When money is invested in networking, hospitality or industry events, you should be able to demonstrate how that activity translates into opportunities, pipeline and GWP. Where the return is not there, you will recommend a smarter approach. You will also have input into underwriting decisions, helping ensure the distribution strategy remains aligned with appetite, capacity and profitability. As part of the senior leadership team, you may attend occasional capacity meetings, giving you a broader understanding of how the MGA is built, funded and scaled.

You may currently work within an MGA, underwriting agency, insurer or specialist broking environment, but you must understand how to build successful and profitable broker relationships. You should also bring: A strong network across the UK commercial broking market Experience developing profitable broker partnerships A strategic rather than purely transactional approach The ability to translate activity into pipeline, revenue and GWP A good understanding of underwriting appetite and portfolio quality Confidence influencing and challenging senior stakeholders Excellent presentation and communication skills A bright, outgoing and commercially driven personality The ability to create structure from a blank page A willingness to travel regularly throughout the UK Your location is less important than your ability to remain visible in the market. You will spend significant time meeting brokers around the country, although you must also be able to attend periodic meetings in South Woodford or Central London. Salary and future reward The initial salary is up to £85,000 . Bonus and equity will be introduced once the business reaches profitability, anticipated at approximately £3.5 million GWP . At that stage, the leadership team intends to review and renegotiate the overall reward packages. This gives you the opportunity to help build the value of the business and participate in the future success you have helped create. About the company You will be joining a well-backed Property MGA with ambitious plans to establish a significant presence in the market. The business is being built by experienced insurance leaders who want to create a commercially disciplined, relationship-led and profitable MGA. The focus is not growth at any cost. It is about building strong broker partnerships, attracting profitable portfolios and creating a business with genuine long-term value.
