Are You Our Next Part-time Liability Underwriter Who Thrives in a Field of  Financial Lines?

We are looking to expand our underwriting team in Finland with a new team member, who will be responsible for growing our Liability insurance portfolio. This position will especially focus on our Directors & Officers, and Financial Institutions insurance product offerings. The position is a part-time permanent role based in our Helsinki office.

Who are we?

The RiskPoint Group is a global Managing General Underwriter (MGU) that offers best-in-class insurance solutions backed by the insurance companies we represent.

We are an agile company with strong cross-border collaboration, leveraging our extensive, international expertise.

Our company structure is flat, and we provide great opportunities for every employee to make a difference, take responsibility, enhance their skill set, and grow.

About the team

Our Finnish office, located in Helsinki, is home to a small but energetic and driven team of underwriters dedicated solely to our liability insurance products.

In total, our company’s Liabilities department comprises 59 experts from six countries, specializing in various fields of liability insurance. The department is organized by product specialties and we regularly hold seminars to share updates, transfer knowledge, and strengthen ourselves as a global team.

You will become part of our growing Financial Lines team, currently consisting of 22 highly skilled and multinational underwriters located in the Nordics, and across Europe.

About the position

As our new part-time Underwriter, your role will primarily be responsible to manage our Financial Institutions portfolio, with a broader focus on underwriting, and business development of our Directors & Officers Liability insurance offering in the SME segment in Finland.

In our small office environment, roles are often interchangeable, allowing you to work across multiple product lines. The flexibility means that depending on your skills, capabilities, and interests, there is potential for your role to adapt and expand in the future.

You will become part of a dynamic and fast-growing business environment and insurance marketplace, engaging daily with colleagues, insurance brokers and insured clients. Collaborating closely with the other members of our Finnish Liabilities department will become a big part of your every day.

This is a perfect position for someone looking for 15-25 hours per week. Potentially ideal for a student in the final stages of their studies. Depending on the development of the business operations, it is possible that this role will be converted to a fulltime position in 2026.

Examples of responsibilities include:

• Interacting with brokers and carriers and negotiating first-class business deals
• Conducting technical, legal and financial risk analysis to provide necessary risk reviews and sophisticated, informed underwriting decisions
• Nurturing and maintaining the existing product portfolios
• Developing new business of Financial Lines products in Finland
• Obtaining insights into financial lines risks in different sized Finnish enterprises, both in Finland and globally

A great match for us

As this is a dynamic role, dealing with a variety of tasks, it is important that you are energetic, ambitious, and have an entrepreneurial spirit.

To be successful in this role, it is important that you are service-minded as well as a team player. Virtual interactions are as much a part of our day-to-day work life as in-person communication is, and we are looking for someone who enjoys building new relationships locally and across borders. Moreover, we expect you to be trustworthy and helpful, take responsibility, and thrive with increasing levels of independence.

What matters most is your attitude and commitment to the role, along with a genuine interest in growing your skills and contributing to the success of our business as part of the team.

We hope you have:

• Suitable educational background ideally, but not restricted to, law, business administration, or economics
