What makes this sector hard

  • Line-of-business precision

    P&C, life, specialty and reinsurance each need distinct signal. Our rubric captures the lines and products actually handled instead of generic 'insurance experience'.

  • Distribution and channel context

    Direct, broker, MGA and bancassurance change the shape of the role. Channel is captured in intake so shortlists reflect it.

  • Technical and quantitative depth

    Underwriting authority, reserving methods and pricing exposure are captured as structured signals — not searched for in prose.

  • Regulated-environment operations

    Solvency II, IFRS 17, NAIC, FCA — regulatory exposure and reporting cycles are captured as first-class evidence.

The evidence we score against

Every candidate is scored against the role's rubric, and every score points back to a specific line in the CV. For insurance, these are the signals that carry weight:

  • Line-of-business rubric per requisition

Certifications and credentials that matter here

  • ACAS / FCAS
  • FIA / FFA
