Lloyd’s Market
High-Growth Syndicate

A rare opportunity has arisen to join a fast-growing Lloyd’s syndicate as a Syndicate Manager (Operations), working closely with an experienced leadership team to help drive the operational performance and strategic growth of the business.

This is a unique role within a lean and ambitious syndicate environment, offering broad exposure across underwriting operations, MI, systems, and business planning. The successful candidate will work alongside senior operational leadership, playing a key role in supporting the syndicate’s growth journey 

This position would suit an ambitious insurance professional looking to take the next step into a senior operational role within a Lloyd’s syndicate.

This is a rapidly growing Lloyd’s syndicate with ambitious growth plans and strong financial backing, providing direct access to a substantial international distribution network.

The syndicate has experienced significant growth in recent years and is on a strong upward trajectory, with long-term ambitions to exceed $1bn GWP.

Operating with a lean structure, many back-office functions are outsourced to a turnkey managing agent, allowing the internal team to focus on underwriting performance, operational excellence and strategic growth.

Working as part of a small and collaborative operational team, you will support the design and delivery of key operational processes and reporting frameworks across the syndicate.

This is a highly visible role offering exposure to all areas of a Lloyd’s syndicate and the opportunity to work directly with senior market leaders.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Designing and producing management information and performance reporting

• Supporting syndicate business planning and forecasting

• Developing and improving operational processes

• Supporting data capture, data quality and reporting frameworks

• Supporting IT and systems development initiatives

• Working closely with outsourced providers to ensure efficient operational delivery

• Supporting credit control oversight

• Supporting risk and compliance processes

• Contributing to operational strategy as the syndicate grows

• Supporting operational projects and change initiatives

You will be an ambitious and commercially minded insurance professional with strong operational experience and a desire to develop into a senior leadership role.

You will ideally have experience within the Lloyd’s market and be comfortable working in a fast-paced and evolving environment.

We are particularly interested in individuals who combine strong analytical ability with a practical and hands-on approach.

Key requirements include:

• Strong insurance market experience (Lloyd’s experience preferred)

• Experience producing and analysing management information

• Understanding of insurance operations and processes

• Strong data and reporting skills

• Experience working with insurance systems or operational platforms
