Key Responsibilities

  • Provide risk assessment insights on various technical and underwriting topics, including pricing strategies, underwriting processes, performance analysis, governance, and product approval frameworks.
  • Act as a second line of defense by closely monitoring portfolio performance, collaborating with underwriting teams, reviewing underwriting guidelines, and supporting the risk management lead in deal validation processes.
  • Enhance pricing methodologies by promoting advanced modeling techniques (such as GLM and segmentation approaches) and conducting back-testing analyses on key pricing assumptions (frequency, claims costs, operational expenses).
  • Contribute actively to strategic projects involving underwriting considerations at the group level.
  • Serve as a key liaison, ensuring smooth coordination between central underwriting teams, local and regional underwriting functions, and commercial teams across the organization.

Skills & Experience

  • A higher education degree in economics, mathematics, or a related field. An actuarial qualification is a plus.
  • Minimum two years of experience in a similar role, preferably in pricing or underwriting.
  • Strong understanding of pricing techniques and the non-life insurance sector (experience in assistance insurance would be a plus).
  • Familiarity with industry standards, including product structures, guarantees, and underwriting processes.
  • Advanced Excel and Access skills; proficiency in R or Python would be an asset.
  • Fluent English (spoken and written) is required, while French is an advantage.

Personal Qualities

  • A collaborative mindset, capable of working effectively within a team.
  • Ability to provide proactive and reactive guidance on underwriting topics, addressing challenges as they arise.
  • Strong communication and argumentation skills, able to present complex technical concepts clearly.
  • A solution-oriented approach, anticipating potential issues and proposing improvements.
  • A curious and autonomous spirit, with a desire to explore innovative approaches.
  • Flexibility and adaptability, thriving in an international and multicultural environment.
  • Comfortable working remotely while maintaining strong engagement with the team. Although the position allows for geographical flexibility, occasional travel to Brussels (4 to 6 times per year) will be required to collaborate directly with colleagues.

If you are looking for a role where you can apply your analytical skills, deepen your expertise in underwriting and pricing, and be part of a dynamic team, we encourage you to apply!
