  • Whether you want to move into more senior handling, client management, or team leadership down the line, your path will be shaped around your goals.

About the Account Handler Role

  • You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of commercial clients and those in various specialist sectors and professions - supporting them with renewals, MTA’s, day-to-day servicing, queries and cover reviews.

  • You’ll work on new business enquiries either independently or alongside the Account Executive team.
  • This is a broad, varied role with lots to get involved in.

  • Flexible working, with time spent in the office to build co-operation and collaboration.
  • Company pension scheme.
  • Ongoing training, development, and support.
  • Career progression built into your role from the start.
