Job description

About Argenta

Argenta Group is headquartered in London and has a presence in Australia, employing over 280 people globally. We are proud of our unique and rich history of trading in the Lloyd’s market, both as a Syndicate and Members’ Agency, and to be part of the Hannover Re Group.

Argenta Private Capital Limited (APCL) is a leading adviser to private and corporate capital at Lloyd’s, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, which advises over 480 clients underwriting £5.1bn of premium. APCL advises High Net Worth (“HNW”) and Ultra HNW individuals together with private offices on how to provide capital that supports underwriting at Lloyd’s and which syndicates to support. This participation allows them to benefit from the dynamic and profitable business of insurance that is an essential part of the world’s economy. The returns from underwriting tend not to be correlated with the returns from other investments making Lloyd’s attractive to those also seeking diversification within their investment portfolio.
