Job description
A Platform Worth Joining
One of the UK's most ambitious and well-capitalised broking groups is strengthening its Edinburgh commercial team - and they're looking for an experienced Commercial Insurance Broker who wants more than just a job title change.
This is a business that has grown rapidly, invests seriously in its people, and has the insurer relationships and infrastructure to back it up.
If you're a broker who wants scale without bureaucracy, and autonomy without isolation, this is worth a conversation.
The Business
This is a broking group operating at genuine scale - with the market access, technology, and financial backing to compete at the top end, but a culture that still feels local, collaborative, and people-first.
Key strengths:
1. Deep, long-standing insurer relationships and strong market credibility
2. Consistent organic growth with low attrition and high internal promotion
3. Decentralised model - teams own their clients, their decisions, and their careers
4. A culture that rewards contribution and technical ability, not politics
The Role
As a Commercial Insurance Broker, you'll manage and develop a portfolio of mid-market commercial clients across a broad spread of sectors - technology, construction, renewables, professional services, charities, manufacturing, and food & drink.
Day-to-day, you'll be:
5. Managing renewals, MTAs, and ongoing client servicing to a high standard
6. Working directly with insurers on negotiations, terms, and market presentations
7. Supporting Account Executives on client meetings and new business activity ? Operating within a relationship-driven, quality-focused service model
8. Using Acturis as the core broking platform (familiarity preferred)
This is a proper broking role - varied, technically engaging, and built around long-term client relationships rather than volume targets.
About You
You'll be well placed if you:
9. Have experience in commercial insurance broking - broker background essential
10. Are confident managing clients and insurers directly
11. Have solid technical grounding across commercial lines
12. Thrive in a collaborative team environment while working with genuine autonomy
13. Are based in or within commutable distance of Edinburgh
What's in It for You
14. Salary to £45, depending on experience, plus a strong benefits package
15. Hybrid working - 2 days per week in the Edinburgh office
16. Real investment in your development and a clear path upward - internally
17. Exposure to high-quality, well-structured commercial risks
18. A stable, growing platform where experienced brokers build long-term careers ? The backing of a major group without the layers that slow things down
The Process
Straightforward and fully supported:
19. Confidential conversation with IDEX to walk through the role and business in detail
20. Two focused interviews with the hiring firm
21. Full preparation and guidance from us at every stage - including CV support if needed
