Manager, Underwriting Administrative Services

Come to work every day to a job you’re passionate about and that leaves you feeling happy and fulfilled.

Of course, we offer the essentials – a competitive salary, great pension, and excellent employer-paid family benefits. But we also provide opportunities. The opportunity to do work that makes a difference in your community. The opportunity to expand your professional skills and grow your career. And the opportunity to guide our company through our ongoing Corporate Transformation journey to become a digital insurer!  

Hopefully we’ve sparked your interest because we’re hiring!  We’re looking for a Manager, Underwriting Administrative Services who has an innate ability to lead their team and inspire others.

The successful candidate will be responsible for managing the underwriting (UW) administrative support to all UW departments in the SGI CANADA division. In this role you will define and monitor productivity standards.  Collaborate with the UW departments to streamline and improve the workflow as well as transition underwriting administrative processes to the area.

We hope you consider applying if you: 

• Have knowledge of insurance laws, regulations, risk assessment, and underwriting principles
• Have a passion for leading, mentoring, and fostering professional growth and development.
• Can adapt quickly to fast-changing work environments.
• Are able to build strong internal and external customer relationships and delivering customer-centric solutions.

• Have the ability to streamline processes and improve overall workflow in alignment with strategic direction and priorities.
• Want to leverage your leadership skills to actively support SGI's culture, expand your learning, and support your colleagues as they do the same. 

Typically, these skills are gained through a four-year degree in a relevant field of study such as Business and eight years’ experience comprised of four years leadership and four years underwriting experience. We know the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can get in the way, so please don't hesitate to apply. We'd love to hear from you!  

What else do we offer? 

Our website gives a run-down of the many perks of working with us, including: 

• Work-life balance: How does an additional three weeks off a year sound?  
• Personal development: We invest in our employees. We provide leadership and employee training and education funding to support your self-improvement goals and keep our teams thriving.  
• A positive, healthy work culture: Work culture can be the reason an employee stays or leaves a job. At SGI, we’ve worked hard to develop a culture we’re proud of. And we continue to invest in our culture to make sure that our actions (and culture) reflect our corporate values: caring, passion, innovation, and integrity.    

We strive to create the kind of work environment where employees want to come to work. We're not just a workplace but a second home, a community of individuals driven by passion and creativity.  At SGI, your voice is heard, your idea is valued, and your contribution is celebrated.
