Commercial Account Handler

Commercial Account Handler – Howden Consumer & Local Commercial

With a no limits approach, we can rise to any challenge. Whatever the question, the concern, or the risk, we can get the right people in a room and find the right answer. Our collective power is also helping us to change the insurance narrative—doing right by our clients while using insurance as a tool to build resilience for individuals, businesses, and communities. From pro bono work, to insuring COVID-19 vaccine development, to de-risking the carbon market, we're using our skills, knowledge, and networks to make a difference and speed positive change in the world around us.

In this role, you will:

  • Build rapport with new and existing clients, ranging from sole traders to MD/CEO of large organisations
  • Work closely with the Branch Manager to achieve team objectives

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.
