• Represent the business at industry events, networking opportunities and broker meetings.
• Provide regular market feedback and competitor insights to support business growth and product development.
• Ensure all activity is conducted in line with regulatory requirements and Consumer Duty principles.

• 30 days' annual leave plus bank holidays.
