- Build strong, long-term relationships through regular contact, review meetings and proactive advice
- Work closely with our broking and handling team to deliver high-quality service and technically sound insurance solutions
- Drive new business, identify opportunities within your network and the local market, follow up on leads and support wider growth initiatives

Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you

- A proactive, commercial mindset, comfortable with new business and growth expectations as part of the role
- Progress towards professional qualifications (e.g. CII) is an advantage, though not essential
What We Offer
- A warm book of clients to inherit, with scope to grow and shape your own portfolio
