Job description
A close-knit, specialist insurance team, recently welcomed into a larger broking group, is looking for an experienced Senior Account Handler to join their growing business. Known for their family-like atmosphere, this team places great emphasis on collaboration, team morale, and mutual support. It's not your typical corporate office, the environment is relaxed, personable, and even dog-friendly - with a long-standing team and a leadership group that genuinely cares about its people.
This role offers an exciting opportunity to manage and service a portfolio of high-value farm and estate clients, with premiums typically ranging from £50, to £,. The successful candidate will handle a diverse mix of risks including agriculture, commercial property, management liability, events, and high-net-worth. They will analyse policies to identify opportunities for improved coverage and value, while building and maintaining strong relationships with clients, primarily from the office, with occasional in-person meetings. Collaboration is at the heart of this role, and the Senior Account Handler will work closely with other account handlers, underwriters, and colleagues to deliver an exceptional level of service.
The ideal candidate will have a solid background in commercial insurance, with a strong understanding of agricultural risks and experience managing complex, high-premium accounts.. A Cert CII qualification is preferred, though full financial and training support will be provided for those looking to achieve it. Experience using Acturis would be an advantage. Due to the office's rural location, a full driving licence and access to transport are essential.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-respected, people-first brokerage where you can build lasting relationships, develop your expertise, and enjoy being part of a genuinely supportive team.
