- Coordinate the operational rhythm of the Commercial function, including governance, planning, reporting and leadership activities.
- Provide clear oversight of performance, risks and delivery, enabling informed and timely decision-making.
- Build strong partnerships across Lloyd’s and the wider market to help advance Commercial priorities and outcomes.

You’ll bring a combination of strategic thinking, commercial insight and the ability to influence at the most senior levels.
We’re particularly interested in candidates who can demonstrate:
- Experience within insurance, financial services or another highly regulated environment.
- An understanding of the Lloyd’s market, insurance and reinsurance sector, with the ability to quickly build deep global market knowledge.
- Experience advising a C-suite executive or senior leadership team within a complex organisation.
- A track record of shaping strategy and translating it into delivery.
- Experience leading cross-functional programmes, business transformation or organisational change initiatives.

- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including preparing materials for Executive, Board or equivalent governance audiences.
- Strong judgement, discretion and the ability to navigate ambiguity with confidence.
What sets this role apart
This role offers a rare combination of strategic influence, organisational visibility and direct exposure to Executive leadership.
You’ll work at the centre of decision-making, helping shape priorities that impact the Lloyd’s market globally. You’ll bring people together, solve complex challenges, and ensure ideas become action.
Being inclusive at Lloyd’s is integral to how we work — and how we deliver impact.
