Underwriter jobs

Right now there are 130 underwriter openings on our board, and 18 of them arrived in the last seven days. 53 of them are fully remote (remote underwriter jobs). The board refreshes every night, so the count moves with the market.

32 of the 130 openings state a salary. Across those, the middle half of posted pay runs from $75k to $138k a year. We only count postings that state pay, so this is what employers are advertising today, not an estimate. For the fuller picture by seniority and market, see the underwriter salary page.

The three skills underwriter postings name most often are Financial Modeling (78% of postings), Underwriting (72%) and Risk Management (35%). Those percentages are simply how many of the postings we read mention each one, so you can see which are near-universal and which are nice to have. Every skill, defined: the glossary.

Yes, and we can tell you from where. 1 measured routes lead into underwriter work. The closest is from actuary: a typical actuary profile already covers 46% of what underwriter postings ask for, and the route page lists the exact skills that make up the rest.
