About the role

DentaQuest in the United States seeks a strategic VP of Underwriting to lead underwriting and actuarial activities across Government contracts, shaping pricing, benefits alignment, and financial performance. You will oversee the underwriting team, develop strategy for new and existing business, and collaborate with client engagement and network management to ensure profitable operations and strong policy impact.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
