Flood Re is the first of its kind - a joint initiative between the UK Government and Insurers to provide flood cover that is more widely available and affordable. Every insurer that offers home insurance in the UK must pay into the Flood Re Scheme - this Levy raises £135m every year that we use to cover the flood risks in home insurance policies, purchase further reinsurance against catastrophic flooding and to run the Company.

Flood Re will run until 2039 and is tasked with ensuring that the market will then be offering policies with premiums based on actual flood risk. This is a great opportunity to join a respected and highly motivated team.
