They invest heavily in the training and development of their team and encourage them to study for the Chartered Institute of Insurance qualifications.

They are looking for an exec with a good couple of years experience looking after commercial risks. You could be the ideal person for them, if you have a potential moveable book, and a bit about you to keep you occupied during your covenant period, however they will also consider those who want to come on board and build a book of business from scratch too. In order to be considered for this role, you will need to have at least 3 years commercial insurance experience in a customer facing sales focused role. Hold the Cert CII or above or at least be willing to study towards your CERT CII. You will also need to be confident in dealing with all major classes of commercial insurance property, business interruption, liabilities, motor, professional indemnity, etc. Experience of using Acturis would also be a bonus! On offer is a basic salary of £40-60k depending on experience and track record, plus car allowance and annual bonus. Office hours are Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5pm. They are happy with hybrid working. Ideally, they like people to be in a minimum of 3 days a week, especially at the start, but can be flexible.
