Syndicate Reporting Manager

Who we are

Apollo, a Skyward Group company, is an innovation-inspired insurance platform operating at Lloyd’s of London, delivering data-driven and creative solutions across a broad range of risks.

Our name reflects our origins. Inspired by one of our founding investors, Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the moon, the business was built with the same pioneering mindset. Alongside Jim Hays, Neil set out to create a different kind of Lloyd’s platform, focused, agile and built around people.

Since launch in 2009, we have grown into a diversified insurance group offering products across Property, Casualty, Marine, Energy and Transportation, Specialty and Reinsurance, alongside Smart Follow and digital and embedded risk programmes. Our experience and unique ecosystem give Platform Partners the best chance of success, from navigating the Lloyd’s new entrant process through to the delivery of their long-term strategy.

With a team of more than 300 professionals, we continue to grow with purpose, combining underwriting excellence, innovation and collaboration to enable a more resilient and sustainable world.

Your Role

This is more than a traditional Syndicate Reporting Manager role. While technical excellence remains at its core, this opportunity has an equally strong focus on developing people, evolving processes and using technology to enhance how regulatory reporting is delivered.

Reporting to the Head of Syndicate Finance, you will lead the delivery of financial and regulatory reporting across Apollo's managed Lloyd's syndicates while playing a pivotal role in developing an established team, strengthening reporting controls and identifying opportunities to further improve efficiency through process enhancement, automation and the continued evolution of Solvency UK reporting.

Working alongside an experienced leadership team, you'll bring a strong coaching and development focus while helping drive the continued evolution of syndicate reporting. You'll work closely with Digital Solutions to reduce manual intervention where appropriate and continue evolving reporting processes through automation and smarter ways of working.

What you will do

Deliver financial and regulatory reporting

• Lead the delivery of quarterly and annual Lloyd's financial and regulatory reporting across Apollo's managed syndicates.
• Oversee the production of Syndicate Reports & Accounts and Solvency UK reporting.
• Ensure reporting is delivered accurately, on time and in accordance with Lloyd's reporting requirements.
• Maintain a robust governance and control environment throughout the reporting cycle.

Lead and develop the team

• Coach, mentor and develop an established team, building capability and creating opportunities for continued professional growth.
• Provide day-to-day leadership, guidance and performance management.
• Foster a collaborative culture where knowledge sharing, accountability and continuous development are encouraged.
• Support the ongoing evolution of the team's capability as reporting requirements continue to develop.

Enhance reporting efficiency and controls

• Review existing reporting processes, identifying opportunities to further enhance efficiency, consistency and governance.
• Partner with Digital Solutions to increase automation and reduce manual intervention across regulatory reporting.
• Improve reporting processes through better use of technology, data and workflow enhancements.
• Strengthen reporting controls, documentation and evidence to support a well-controlled reporting environment.
• Challenge existing ways of working, encouraging continuous improvement while maintaining the high standards already established across the function.

What we are looking for

We're looking for an experienced Syndicate Reporting professional who combines strong technical expertise with proven leadership capability and a genuine passion for developing others.

• A recognised accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA or equivalent).

What you’ll get in return

We offer a competitive and thoughtfully designed reward package that reflects the value of our people. This includes a fair and attractive salary, discretionary bonus, and a comprehensive benefits package - including 31 days’ annual leave, a non-contributory pension and private medical insurance.

Our commitment to inclusion

At Apollo, people are at the heart of everything we do. We are a diverse, growing team of empowered experts who bring collaboration, innovation and data-driven thinking to every relationship and every risk.

We believe diversity and inclusion go far beyond targets. They are essential to understanding the global communities we serve and to making better decisions. That’s why we are committed to developing diverse talent at every level and creating an environment where different perspectives are genuinely valued, supported and celebrated.

We also run a programme of events, training and initiatives designed to recognise both the challenges and opportunities that come with building an inclusive workplace.
