Jonathan Beer, Underwriter – specialty reinsurance, Amtrust At Lloyd’s

Age: 26

Beginning his career after studying economics and finance at Loughborough University, Jonathan Beer’s first insurance role was at ANV (later acquired by AmTrust) in November 2012 as an underwriting assistant for the specialty reinsurance team. He found the analytical and numerical aspects of insurance well suited to his skill set, while the face-to-face and relationship-driven aspects of underwriting made the industry a more attractive option than other financial services.

Since Beer joined the specialty reinsurance unit, the team’s book has grown considerably, from being a predominantly marine and energy reinsurance business to covering terror, composite, space and engineering (run-off) businesses. It has also more than doubled in size since 2012 in terms of premium income. As a result of his contribution to the team’s success, Beer has been promoted twice, becoming assistant underwriter in October 2014 and underwriter in April 2017.

Beer completed his ACII in May 2015 and is a graduate of the LMA Academy. He is an active sportsman and is currently waiting for confirmation of his place in the 2018 London Marathon, during which he will be running for the National Autism Association.
