About the Role

Ansvar Australia, proudly part of the Benefact Group, is looking for multiple Corporate Account Directors to join its Melbourne, Sydney, or Brisbane offices.

As a Corporate Account Director, you'll play a key role in delivering Ansvar’s Corporate Plan through the profitable growth and management of the Corporate Client portfolio. The role combines high-level technical underwriting capability with strategic account management, broker and customer engagement, and the development of tailored solutions for large and complex corporate risks.

Why Join Us?

We are embracing significant organisational change and need innovative thinkers and change makers who want to shape the future, not just be part of it.

Your Voice Matters: Work directly with decision-makers who champion fresh ideas and where you can make a genuine impact.

Diverse Opportunities: As a nimble, dynamic organisation, you’ll gain exposure to challenging projects and cross-functional skills.

Meaningful Work: From our Community Education Programme to protecting heritage buildings and partnering with faith-based and community organisations, your work will make a tangible difference.

Be part of a collaborative, inclusive, ambitious culture committed to making a difference and working towards a more sustainable future. Ranked amongst Australia's Top 40 Best Workplaces to Give Back in 2025, we offer fantastic career and development opportunities, with all of our profits going to charity and good causes.

What You'll Be Doing

• Underwrite and manage a portfolio of complex Corporate Client accounts, delivering profitable growth and sound risk outcomes.

• Develop and implement new business and renewal strategies to achieve portfolio performance, retention, and growth targets.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with brokers, customers, and internal stakeholders to enhance service delivery and business development opportunities.

• Provide expert underwriting guidance and support for complex referrals, ensuring decisions align with underwriting frameworks, risk appetite, and governance requirements.

• Partner with Product and Underwriting leadership to facilitate the timely and effective assessment of Group underwriting referrals and contribute to underwriting strategy and product development initiatives.

What You'll Need to Have

• Extensive experience in a technical underwriting or senior corporate broking role.

• High-level underwriting capability, ideally across Property and Casualty, or deep expertise in one of these areas.

• Strong account management experience, with demonstrated success managing complex corporate accounts across the full lifecycle, from opportunity assessment and underwriting through to renewal and ongoing servicing.

• Proven track record in delivering profitable growth in short-tail and long-tail lines of business.

• Experience in effective stakeholder management within a commercial environment, including both internal and external stakeholders.

What Makes You Stand Out

• Relevant sector experience, such as Care, Community, Education, and Faith.

• Undergraduate degree in Insurance, Business, Commerce, Finance, Mathematics, or a related discipline.

• ANZIIF qualification at Senior Associate level or above.

What We Offer

• A competitive salary; details to be discussed.

• Flexible, hybrid working in modern central business district offices.

• Generous industry performance bonuses.

• Generous annual leave, plus birthday leave, well-being leave, paid parental leave, volunteering leave, and more.

• Tailored professional development programs.

• Recognition as the Best Australian Workplace for Fathers in 2024.

• Good Company Award winner in 2025.
