Job description

Introduction

We’re a dynamic underwriting and distribution business backed by the strength of Gallagher and powered by a belief that every challenge has a solution. With entrepreneurial energy, niche expertise, and a bold growth mindset, we’re transforming what it means to be an MGA in today’s insurance landscape.

Whether you’re shaping new products, solving complex problems, or collaborating across teams, your ideas and initiative will help deliver smarter solutions for our clients—and move the industry forward. Here, agility meets stability. Creativity meets execution. And your career meets real opportunity.

At Pen, we champion innovation, value accountability, and thrive on building something better together. If you’re looking to join a team that’s rewriting the future of underwriting, we’d love to hear from you.

Alongside traditional motor claims, you'll also gain exposure to unique environmental and fuel-related claims, offering the chance to develop expertise in an interesting and varied area.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working in a fast paced environment, managing their own workload and building long term customer relationships. We offer comprehensive training, genuine progression opportunities and flexible hybrid working. Working hours are Monday to Friday, 9am - 5pm.
