Role Purpose:

To maintain, improve and report ASR's exposure aggregation and accumulation view across specialty portfolios, ensuring that exposure data is accurate, complete, well-controlled and decision-useful.

The role will own key dashboard, data quality, data augmentation, monitoring and reporting activities, while supporting RDS development and event response analysis for the Exposure Management Lead, underwriters, senior management and external stakeholders.

Role Responsibilities:

- Aggregation and accumulation monitoring: monitor exposure concentrations by country, region, peril, line of business, policy, insured, location and other relevant dimensions against agreed appetite and escalation thresholds.
- Dashboard maintenance: maintain and enhance Exposure Management dashboards, ensuring MI is accurate, timely, user-friendly and aligned with reporting requirements.
- Data quality controls: perform regular data quality checks across exposure, policy and location data, including TIV, limits, line size, country coding, geocoding, inception/expiry, policy status,



occupancy and construction fields.
- Data augmentation: support enrichment of exposure datasets through country standardisation, geocoding outputs, administrative region mapping, CRESTA/region allocation, peril flags and other exposure-risk attributes.
- Reporting production: prepare monthly and ad hoc exposure reports, including country aggregations, top exposures, line-of-business views, appetite monitoring, RDS outputs and modelled-loss summaries where relevant.
- RDS controls and reporting: support RDS scenario data capture, exposure roll-ups, control checks, reporting packs and documentation for realistic disaster scenario monitoring.
- Event response: support live and post-event analysis by identifying exposed policies/locations, estimating potential exposure or loss impact, producing event response reports.
- Process improvement: identify opportunities to streamline SQL views, Power BI datasets, Excel controls and recurring reporting processes to improve reliability and reduce manual intervention.
- Stakeholder engagement: work closely with underwriting, pricing, operations, claims, actuarial, finance and IT/data teams to resolve data issues and improve the quality of exposure capture.
- Governance support: maintain evidence of controls, reconciliations, data quality actions, reporting sign-offs and escalation decisions to support internal governance and external reviews.
