Gloucester | £40,000 - £60,000 + Car Allowance + Annual Bonus + Hybrid Working
Are you an ambitious Commercial Insurance professional looking to join a growing independent broker where your contribution will genuinely make a difference?
We are currently recruiting on behalf of a highly respected, family-owned Insurance Broker in Gloucester who are continuing an impressive period of growth and are now looking to appoint a Commercial New Business Executive to join their successful Commercial team.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business that combines the professionalism, expertise and market presence of a larger broker with the culture, flexibility and personal approach of an independent firm.
Why Join This Broker?
Over the last few years, the business has enjoyed significant growth through a combination of organic expansion, strategic acquisitions and, most importantly, a reputation for delivering exceptional service to both commercial and personal clients.
Today, they employ more than 25 knowledgeable and friendly insurance professionals and have ambitious plans for continued growth.
Despite their success, they have remained true to the values they were founded upon—putting clients first, investing in their people and building long-term relationships based on trust and expertise.
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.
