Job description

Overview

If you're the kind of broker who gets a kick out of solving tough placement challenges - not just pushing paper - this one's for you.

You'll be working with major clients, placing complex commercial risks and negotiating the kind of terms that make both clients and underwriters remember your name.

You'll have the freedom to do what you do best - building relationships, crafting smart solutions, and making sure your clients get the right cover at the right price.

No unnecessary hierarchy. No red tape. Just proper broking, done well, with the backing of a truly independent, employee-owned firm that actually puts its people first.

What you'll be doing:

• Negotiating and placing a broad range of commercial risks.
• Working closely with account executives and underwriters to deliver the best outcomes.
• Developing and maintaining strong market relationships.
• Staying ahead of market trends and using that insight to advise clients.
• Ensuring everything you do is accurate, compliant, and client-focused.

What you'll need:

• Solid commercial broking experience.
• Excellent market relationships and negotiation skills.
• A genuine focus on client service and long-term relationships.
• The ability to work under pressure and still deliver high-quality results.
• Ideally working towards ACII (or already achieved it).

Why join:

You'll be part of a global independent broker that still feels local - owned by the people who work there, not faceless investors. A place where your expertise is valued, your ideas are heard, and your success is shared.

If that sounds like the kind of broking culture you've been looking for, let's talk.
