sites on which our products were sold, all were kept fully up to date and compliant with
the most recent regulations, taxes, premium rates and policy wordings. Procedure guides for maintenance and instruction
guides users were designed for distribution during onboarding process.
In addition to the above items ad-hoc projects were undertaken, including:-
1. Replacing capacity for all life and non-life products. This included assessing performance of the business and re-underwriting
where necessary, writing business plans and forecasts to enable marketing of the binding authorities, broking our proposals
to the market, re-writing the policy wording for each product, re-building our online platforms and putting together updated
process manuals and training guides for each party involved in the distribution chain.

2. Gaining Lloyd's Broker status. Took the application through the process which included completing competency tests required
by Xchanging. I had ongoing oversight of separate company “Compass International” including drafting binding authorities,
managing relationships with carriers (including managing exposure to individual carriers), designing processes and
procedures for processing of premiums and claims via Xchanging including managing conflicts of interest. I also managed the
Broker Technician (premium and claims) and acted as their point of reference.
