PI Underwriting Assistant

XS Assure (XSA) was launched in 2021 and is a specialist underwriter of financial and professional lines risks in the UK and internationally. XSA's core business has been underwriting UK PI risks.

In the UK, we currently underwrite and/or place business with 5 risk carriers whilst internationally, with 3 risk carriers.

To date, XSA has been very successful in building a sizeable and profitable portfolio due to its wide risk appetite, its ability to underwrite risks based on merit, empowered underwriters and a commitment to fast turnaround time on all quotes to insurance brokers.

Operationally, XSA employs 16 staff who all work from home. Culturally, it's very entrepreneurial and fast-moving with a focus on always building a better, smarter business with little bureaucracy. XSA is looking to bring on additional talent with the same ethos.
