Job description

A centrally located independent brokerage, regarded as one of Scotland's premier insurance firms, is looking for a Commercial Insurance Broker to join their team in Perth.

If you prefer the culture of an independent broking firm-where employees are put first rather than the bottom line-this could be the perfect home for you.

About the Company

This brokerage has experienced 20% year-on-year growth and boasts one of the lowest attrition rates in the Scottish broking market.

Their success is a testament to their people-first culture, where employees are empowered to pick their own development path, fully supported by a dedicated and forward-thinking leadership team.

With a focus on long-term career growth, they provide tailored mentoring, training, and opportunities to progress into management, executive roles, underwriting, or risk management.

The Role

• Handling a diverse portfolio of mid‑market commercial clients across multiple industries, including charities, financial institutions, technology, renewables, engineering, manufacturing, and food & drink.
• Working within a team of highly skilled professionals, managing insurance programs for SME and mid‑corporate markets.
• Exposure to a variety of commercial insurance lines, ensuring a broad and dynamic workload.
• Supporting executives with new business presentations and projects while managing your own renewals and MTAs.
• Ideally, experience with Acturis would be advantageous.

About You

• Experience in commercial insurance broking, either from a broker or insurer.
• Strong knowledge of commercial insurance classes.
• Ability to work flexibly, spending a couple of days per week in the office.
• Someone who thrives in an independent broking environment, away from the constraints of corporate structures.
• Based in or around the Dundee / Fife or Perth region.

What's in it for You?

• Competitive salary up to £45, plus benefits package.
• A refreshing, independent approach to broking.
• Clear career progression with over half of the workforce promoted in the last three years, with some moving from Handler level to Senior Management in under five years.
• Training and mentoring support, offering routes into management, executive roles, underwriting, or risk management—you can carve your own path here.
• Hybrid working available, along with full support for professional development.

The Recruitment Process

• A simple and streamlined process: an initial informal call with IDEX to hear all about the opportunity, hiring company and remit.
• The interview process involves just two short interviews in their main offices, with IDEX providing full support and guidance on your interview preparation.
• Need help with your CV? No problem. IDEX can assist with refining your application if required.

If you're looking for an opportunity where you'll gain real exposure to diverse clients and insurance lines in a dynamic, independent setting, we'd love to hear from you.
