We do things a bit differently here

Ando is a multi-lines insurance business and sell our policies through New Zealand’s leading insurance brokers.

At Ando we believe that the fundamental purpose and function of insurance is to help people reduce their losses when bad things happen.  That’s why at Ando we’ve always believed in the importance of treating your insurance as a relationship, not a transaction. And why our purpose is to positively impact the wellbeing of New Zealanders.

The role

Right now, we’re looking for a Schemes Business Development Manager to join our Digital Commercial team and help grow our schemes business through smart solutions and strong relationships.

This is a role that blends relationship building, commercial thinking and underwriting know-how. Day to day, you’ll:

• Build and grow key scheme broker partnerships, driving portfolio growth while delivering a standout customer experience
• Act as the go-to contact for broker partners, supporting them to meet SLAs and compliance requirements
• Identify opportunities to improve how we work, and lead or support projects to make it happen
• Prepare and deliver insightful reporting, using data to guide decision-making
• Underwrite commercial risks and referrals as needed, ensuring quality and timeliness
• Spot new business opportunities, develop solutions, and drive growth across the marketplace

Qualifications and experience

• At least 8 years’ experience in general insurance, with strong underwriting expertise (schemes experience is a big plus)
• A proven track record of developing business and building trusted broker relationships
• A clear understanding of the regulatory and legislative landscape
• Strong commercial instincts, analytical skills, and comfort with data and systems
• A collaborative, proactive mindset and a passion for helping others succeed
• ANZIIF qualifications (Cert/Dip) will be highly regarded, as will your drive to grow and share your knowledge.

Want to surround yourself with great people?

We’re proud that we’re a bit different from regular insurance companies – knowing it’s our people and their relationships who make that difference. We know when to work hard, be focused and smart, but we also never underestimate the importance of the human connections that make us tick and get along together. 

Jump in!

So, when you put a group of people together who all share that thought, you get a truly inclusive, supportive culture and a special group of people.
