Account Manager

Salary: £45,000
Location: Chelmsford (Essex) / Hybrid

This role is ideal for someone with a strong background in commercial insurance, particularly across mid-corporate to large risk clients, who is confident in managing client relationships, navigating the market, and delivering a first-class service.

You’ll bring proven expertise in broking, negotiation, and market awareness, alongside a deep understanding of client service excellence and regulatory compliance. You’ll be responsible for ensuring service delivery meets both company standards and FCA requirements, while adding real value to a diverse client portfolio.

The Housing team is a fast-paced, collaborative environment, where knowledge sharing and teamwork are key. If you enjoy building relationships, solving problems, and working in a dynamic setting, we’d love to hear from you.

Responsibilities:

  • As an Account Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in supporting Account Directors and servicing a portfolio of Housing clients, working closely with colleagues across Broking, Claims and Accounts.
  • Managing the end-to-end renewal process, including preparing submissions and gathering accurate risk information
  • Obtaining and negotiating renewal terms, exploring alternative markets, and supporting client presentations
  • Preparing and issuing renewal and mid-term documentation in collaboration with internal teams
  • Producing risk presentations, reviewing quotations, and comparing cover to deliver the best outcomes for clients
  • Ensuring all client data is accurate, compliant and recorded on internal systems
  • Supporting the delivery of PRISM requirements and maintaining clear audit trails
  • Liaising with insurers and internal stakeholders to resolve queries and secure favourable terms
  • Managing policy lifecycle activity – from placement through to documentation and post-placement follow-up
  • Handling client queries efficiently and professionally, always ensuring a high standard of service
  • Supporting credit control and account queries, ensuring timely resolution and escalation where needed

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.
