About the role

Core Specialty seeks an Assistant Vice President (AVP) for Commercial Surety to lead a high-performing underwriter team across the U.S. You will drive profitability through strategic agency relationships, risk assessment, and market development. Travel up to 40% and direct coaching will be key. The role requires 10+ years in underwriting with strong leadership, and a solid track record managing complex commercial surety accounts within guidelines and regulatory requirements.

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.
