About MNK International

Risk Redefined

MNK International delivers sophisticated insurance and reinsurance solutions through the Lloyd's of London and international markets. As a truly independent specialist broker, we combine technical expertise, market access, and innovative thinking to navigate even the most complex risks.

Operating from our London headquarters and strategic global offices, we serve clients across more than 120 countries, providing tailored coverage that addresses both traditional and emerging risks in today's evolving business environment.

Our success is built on expertise, integrity, and a commitment to delivering exceptional client outcomes. We are passionate about attracting talented individuals who share our entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to excellence.

About the Role

We are seeking an experienced and highly organised Account Handler to join our specialist Bloodstock & Livestock Insurance team. This is an excellent opportunity for an insurance professional with strong technical expertise and a genuine interest in the equine, bloodstock, livestock, and agricultural sectors.

The successful candidate will be responsible for managing a portfolio of clients, supporting new business and renewal activities, and providing exceptional service throughout the policy lifecycle. In addition, the role includes providing strategic administrative support to the Managing Director, requiring exceptional organisational, prioritisation, and communication skills.

Key Responsibilities

  • Prepare accurate quotations in line with insurer appetite and market terms.
  • Liaise with insurers and MGAs to secure competitive and appropriate coverage solutions.
  • Present terms, conditions, exclusions, and cover options clearly to clients and brokers.
  • Ensure all new business data, valuations, and supporting documentation are accurately recorded.

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.
