Our client, a top personal lines carrier, is seeking a Ocean Marine Underwriting Director to continue scaling its high net worth/ yacht offering within a growing platform. This individual will oversee key MGA and distribution relationships, ensuring strong underwriting performance, disciplined portfolio management, and alignment with broader product strategy, while also driving cross-sell opportunities across high-net-worth lines (home, auto, etc.) to avoid a monoline approach.
The role will be highly market-facing, working closely with retailers and other capacity partners to expand distribution, improve engagement, and reposition the brand within the marine space, including both ocean and inland exposures. This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of a strong yacht portfolio, enhancing underwriting governance, and expanding into new segments such as inland marine and higher-limit risks.
Candidates must have at least 8+ years of experience in ocean marine or high net worth personal lines underwriting, binding authority, or brokerage to be considered. Position can be fully remote with scheduled visits to their offices in Florida as well as to visit with brokers/ attend boat shows several times a year.
