About the Company:

A growing commercial insurance broker with a strong presence in the Leeds market, this business has expanded significantly over the years and continues to scale organically.

With a larger office space and continued investment in infrastructure, they offer a supportive, entrepreneurial environment where individuals can shape their own success.

Role Summary:

This is a New Business Account Executive role, ideal for individuals who want the autonomy to build, retain, and grow a book of business. The business is open-minded on profile, whether you’re an established Executive with an existing portfolio or a Broker ready to step up.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
