Kickstart Your Career in Taunton – No Experience Needed!

Stuck in retail, hospitality, or sales, and looking for an office-based career with real progression and professional qualifications?

We are a close-knit, high-energy independent insurance brokerage in Taunton looking for ambitious, people-focused individuals to join our team. We don’t expect you to know anything about insurance—we care about your personality, drive, and communication skills, and we’ll teach you the rest.

What’s in It for You?

• Earn While You Learn: A competitive starting salary of £27,000 – £33,000, with clear milestones for pay increases.
• Fully Funded Professional Qualifications: We pay for you to gain your Cert CII (Chartered Insurance Institute) professional credentials, boosting your market value.
• Real Career Progression: This isn't just a phone job. You’ll get a 360-degree understanding of personal lines, commercial insurance, and client management.
• Solid Work-Life Balance: Standard Monday to Friday hours (with just one Saturday shift a month) so you still have your weekends.
• Great Team Culture: Work in a supportive, friendly environment where your wins are actually celebrated (no corporate micromanagement here).

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Talking to clients every day, building genuine rapport, and finding the right insurance policies to protect what matters to them.
• Guiding customers through quotes, renewals, and policy updates over the phone and via email.
• Keeping accurate digital records and managing client portfolios with attention to detail.
• Collaborating with the team to hit collective milestones and earn bonus/incentive rewards.

About You:

• People Person: You’re confident, chatty, and naturally good at building trust with anyone.
• Ambitious & Driven: You want a long-term professional career path, not just a stepping-stone job.
• Organised & Tech-Savvy: Comfortable navigating computer systems and keeping track of details.
• Ready to Learn: Willing to study for professional qualifications (good GCSEs, including Maths, are helpful here!).

Only candidates with the Right to Work (RTW) in the UK can be considered.
