Head of Landlord Insurance

The Landlord Insurance market is c£1bn GWP, one of the largest in the UK. 

In July 2019 we launched our landlord insurance product offline direct and as part of MultiCover with the ability to sell policies online launching in November 2022.  The active book size currently remains small at just over 16k, however, the growth opportunity is large given the market size.

As such, we have very ambitious plans to grow Landlord and are looking for someone to lead this growth.  Considerations are how the landlord product compliments existing Household products, how growth can be achieved without price comparison distribution and future product enhancements.

For the right candidate, this is a rare and exciting opportunity to take ownership of a product with large potential and to learn and develop new skills.
