Product · Risk · Underwriting
Product Owner leading a £20m risk platform, now transitioning into insurance underwriting.
5+ years translating complex risk data into actionable decisions. I build compliant, data-driven tools in regulated environments and I'm eager to apply that rigour to underwriting and insurance risk.
About
Why I build the way I build.
I bridge the gap between technical complexity and commercial outcomes. Leading risk systems for a FTSE 100 organisation taught me to evaluate exposure daily, embed compliance checkpoints, and translate data into clear stakeholder recommendations.
Insurance underwriting excites me because it demands the same analytical rigour I've developed, balancing risk appetite against business objectives, navigating regulation, and making sound decisions under uncertainty. I'm eager to apply my experience in risk frameworks, data validation, and process automation to technical underwriting roles.
