Founded with a strong entrepreneurial spirit, CK Specialty was built on the foundation of speed, service, and partnership with our retail agents. Traits that remain at the core of everything we do.

Since our inception in 1998, we have grown into a respected name in the Excess & Surplus (E&S) marketplace. We focus on a wide range of commercial and personal lines, offering access to top-rated carriers and niche products that meet the unique needs of today’s insurance buyers.

Why Join CK Specialty?

• Supportive, high-energy team culture

• A voice at the table - your ideas matter here

Whether you’re new to the insurance industry or bringing years of experience, CK Specialty is a place where your contributions can make a real difference. We're proud of our track record, but even more excited about what's ahead.

What You'll be Doing

We are a fast-growing startup in the insurance space, currently experiencing rapid expansion and unprecedented opportunity. While our foundation is strong, we are still in the process of building out the operational structure, systems, and procedures that will sustain long-term success.

We are looking for a highly skilled, hands-on Underwriting Manager to step in and take on a significant portion of these responsibilities, and to focus on strategic growth and high-level initiatives.

This is a newly created role designed for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, is comfortable building processes from the ground up, and can establish best practices where none currently exist. The ideal candidate will combine deep technical underwriting expertise with strong leadership skills, an entrepreneurial mindset, and a relentless drive for excellence. They will be instrumental in creating the operational foundation, mentoring the team, and ensuring that our growth is matched with the highest standards of quality, accuracy, and client experience.
