This broker’s Newcastle office is its highest grossing in the country after its City of London operation, and controls some of the largest and most complex insurance programmes held in the North, including well-known FTSE100 constituents and international PLCs.

Furthermore, as one may expect from a firm that has won the prestigious 'World’s Most Ethical Insurance Business" award for 10 consecutive years, it has a fine reputation for taking the progression and professional development of its staff very seriously indeed!

Here, you will play a key part in the day-to-day management of a portfolio of corporate clients generating £250-300K.

To aid you in this, and to ensure a superb rapport with your clients, you will get the opportunity to accompany Account Executives and Directors on quarterly reviews etc. You will scrutinise clients’ insurance programmes, and where gaps in cover exist, suggest innovative and cost-effective ways to mitigate these. You will also be responsible for mid-term amendments, preparing renewals, and answering any day to day queries that may arise. You shall also be tasked with writing a variety of reports and associated documentation to support suggestions made and work undertaken.

This forward-thinking broker can accommodate flexible-working for candidates once they are up to speed on systems and processes. For days when you are at your desk, you will be based in start of the art offices at the Quayside, close to all the bus routes, parking, local bars, shops and amenities.
