Head of Credit, Surety, Political Risks

The role is to lead the Reinsurance Specialty Lines CSPR underwriting function, comprising a globally distributed team of approximately 17 professionals across North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. The jobholder is responsible for the global CSPR treaty portfolio, its underwriting performance, strategic development and execution of the CSPR business plan.

CSPR is one of the largest and most strategically important Reinsurance Specialty Lines, encompassing Trade Credit, Surety, Structured Credit, Mortgage and Political Risks. The portfolio represents approximately EUR 700 million of premium and is subject to enhanced oversight due to its size, complexity, accumulation profile and sensitivity to macroeconomic and financial market developments.

The role is ideally based in Zurich, currently the home office of three CSPR underwriters, although the Head of Department may be located in another city where SCOR has a significant presence.
