Description

An opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and self-motivated Broker to join WTW’s Financial Institutions (FI) team within the Credit Risk Solutions (CRS) global line of business. Based primarily in London, this role will support the placement, marketing, and negotiation of complex credit and political risk transactions across the London insurance markets, while working closely with clients and WTW’s global network.

The Role

As a Broker within the FI team, you will support and execute a broad range of credit and political risk insurance placements for a diverse global client base, including corporates, banks, funds, traders, and export credit agencies. You will collaborate with senior colleagues, underwriters, and network partners to deliver tailored, market-leading solutions across multiple industries and geographies.

Key Responsibilities Include

  • Executing insurance placements from non-binding indications through to binding and confirmation of cover
  • Broking transactions across products including Political Risk, Comprehensive Non-Payment (Credit/Contract Frustration), and Political Risk Programmes
  • Preparing market submissions, analyzing client requirements, and coordinating market feedback
  • Supporting and developing client relationships from initial engagement to first policy placement
  • Structuring solutions for clients operating and investing in both OECD and developing markets
  • Assisting with slips, endorsements, policy processing, monitoring tools, and invoicing workflows
  • Supporting claims processes as required
  • Working collaboratively with internal stakeholders across the Financial & Specialty (FS) platform
  • Operating in accordance with WTW’s Client Excellence Model, compliance framework, and risk management standards

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.
