Closes: November 17, 2024
Work should be so much more than just a job you do to earn a paycheque. And at SGI Canada, 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 an Underwriter (Commercial Property) with directly related experience.
We hope you consider applying if you:
- Have strong communication skills.
- Are a team player with strong attention to detail.
- Have a passion for underwriting.
- Have your Chartered Insurance Professional (CIP) designation or are interested in pursuing it.
- 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 in a relevant field of study such as Business and specializing in Insurance & Risk Management, and 1 – 3 years of experience in Underwriting. Chartered Insurance Professional (CIP) designation or courses would be considered an asset but are not required. But we don’t want you to worry about checking every box! Leave the screening to us. If you’re a quick learner and a team player, we'd love to hear from you!

Work culture can be the reason an employee stays or leaves a job. At SGI, we’ve worked hard to develop a culture we’re proud of. And we continue to invest in our culture through training to make sure that our actions (and culture) reflect our corporate values: caring, passion, innovation, and integrity. - Awesome people
We hire the best people, and you get to work with them. At SGI, you’ll find the work family you didn’t know you needed.
We strive to be the kind of employer that employees recommend to a friend. We want our employees to want to come to work, and we look forward to your application!
