    SHARE your talent

    SHARE your talent

    We're looking for someone who has these abilities and skills:

    Experience: Substantial experience focusing on portfolio underwriting management and operations. You will also have experience building relationships with all brokers, and other 3 rd party providers. You will also be expected to have a successful track record of driving profitable growth and building new capabilities within a company.


    • Inspired Leadership : AXA XL requires a self-starter who will thrive in a team-oriented environment. You will be a non-political player who can, by virtue of your background and experiences, be immediately credible with both internal and external constituents who include brokers and customers. You will be naturally collaborative, and your words, tone and actions will set the bar for others to follow. You will have the ability to influence without authority, motivate others and be highly participative. You will have the reputation for engaging through listening and then driving for efficiency of decision making versus creating bureaucracy.
    Business Building: You must have a good balance of both strategic and operating skills. You will have a track record of executing to plan and working to achieve objectives. Highly attentive to operational and financial details, you will be well organized, a disciplined planner with solid communication skills. You will be financially astute and sophisticated in identifying key financial trends and reworking metrics to get to answers that at first were not obvious.

    Technical Acumen: Sharp rigorous thinker who creates a logical connection for others between the dynamics of market realities, AXA XL's mission, vision and strategy. You will be a student of the insurance industry and know how the business makes money. You will be market savvy and know what the competition is doing from a product and pricing perspective and quickly grasp challenges and opportunities. Finally, you will have the proven ability to easily articulate the technical and complicated in a manner others readily understand.

    Sustainability

    At AXA XL, Sustainability is integral to our business strategy. In an ever-changing world, AXA XL protects what matters most for our clients and communities. We know that sustainability is at the root of a more resilient future.

    Our Sustainability strategy, called "Roots of resilience", focuses on protecting natural ecosystems, addressing climate change, and embedding sustainable practices across our operations.


    Our Pillars:
    Valuing nature: How we impact nature affects how nature impacts us. Resilient ecosystems - the foundation of a sustainable planet and society - are essential to our future. We're committed to protecting and restoring nature - from mangrove forests to the bees in our backyard - by increasing biodiversity awareness and inspiring clients and colleagues to put nature at the heart of their plans.

    Addressing climate change: The effects of a changing climate are far reaching and significant. Unpredictable weather, increasing temperatures, and rising sea levels cause both social inequalities and environmental disruption. We're building a net zero strategy, developing insurance products and services, and mobilizing to advance thought leadership and investment in societal-led solutions.


    • Integrating

    ESG:
    All companies have a role to play in building a more resilient future. Incorporating ESG considerations into our internal processes and practices builds resilience from the roots of our business. We're training our colleagues, engaging our external partners, and evolving our sustainability governance and reporting.


    • AXA Hearts in Action : We have established volunteering and charitable giving programs to help colleagues support causes that matter most to them, known as AXA XL's "Hearts in Action" programs. These include our Matching Gifts program, Volunteering Leave, and our annual volunteering day - the Global Day of Giving.
