You are familiar with general insurance underwriting and ready to deepen your knowledge across professional indemnity, commercial and domestic property, general liability, directors and officers' liability and general business insurance. You may already hold relevant ANZIIF or RG146 Tier 2 qualifications or be ready to begin your studies.
