“We’re talking the cars that you drive, the food that you eat daily – probably the technology we’re all using this very minute,” so says the MD of this global broking house’s specialist division when describing the accounts handled by this team.

As you would expect from the world’s largest insurance broker, it has a vast network of offices across the globe and represents clients based in every conceivable territory on the planet, including many of the world’s biggest and most complex businesses.

When these blue-chip global businesses are represented by this broker’s overseas offices and have a presence in the UK, it is this Division that is responsible for delivering a robust local insurance programme. This role is much more involved than many similar-sounding positions that just deliver basic administration on mandatory UK Liability and Motor lines for overseas clients. You will leverage the broking behemoth’s buying power to ensure that UK cover dovetails with the global programme, mitigating risks in line with clients’ Head Offices’ appetite for risks.

As a result of impressive growth and the promotion of an incumbent member of staff into a ‘Head of’ style position, this high-performing team is seeking to make several hires. We are keen to hear from candidates servicing longstanding clients, as well as those interested in a more sales-oriented position responsible for maximising cross and up-selling opportunities with clients who have recently appointed this broker or are establishing their first operation in the UK. The second position mentioned is NOT a targeted sales position with punitive KPIs.

Exposure to global risks (UK domiciled or global-inward) is not essential, nor is experience of dealing with corporate risks generating six-figure income. However, you must have a good understanding of common commercial covers, such as Property, Liability, and Motor. We also welcome applications from candidates in Commercial Underwriting and Claims environments who are keen to step across.

This role is based in central Milton Keynes, within an easy walk of the train station, and with heavily subsidised car parking on site (currently £2.80 per day). The team works on a hybrid basis, with flexibility to accommodate commitments such as school runs. You will only be expected to be in the office a couple of days per week, appealing to candidates from across North London, the Northern Home Counties, East Midlands, and surrounding areas.

In return, you will receive a generous basic salary, bonus, and a very impressive flexible-benefits package (including a market-leading pension arrangement) that can be tailored to your personal circumstances. For the ambitious, this broker offers myriad opportunities for progression and has been known to create vacancies in this team to suit candidates’ specific ambitions.
