How you will create an impact

As Delegated Underwriting Authority Client Executive, you will support the Delegated Underwriting Authority Lead, Pacific in strengthening the governance, oversight and performance management of delegated underwriting and managing general agency arrangements across Australia and New Zealand.

• Identify and support remediation of governance, control, data quality, reporting, compliance or performance issues relating to DUA and MGA arrangements.
