About QBE
At QBE, we get to the heart of what matters for our customers. And we do it all with a human touch.
We're an international insurer with more than 13,000 people working across 26 countries, which means we're big enough for your ambitions, yet small enough for you to make a real impact. It's an exciting time. We're building momentum towards our vision to become the most consistent and innovative risk partner.
What if you could have a positive impact, at work and in the world? As part of the QBE team, you'll get to spend every day working with people who are passionate, talented and kind.
Having the right to work in the UK is a requirement for this role. QBE may consider sponsorship at its discretion.
The opportunity
We're looking for a Pricing Governance Manager to join our Chief Underwriting Office on a full-time, permanent basis.
This is a newly created role that will play an important part in shaping and embedding pricing governance across QBE European Operations. Working with colleagues from Pricing & Data Science, Underwriting, Risk and Audit, you'll help ensure pricing activities are supported by effective governance, clear reporting and proportionate oversight.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys bringing people together, coordinating activity across multiple teams and helping translate governance requirements into practical business outcomes. Whether your background is pricing, underwriting, governance or risk, you'll have the chance to build relationships across the business and contribute to an area that continues to evolve and grow.
Your new role
Reporting to the Senior Underwriting Standards Manager, you'll support the ongoing development of our pricing governance framework and help ensure governance activity remains aligned with business priorities, internal standards and regulatory requirements.
You'll work with a wide range of stakeholders across the business, coordinating governance activities, supporting committee reporting and helping maintain visibility of key risks, actions and obligations. While you won't be responsible for technical pricing decisions, you'll play a key role in helping teams work together effectively and ensuring governance processes remain transparent, consistent and fit for purpose.
Key responsibilities:
You'll enjoy working with a broad range of stakeholders and be comfortable coordinating competing priorities across different teams. You're naturally organised, curious and collaborative, with the ability to take complex information and communicate it clearly and confidently to different audiences.
You may come from a pricing, underwriting, governance or risk background. Most importantly, you'll understand how effective governance supports informed decision-making and helps businesses operate confidently in a regulated environment.
Skills and experience you'll need:
We offer a range of benefits to help provide holistic support for your work life, whatever your circumstances. As a QBE employee you will have access to and benefit from:
30 days holiday a year with the option to buy up to 2 additional days.
Flexible working -balancing work and life is important so our flexible working opportunities are open to all, this can include part-time, job share and compressed hours.
Pension – you are automatically enrolled into the QBE pension plan, which entitles you to receive employer contributions of 10% of your basic salary.
Private medical insurance – we fund fully comprehensive private medical cover for you and all the family.
Family friendly policies – we offer 26 weeks leave at full pay regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation or how you become a parent.
Short term remote work abroad -you can request up to 20 days per year to work remotely from certain locations abroad.
Sustainable investing - we believe sustainable integration is important for long term financial, environmental, and social outcomes. Our pension strategy supports our net-zero goal to achieve year-on-year reductions in carbon footprint, by investing more in green businesses than the broader market, so your savings are looking after the planet's future, as well as your own.
Cycle-to-Work – benefit from regular exercise whilst making your commute greener and cheaper, select and bike and/or accessories up to the value of £5,000.
