Senior Underwriter (Commercial Property)
SGI Canada
In-Scope
Permanent, Full-Time
Location: Winnipeg
Pay Range: $82,886 - $104,610
Close Date: July 8, 2026
Work Location: This role is eligible for hybrid – this means you’ll have the flexibility of working from home and in the office, on a scheduled rotation once training requirements have been met. Until then, the successful incumbent will be expected to work on-site, full-time.
Work should be so much more than just a job you do to earn a paycheque. And at SGI, it is.
We offer the essentials – a competitive salary, great pension, and excellent employer-paid family benefits. But we also provide opportunities. The opportunity to do work that makes a difference in your community. The opportunity to expand your professional skills and grow your career. And the opportunity to come to work every day to a job you’re passionate about and that leaves you feeling happy and fulfilled.
Now that we’ve (hopefully!) sparked your interest, here’s some good news: we’re hiring!
We’re looking for a Senior Underwriter (Commercial Property) to join our Winnipeg team.
We hope you consider applying if you:
- Are highly knowledgeable and experienced in property insurance underwriting.
- Have excellent analytical, decision-making, and communication skills.
- Can work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
- Are skilled in problem solving and solutioning.
- Can adapt and pivot quickly in response to change and are comfortable navigating uncertainty.
- Are a quick learner who embraces new challenges and opportunities.
- Possess strong leadership and coaching skills to support and develop others.
- Want to leverage your leadership skills for good – like actively supporting SGI CANADA’s culture, expanding your own learning and supporting your colleagues as they do the same.
Typically, these skills are gained through a two-year diploma from an accredited post-secondary institution in a relevant field of study such as Business. Candidates should have 5 – 7 years of experience in underwriting, with at least 3 of those in commercial property. We know the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can get in the way, so please don't hesitate to apply. We'd love to hear from you!
