Job Description"We're talking the cars that you drive, the food that you eat daily - probably the technology we're all using this very minute," so says the MD of this global broking house's specialist division when describing the accounts handled by this team.
As you would expect from the world's largest insurance broker, it has a vast network of offices across the globe and represents clients based in every conceivable territory. This includes many of the world's biggest, best-known and most complex businesses.
When these blue-chip global businesses are represented by this broker's overseas offices and have a presence in the UK, it is this Division that is responsible for delivering a robust local insurance programme. Given the profile of these accounts, this role is much more involved than many other similar-sounding positions that just deliver basic administration on mandatory UK Liability and Motor lines for overseas clients. Here, you will leverage all this broking behemoth's buying power to ensure that UK cover dovetails the global programme, and that risks are mitigated in line with clients' Head Offices' appetite for risks.
As a result of an impressive growth trajectory, coupled with the promotion of an incumbent member of staff into a 'Head of' style position, this high-performing team is seeking to make several hires. We are keen to hear from candidates seeking a position servicing the needs of longstanding clients, as well as those who would be keen on a more sales-oriented position responsible for maximizing cross and up-selling opportunities with clients who have recently appointed this broker.
Recognizing that very few brokers conduct reverse-flow business in such a detailed fashion, exposure to global risks (UK domiciled or global-inward) is not essential, nor is experience of dealing with corporate risks generating six-figure income. However, you must have a good understanding of some common commercial covers, such as Property, Liability, and Motor. We also welcome applications from candidates from Commercial Underwriting and Claims environments, who are keen to step across.
This role is based in central Milton Keynes within an easy walk of the train station, and with heavily subsidised car parking on site (currently £2.80 per day). The team works on a hybrid basis, with flexibility in working patterns to accommodate commitments such as school runs. You will only be expected to be in the office a couple of days per week.
In return, you will receive a generous basic salary, bonus, and a very impressive flexible-benefits package (including a market-leading pension arrangement) that can be tailored to your personal circumstances. For the ambitious, this broker offers a myriad of opportunities for progression in the short, medium, and longer term, and has been known to create vacancies in this team to suit candidates' specific ambitions.
