PstrongDirector — Facultative Construction Reinsurance /strong /ppbr/ppstrongLocation: Europe (flexible) /strong /ppbr/ppstrongSalary: /strong€strong275,000 – /strong€strong350,000 /strong /ppbr/ppThis is not a conventional senior hire. /ppbr/ppA highly respected, independent specialist reinsurance broking business — backed by a well-capitalised international group — is seeking an exceptional Director-level professional to lead its Construction and Engineering facultative practice. /ppbr/ppThe business operates primarily across European markets with global reach, placing complex, large-value risks with carriers across Lloyd's, continental Europe, Singapore, New York, Bermuda and beyond. /ppbr/ppThis appointment sits at the heart of a deliberate and structured succession strategy. The person who takes this role will arrive with a platform, a mandate and the genuine expectation of shaping the strategic and operational direction of the business. /ppbr/ppThis is principal-level responsibility — not a seat at someone else's table. /ppbr/ppstrongThe Role /strong /ppbr/ppYou will take strategic ownership of the Construction and Engineering facultative practice, leading complex risk placement across global markets while driving the commercial and operational direction of the business. Alongside the incumbent leadership, you will execute a structured transition that positions you to assume full principal responsibility in due course. /ppbr/ppDay-to-day this means leading on the placement of large, complex facultative programmes, owning senior client relationships, developing new business across target sectors and geographies, and contributing meaningfully to the strategic direction of a business with ambitious growth plans — particularly across energy transition, renewables and emerging markets backed by group-level opportunity. /ppbr/ppstrongWhat You'll Bring /strong /ppbr/ppExtensive, demonstrable experience in facultative reinsurance broking across the construction and engineering sector is essential. /ppbr/ppYou will have a track record of placing complex, large-value risks independently at senior level, with the carrier relationships, commercial credibility and personal gravitas to lead at board level and represent the business in global markets. /ppbr/ppBeyond the technical, you will be entrepreneurial in mindset — someone who thinks and acts like a principal, not a functionary. You'll be ambitious, collaborative, and genuinely motivated by the opportunity to own and shape a business rather than simply run a desk within one. /ppbr/ppstrongWhy This Role /strong /ppbr/ppThe business has real market standing, and the backing to grow aggressively in the sectors that matter most right now. /ppbr/ppThis is succession, not just employment — and that distinction matters. /ppTo find out more in strict confidence, contact: /ppbr/ppstrongStuart McKenna | Business Director, IDEX Consulting /strong /p
