This no limits approach means that we can rise to any challenge. Whatever the question, the concern, or the risk, we can get the right people in a room and find the right answer. Our collective power is also helping us to change the insurance narrative - doing right by our clients while using insurance as a tool to build resilience for individuals, businesses and communities. From pro bono work to insuring COVID-19 vaccine development to de-risking the carbon market, we're using our skills, knowledge, and networks to make a difference and speed positive change in the world around us.
With this in mind we are actively looking to hire entrepreneurial leaders who are equally ambitious. As a Branch Manager you will be responsible for your own profit & loss, with the freedom to seek out new business opportunities and the support to grow your branch. But it isn't all just bringing in and retaining business, you will also be accountable for the first-rate service that we deliver to our existing clients, through coaching and developing a team, aiming to retain policies and drive loyalty. As such you will have excellent experience and understanding of Personal Lines and/or Commercial Lines insurance products and services.

- You will be a great communicator who will share knowledge, experience and best practices and be expert in engaging and developing a team of people.
- You understand the importance of working collaboratively to deliver results.
- You will lead with a people first mindset - our culture is important to us, and we believe in supporting and empowering our teams to deliver a world class service; to always exceed our client expectations.
- You will be commercially minded, with the ability to analyse data and make evidence-based decisions whilst maintaining attention to detail.
- Enthusiasm and resilience will be needed to care for our existing client base as well as finding new business opportunities. With the support of the wider business, you will be accountable for the decision making in your branch, acting quickly, making decisions based on what is right for our clients, teams, and the business.
- You will have the ambition to go beyond expectations for your branch, teams, and our clients.
- You will always exhibit the right behaviours whether everything is going well, or there are challenges.
