Senior Structurer (Hybrid work model, 80-100%)

Swiss Re
London
Location: London, GB

About The Role

This Senior Structurer position marks a first for our London office and offers a unique opportunity to shape the development of our Alternative Risk Transfer (ART) business in the UK market. You will join a dynamic, cross-border team based in Zurich and Munich, working closely with underwriters and key internal stakeholders to deliver alternative risk transfer solutions that align with our strategic vision and meet regulatory standards. If you are excited by the challenge of building something new and bringing your expertise to a collaborative and forward-thinking environment, we look forward to receiving your application.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Support the ART European Markets & MEA team in originating, structuring, and executing alternative risk transfer solutions tailored to client needs.
  • Actively engage with brokers and clients in collaboration with the sales team to market and position alternative risk transfer and capital management solutions.
  • Generate and cultivate a robust pipeline of transactions that contribute to the profitable growth of the ART portfolio and align with strategic business objectives.
  • Take ownership of deal execution by leading interdisciplinary teams, ensuring effective collaboration across underwriting, legal, finance, and other relevant functions.
  • Enable best-practice underwriting: Work closely with ART underwriters, Market Unit underwriters, and Customer & Distribution Managers to meet plan objectives.
  • Develop and maintain strong professional relationships with internal stakeholders as well as with clients, brokers, risk managers, and captive managers to drive long-term business development.

About the Team

The Global ART team operates through three regional hubs, Americas, Asia & ANZ, and European Markets & MEA, and is closely supported by a dedicated ART Underwriting team. As part of the Corporate Solutions ART team, you will play a key role in the origination, structuring, and execution of innovative, non-standard risk transfer solutions for corporate clients. These solutions span a wide range of alternative products, including structured re/insurance, parametric covers, and other bespoke risk financing strategies. The role reports directly to the Head of Alternative Risk Transfer, European Markets & MEA, and contributes to the delivery of tailored solutions that go beyond the traditional insurance market.

About You

We are looking for a candidate with an entrepreneurial and strategic mindset who has a strong focus on execution and a pronounced bias towards closing deals. The ideal candidate will possess excellent communication, presentation, and facilitation skills, complemented by strong influencing and negotiation abilities that enable them to drive complex solutions over the finishing line. You should be comfortable working in an international environment, managing multiple priorities under tight deadlines with a proactive and solution-oriented mindset. Additionally, we are looking for:

  • More than 5 years of experience working in the European Markets & MEA risk transfer industry and corresponding underwriting functions.
  • Deep knowledge of the UK insurance and corporate risk landscape, including regulatory frameworks, broker networks and competitive dynamics.
  • Solid know-how of traditional and alternative re/insurance products and markets.
  • Practical experience with risk assessment, parametric and index-based solutions and/or ILS markets.
  • Good command of a 2nd European language (preferably French) would be an advantage. #LI-Hybrid

The role will require some travel, not expected to exceed 15%.

We provide feedback to all candidates via email. If you have not heard back from us, please check your spam folder. Our company has a hybrid work model where the expectation is that you will be in the office three days per week.
