About The Position

Ledgebrook is seeking experienced E&S Underwriting Assistant talent to join our growing team, whose mission is to build a profitable book of E&S business across expanding lines of business and coverages. Ledgebrook’s vision is to deliver market-relevant solutions to our key wholesale trading partners in a more frictionless environment that places an emphasis on efficiencies and quality to meet or exceed our broker’s overall needs in a risk-differentiated manner. If you possess an entrepreneurial passion with a proven track history of delivering high-quality underwriting support and seek an opportunity to break out of the traditional insurance company mold, we’re looking for you! As a member of the Ledgebrook Underwriting Support team, you will regularly interact with Ledgebrook’s underwriters and wholesale trading partners over the phone, virtually, or in-person to facilitate various transactions independently or with limited guidance. We are looking for candidates with a strong overall E&S support background across various lines of business, including a curiosity to gain a deeper knowledge of our business. We currently operate in a fully remote work environment, so we’re more focused on your experience and cultural fit than where you physically sit!
