Are you looking for an exciting opportunity to apply your analytical and communication skills? The Travelers Business Insurance Underwriting Professional Development Program (UPDP) is a highly structured training program that provides you with the foundation for a strong underwriting future.

Disciplined underwriting is the foundation of our business strategy and one of the keys to our success. Underwriters are the heart of the insurance process, gathering and researching pertinent information and then using their analytical skills to evaluate the acceptability of business and institutional risk. However, underwriters are more than just analysts - they utilize strong interpersonal skills to build solid relationships with our agents and clients. They are responsible for managing a profitable portfolio of business and building strategic partnerships with our agents and brokers. An underwriting career includes a dynamic blend of analytical and selling/marketing skills - it-s challenging, stimulating and a great career choice
