The Opportunity

Are you looking for a caring, collaborative, values-driven workplace with inspiring teammates and leaders? Do you have the ambition and desire to be the best and thrive at the most impactful global insurance provider in the world? Look no further than Zurich Canada.

If you have experience in commercial P&C underwriting and are looking for a new challenge, we would love to hear from you.

Zurich Canada is currently looking for a Senior Underwriter on our Middle Market team to underwrite and grow a portfolio of complex commercial P&C risks while building strong relationships with our brokers and customers. This role is open to candidates based in Calgary, Edmonton or Winnipeg.

Reporting to the Director, Middle Market, Prairies, you will be responsible for developing and underwriting a profitable book of business within your delegated authority, acting as a primary point of contact for brokers, and applying Zurich’s underwriting frameworks to deliver disciplined, market-leading solutions.

This is a unique opportunity to build your knowledge and experience for the future in a supportive environment where your voice matters. This posting is for an existing vacancy.

Zurich Canada uses artificial intelligence–enabled tools to support certain aspects of the recruitment process, including the initial review and screening of applications. Artificial intelligence is not the sole basis for candidate shortlisting or selection. All hiring decisions are reviewed and made by qualified hiring professionals.

Zurich follows a hybrid work model requiring three days per week of in-person presence, which may include time in the office or market-facing engagements.

Please note: As Zurich Canada does not currently have offices in Edmonton or Winnipeg, roles based in these locations will be remote. If offices are established in these cities in the future, the position will transition to a hybrid work model, requiring three days per week of in-person presence, which may include time in the office or market-facing engagements.

What you'll do

Underwrite new and renewal commercial P&C business within your delegated authority, focusing on accounts with higher technical complexity.
Assess and price risks using Zurich’s underwriting tools and methodologies, ensuring alignment with underwriting strategy and risk appetite.
Structure coverage, terms and conditions that meet customer needs while achieving profitable growth and portfolio balance.
Proactively build and manage a qualified pipeline of opportunities 90–120 days before they go to market.
Develop and maintain strong relationships with assigned brokers and key accounts, acting as a trusted advisor and primary contact.
Participate in broker meetings, marketing activities and presentations to promote Zurich’s capabilities and drive new business.
Collaborate closely with internal partners such as claims, risk engineering and other underwriting teams to deliver integrated solutions and cross-sell additional lines of business.
Handle referrals and coordinate on larger or more complex accounts, ensuring consistent application of underwriting standards.
Lead or support short-term projects (typically 3–9 months) aimed at improving underwriting processes, tools or customer experience.
Share technical expertise and provide guidance to less experienced underwriters, contributing to a culture of learning and continuous improvement.

Job Qualifications - What you bring to the table

Required:

High School Diploma or equivalent and 3 or more years of experience in the Underwriting or Market Facing area.

High School Diploma or equivalent and 6 or more years of experience in the Claims or Underwriting Support area.

Zurich Certified Insurance Apprentice including an Associate Degree and 1 or more years of experience in the Underwriting or Market Facing area.

We are committed to continuous improvement and offer access to a comprehensive range of training and development opportunities.
We care about our communities. Our communities are where our customers, people, and shareholders live and work. While we can be proud of the contribution to society Zurich makes through our core business of insurance, we must also give back to our communities through our talent, time and resources.
We have won numerous awards for our workplace culture. We are proud to be one of Greater Toronto’s Top Employers and to have received Insurance Business Canada’s 5-Star Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Award.
