Job Description:

Providing for loved ones, planning rewarding retirements, saving enough for whatever lies ahead - our policyholders count on us to be there when it matters most. It's a big ask, but it's one that we have the power to deliver when we work together. We collaborate and innovate - pushing one another to transform not just Pacific Life, but the entire industry for the better. Why? Because it's the right thing to do. Pacific Life is more than a job, it's a career with purpose. It's a career where you have the support, balance, and resources to make a positive impact on the future - including your own.

We're actively seeking a talented Multilife and Policy Change Life Underwriter to join our Consumer Markets Division. We are hiring at the Senior Underwriting Consultant level, and this role supports 100% remote work.

As a Senior Underwriting Consultant, you'll play a key role in Pacific Life's growth and long-term success by evaluating insurance applicants; you'll correlate all aspects of risk to determine whether to accept, modify or decline applications. You'll focus on mortality by evaluating risk of death which includes history, degree of medical maintenance, treatment, and flags of potential future risk. Our underwriters are a crucial part to the placement of Life Insurance coverage and can directly impact our position in the marketplace and relationship with distribution partners.

Now is a great time to join our Underwriting team. Our underwriters are empowered to grow their careers through learning and development opportunities. Apply today to join a team that is dedicated to innovation, career development, and the people-first culture of Pacific Life.
