To succeed in this role, you will be a proactive self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, high-performing environment, and you will be expected to generate and deliver against agreed revenue targets. Many of our employees work flexibly in a variety of different ways, including part-time, flexible hours, job share, an element of working from home or compressed hours.

• Design and deliver engaging training and workshops on key road risk topics to support clients' loss prevention and driver safety programmes.
• Deliver professional motor fleet and road risk consultancy services.
• Interpret emerging motor and road safety risks, legislation and industry trends, and translate them into clear guidance for customers.
• Build trusted relationships with clients, brokers and internal teams to embed a positive, sustainable road safety and risk management culture.
• Represent the business at client meetings, industry events and internal forums, sharing technical insights and promoting Zurich's motor risk capabilities.
• Contribute to the development of repeatable motor risk propositions, drawing insight from client assignments, claims themes and fleet risk trends to improve how we scope, deliver and evidence value.

What you will bring

• Proven experience in motor fleet risk management and consultancy, including conducting motor risk assessments and reviewing fleet management systems and processes.
• Strong ability to evaluate motor exposures (driver, vehicle and operational) and provide clear, practical, evidence-based recommendations.
• Experience producing high-quality written reports and delivering management and/or driver training and workshops on a range of road risk topics.
• Commercial awareness, with confidence contributing to well-scoped consultancy opportunities and working to agreed revenue, utilisation or performance targets. Experience of working with police fleets.
• Qualification at master's level in a driving psychology-related field.
• Experience of the National Driver Offender Retraining Scheme (NDORS) and/or other driver diversion schemes.
• Formal qualification in health and safety (e.g. Diploma/NEBOSH General Certificate). Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, able to turn data and observations into practical risk improvement actions.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all organisational levels.
• Confident presenter and facilitator, able to design and deliver engaging training for varied audiences.
• Proactive self-starter who is well-organised, resilient and thrives in a fast-paced, high-performing environment. Everyone's different.
