We're determined to make a difference and are proud to be an insurance company that goes well beyond coverages and policies. Working here means having every opportunity to achieve your goals - and to help others accomplish theirs, too. Join our team as we help shape the future.

At The Hartford, we help people achieve amazing things by protecting what matters most. As a Construction Underwriter, you'll be at the heart of that mission-joining a team known across the industry for delivering tailored solutions for complex construction risks, including programs with loss sensitive and alternative risk financing structures.

As a Middle & Large Business Construction Underwriter, you'll lead the sales and underwriting process for complex construction accounts, including those with loss sensitive features such as large deductibles, self-insured retentions, and other alternative program structures. You'll partner closely with agents, brokers, and internal stakeholders to deliver sustainable, profitable solutions.

Your role will include:

Leading underwriting and pricing strategy for complex construction risks, including loss-sensitive and structured programs

Managing account stewardship, renewal planning, and retention strategies

Evaluating loss experience, risk controls, and insured financials to support loss-sensitive decision-making

Driving strategic planning and operational excellence across your portfolio

Identifying cross-sell and up-sell opportunities across casualty and related lines

Collaborating with a high-performing, results-oriented team in a shared-success culture

What Sets This Role Apart

Exposure to loss-sensitive construction programs and complex risk structures

A seat at the table with underwriting, product, actuarial, and sales leadership

A culture that values innovation over tradition

Career growth aligned to your goals-technical leadership or people leadership

A collaborative, inclusive environment where your expertise and perspective matter

We'll Be a Good Match If You Have:

Experience underwriting complex construction casualty risks, including or adjacent to loss-sensitive programs

Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills, particularly when evaluating loss history and risk characteristics

Financial acumen and sound underwriting judgment

A customer-first mindset with a collaborative, relationship-driven approach

Ownership mentality with consistent follow-through

Adaptability in a dynamic, evolving marketplace

A desire to learn and grow within Middle & Large Business underwriting

Qualifications

3+ years of construction casualty underwriting experience preferred

Prior commercial construction carrier underwriting experience required

Proven success building internal and external partnerships

Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills

Strong organizational, analytical, and decision-making abilities

High-energy, entrepreneurial mindset with resilience
