Conduct Risk Manager

London, UK

The mission of the Delegated Authority Service Centre (DASC) is to support the AXA XL UK & Lloyd's ambition to be the preferred insurer for Delegated Authority business in the London Market by providing top-tier service internally and externally throughout the delegated authority process.

The DASC management team, led by the DASC Director, will consist of an Onboarding and Due Diligence Manager, Operations and Data Reporting and Analytics Manager, Oversight Manager, and a Services and Delivery Manager.

Reporting to the DA Oversight Manager, you will lead the Conduct Risk Team for the UK & Lloyd's business unit in London. Your primary responsibility is to drive compliance with the delegated authority framework, ensuring adherence to regulatory requirements, maintaining high standards for coverholder onboarding, and ongoing oversight and product governance.

Collaboration across the delegated service centre with relevant experts is essential to create a unified approach and improve regulatory relations. Your efforts will safeguard the company's interests and streamline delegated authority activities, making it easier for clients, coverholders, brokers, and internal clients to conduct business with AXA XL.

Delegated Authority is a material element of the UK & Lloyd's BU business, representing circa $1bn GWP with over 250 Coverholders across multiple global territories. The role requires overseeing coverholder onboarding, annual binder renewals, Lloyd's & FCA compliance, product oversight, complaints management, audit management, and remediation and exit strategies.

The Conduct Risk Team is a small team of 4 all based in London with a high volume of BAU, so you will be required to have experience in managing a team in a high-pressured environment. In addition, there are 4 members of the team based in India with a local manager and you will also be the main driving force in ensuring the two teams work together to achieve AXA XL's compliance to conduct regulations and goals.

Negotiating Your Data Science Job Offer: Equity, Bonuses & Perks Explained

Data science has rapidly evolved from a niche specialty to a cornerstone of strategic decision-making in virtually every industry—from finance and healthcare to retail, entertainment, and AI research. As a mid‑senior data scientist, you’re not just running predictive models or generating dashboards; you’re shaping business strategy, product innovation, and customer experiences. This level of influence is why employers are increasingly offering compensation packages that go beyond a baseline salary.

Companies vying for data science talent—especially in the UK, where demand often outstrips supply—routinely offer equity, bonuses, flexible work options, and professional development funds in addition to salary. Recognising these opportunities and effectively negotiating them can have a substantial impact on your total earnings and long-term career satisfaction.
