Job description

Overview

Some brokers are just another number in a big corporate spreadsheet. Not here. This is a local, independent broking house where you're a key part of the team. The leaders are hands‑on. They know the clients, the market, and your name. And they've got a clear succession plan that could take you into an Executive role - not in theory, but for real.

Why This Is Different

• Independent. Well-respected. Proper local reputation.
• Leadership who still pick up the phone and get involved in deals.
• A mix of SME and chunky mid-market clients that keeps the work varied and interesting.
• Career paths that actually happen - over half the team's been promoted in the last three years.

What You'll Do

• Manage a portfolio of SME and mid‑market commercial clients across sectors like tech, renewables, engineering, manufacturing, financial services, and charities.
• Handle renewals, MTAs, and placements (Acturis experience handy but not essential).
• Support Execs on new business pitches and projects.
• Work across all the main commercial lines - no pigeonholes.

Progression That's Real

This is part of a clear succession plan. You'll get the mentoring, technical support, and freedom to grow into an Exec or Manager role. Some people here have gone from Broker to Senior Manager in under five years.

What You'll Need

• Commercial insurance broking experience
• Confidence managing client relationships and key covers
• Someone who thrives in a supportive, independent environment without layers of red tape
• Based in Lanarkshire or nearby

What's On Offer

• Up to £44,000k base salary
• Private medical insurance
• Enhanced pension
• Flexible, friendly culture that backs you to grow
• Real long-term career development - no empty promises
