Senior Underwriter
- .
- Requirements: Could be "What you’ll bring" includes abilities and skills: Effective relationships within National and Regional brokerages. Some years of progressive underwriting experience, including umbrella & excess casualty. Experience underwriting construction casualty risks, including general contractors, trade contractors, and project-specific exposures, is preferred but not required. Thorough knowledge of commercial insurance coverages and contracts. Experience working hands-on with actuarial colleagues. Effective project and time-management skills. Effective sales, marketing and negotiation skills. Excellent written and oral communication skills. Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent experience.
We could split into Requirements (experience, education) and Qualifications (maybe degree) and Skills (soft skills). But we can combine into one section "Requirements" or separate as per headings list. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have multiple sections. We need to decide what content goes where.
We have:
- Requirements: maybe "Some years of progressive underwriting experience, including umbrella & excess casualty." and "Experience underwriting construction casualty risks, including general contractors, trade contractors, and project-specific exposures, is preferred but not required." and "Thorough knowledge of commercial insurance coverages and contracts." and "Experience working hands-on with actuarial colleagues." and "Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent experience."
- Qualifications: maybe not separate; but we could treat "Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent experience" as Qualification.
- Skills: "Effective relationships within National and Regional brokerages." "Effective project and time-management skills." "Effective sales, marketing and negotiation skills." "Excellent written and oral communication skills."
But also "Effective relationships within National and Regional brokerages." could be skill.
We need to avoid filler like "Some years of progressive underwriting experience" is vague but it's specific enough? It says "Some years". That's vague but it's still a requirement. The instruction says never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). "Some years" is vague but not exactly placeholder like "commensurate with experience". It's still a requirement but maybe acceptable. We'll keep.
Now Benefits: we need to extract substantive benefits: competitive retirement savings plan, health and wellness programs, many other benefits, learning opportunities, enhanced family-friendly leave benefits, flexible working arrangements, five business resource groups, etc. Also "Total Rewards" includes competitive compensation and personalized inclusive benefits that evolve as you do. Also "We strive for market alignment and internal equity with our colleagues’ pay." Also "We are proud to offer benefits such as a competitive retirement savings plan, health and wellness programs, and many other benefits." Also "We also believe in fostering our colleagues' development and offer a wide range of learning opportunities for colleagues to hone their professional skills and to position themselves for the next step of their careers."
We should not include boilerplate like "AXA XL is an Equal Opportunity Employer." That's EEO. Remove.
Also "Inclusion AXA XL is committed to equal employment opportunity..." remove that sentence but keep the specific programs? The sentence includes EEO statement; we should remove that whole sentence. The bullet points after that maybe still okay. But we need to ensure we don't keep any EEO language. The bullet list includes "Five Business Resource Groups focused on gender, LGBTQ+, ethnicity and origins, disability and inclusion with 20 Chapters around the globe." That's not EEO. "Robust support for Flexible Working Arrangements" okay. "Enhanced family-friendly leave benefits" okay. "Named to the Diversity Best Practices Index" okay. "Signatory to the UK Women in Finance Charter" okay. So we can keep those as benefits.
But we need to avoid duplication: we already have "competitive retirement savings plan, health and wellness programs, many other benefits" from Total Rewards section. Also "learning opportunities". Also "Enhanced family-friendly leave benefits", "Flexible Working Arrangements", "Business Resource Groups". We'll combine.
Pay: include salary range.
Schedule: none.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /. Use

with the salary range. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID/requisition numbers. Now let's extract exact sentences. About the role: The first paragraph: "AXA XL's Excess Casualty business unit offers Umbrella and Excess Liability coverage to North American based Insureds. Underwriting teams are based in the United States, Bermuda and Canada. Coverage is written on an occurrence, claims-made or occurrence reported basis. Our broad range of appetite includes clients in manufacturing, retail, hospitality, real estate, banking, wholesale distribution and many more." We'll keep that as a
. Responsibilities: The bullet list after "What you’ll be doing". The lines: - Market and solicit new business opportunities from retail broker partners. - Analyze submission data including applications, policy wording, inspection reports, loss runs, and financial reports while conducting appropriate research to determine degree of risk for each account. - Utilize underwriting tools including exposure, experience and industry ratings to analyze complex casualty exposure. - Underwrite and manage a portfolio of complex casualty risks across a broad range of industries, including construction, manufacturing, real estate, hospitality, retail, and wholesale distribution. - Adhere to underwriting guidelines, underwriting authorities and referral requirements as needed to regional management, product management and chief underwriting officers. - Collaborate with internal colleagues in the assessment of current and prospective risks, including actuarial, claims, legal and risk engineering. - Pro-active service of business in conjunction with our Middle Office to ensure timely and accurate delivery of quotations, binders, policies and endorsements. - Cross-sell with other business units including primary casualty, property and other professional lines to maximize deployment of AXA XL’s capital. - Monitor trends within the Marketplace to ensure we stay aware and ahead of emerging issues. - Contribute to regional planning through the development and execution of your own annual desk-level underwriting plan. - Travel throughout the territory (20%) for client, broker and internal meetings. - You will report to the U.S. Underwriting Manager for Excess Casualty.
