Job description

Senior Account Handler
Salary: £50,000
Location: Leeds
Type: Full Time, Permanent

We’re working with a fantastic, truly independent insurance brokerage based in Leeds, known for its integrity, professionalism, and refreshing approach to commercial broking.

They're now looking to hire an experienced Senior Account Handler to join their growing team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who’s feeling stuck in their current role and wants to get stuck in somewhere that truly values experience and quality.

Over the last few months, we’ve placed a couple of excellent candidates into the business—and the feedback has been outstanding. Here's what one had to say:

“Two weeks into my role as an Account Executive , and the contrast with my previous experience at a national broker couldn’t be starker.
Here, the atmosphere is calm but purposeful. Clients actually want quality insurance, and I’m trusted to broker in their best interest—not shackled to outdated schemes.
There’s trust, clarity, and actual collaboration. It’s early days, but this already feels like what broking should be.”

If you’re a Senior Account Handler looking for autonomy, respect, and a stable, well-run brokerage, this is the move you’ve been waiting for.

What’s on offer:

• £50k salary

• Independent, well-regarded brokerage (not owned by a consolidator)

• Excellent team culture and support

• Opportunity to make a real difference, not just process paperwork

We’re keen to speak with experienced Senior Account Handlers who are ready to leave behind the politics and pressures of national brokers for something better.
