It's not often that an opportunity like this - to secure a trainee position within commercial insurance broking - presents itself. More often than not, insurance employers want previous relevant experience. However, the MD of this highly successful boutique broker recognises (from tried and tested methods), the benefits of training new entrants to the market.Our client is a well-established commercial broking firm that specialises in Trade Credit Insurance - a vital insurance cover that helps businesses protect their balance sheets, and allowing them to continue to trade in the event that their customers go insolvent.

In fact, when it comes to a secure career, this is about as safe as it gets.A major selling point of this opportunity is just how much you are going to learn!

"One minute, we'll be looking at a standard TCI policy, and the next minute we'll be broking Surety Bonds and Political Violence covers."With extensive training, you will help to service the insurance programmes for a wide range of clients spanning many industry sectors. This broker caters for small businesses, right up to large corporate organisations with turnovers in the billions of pounds, and paying over £1m in insurance premiums Working closely with the MD, your varied role will include, but not be limited to, managing credit limit requirements for clients via liaising and negotiating with insurers, and providing clients with support and guidance to ensure they adhere to their policy terms and conditions.
