Claims Manager (Specialty Lines)

Ref: 44713

Are you a specialist Claims leader with a passion for complex, global Specialty risks?

We’re working with a high-growth, internationally focused MGA & Syndicate to appoint a Claims Manager – Specialty Lines, a pivotal hire within a lean, high-performing team.

This is not a traditional claims role. It’s an opportunity to take real ownership across a diverse and technically challenging portfolio spanning PV&T, Energy and Marine, with scope to expand into adjacent Specialty classes as the platform continues to evolve.

You’ll be operating at the sharp end of the business – handling complex, high-value claims across multiple jurisdictions, working closely with Underwriting, and playing a key role in shaping how claims contributes commercially and strategically to the wider organisation.

What you’ll be doing:

• Leading the investigation, evaluation and resolution of complex PV&T, Energy & Marine claims
• Acting as a key partner to Underwriters on large losses, coverage considerations and portfolio insights
• Driving a proactive, solution-led claims approach across international markets
• Contributing to claims strategy, process improvement and operational build-out
• Supporting and mentoring junior team members as the function grows
• Maintaining strong relationships with brokers, clients and external service providers

We’re looking for someone who:

? Has strong experience across Energy and/or Marine claims within the London Market or international platforms

? Is comfortable handling complex, multi-jurisdictional losses with significant exposure

? Brings a commercial mindset – able to balance technical claims expertise with business impact

? Has the confidence to operate in a lean environment with real ownership and visibility

? Communicates effectively with senior stakeholders, both internally and externally

? Understands the regulatory and legal landscape across global Specialty lines

This is a genuine opportunity to step into a role where you’re not just managing claims – you’re helping shape how the function operates within a growing, ambitious business.

If you’re looking for something with more autonomy, more visibility, and a closer link to underwriting strategy, this could be worth a conversation.
