Job description

Trainee Commercial Broker / DA Underwriter – Leeds City Centre

Opportunity to join a successful Leeds City Centre based commercial insurance brokerage. This role is slightly different in that you will not only be providing broking support to the Account Executives; you will also be working with numerous schemes with delegated underwriting authority on various lines of business.

There are currently two roles available within this team, which could suit applicants with at least 12 months insurance experience, ideally commercial, although we are happy to receive applications from those with “private client” insurance experience, but looking for an opportunity to move into a commercial insurance role.

Full training will be provided, both technical broking and underwriting training, as well as system training for those who haven’t used Acturis. Although our client works on a part office, part home basis, expect to be in the office more often than not for the first month or so, whilst you complete the training.

As a business, our client is very successful, growing consistently and has a great team environment with a little bit of a social scene for those who wish to join in.

This role comes with a basic salary of up to £29k + a full and comprehensive benefits package. Once up to speed, it is likely that you will be able to work 2 days a week from home if preferred.
