Description

Ledgebrook is an InsurTech MGA on a mission to bring Specialty insurance into the modern era. Burdened with legacy technology and processes, the industry has not kept pace with the speed of innovation seen in other sectors. Positioned at the cutting edge of the next generation of InsurTech, Ledgebrook offers the best of both worlds: innovative world-class technology deployed by a leadership team armed with over 100 years of insurance expertise.

Our long-term vision is to become a diversified full stack Specialty re/insurer competing with legacy carriers in product lines & markets across the globe. To get there, Ledgebrook builds its premium base by rolling out a new Specialty product every ~6 months until we prove enough traction to raise a balance sheet, become a full stack carrier and eventually compete in the reinsurance markets. Our initial product is a domestic primary and excess GL E&S policies sourced via wholesale brokers.

At Ledgebrook, everything we do is driven by our culture: Care, Strive, Thrive Together. To succeed in modernizing the industry, we must first succeed in changing the way we do business. Talent density is our north star; fewer, better people working together as one. To that end we’ve replaced all individual incentives with generous equity packages. We play as a team, we win as a team. Everyone benefits handsomely from Ledgebrook’s success. 

Ledgebrook is a fully-remote US based company backed by top venture and family office investors including Brand Foundry, American Family Ventures, Duquesne Family Office, and Stephens Group. We’re a fully remote team prioritizing impact, ownership, and collaboration.

About the Role

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! 

About you

We’re looking for people to join us with:

  • Desire to be part of a forward-thinking finance team embracing AI and automation
  • A passion for delivering world-class customer service to our internal and external customers
  • Intellectual curiosity and a strong desire for innovation, rather than following the status quo
  • A hunger for continuous learning and opportunities to grow 
  • Agile prioritization skills coupled with a keen sense of urgency - we balance getting it right with getting it done right now
  • A strong drive and desire to win together as a high-performing team
  • A moral compass to "do the right thing, period." We have zero tolerance for toxic behaviors
  • An eagerness to actively participate and connect with the whole team, across remote locations
  • An honest, transparent communication style
  • A proactive, solution-oriented mindset. We don’t look for blame, we look for the solution

● Prior general/technical E&S underwriting support experience across various lines of business and coverages. 

● Experience in submission process management, including review for completeness to handle or facilitate account clearance and set-up. 

● Understanding of basic underwriting data analysis to execute submission triage activities, i.e. review submission information in relation to underwriting appetite and guidelines to assist underwriting staff with eligibility determination and prioritization of opportunities. 

● Ability to obtain required information from brokers, organizing/maintaining file documentation and facilitating transactions with other underwriting support resources. 

● Strong organizational skills with the ability to balance multiple tasks/projects to focus on key
