Development Underwriters – UK Wide

Commercial insurance is one of the few areas where good underwriters are genuinely fought over — and right now I'm working with a number of insurers and MGAs looking to add to their regional teams.

The roles:

  • Development Underwriter
  • Trading Underwriter
  • Commercial Underwriter

The locations:

  • London
  • South East
  • South West
  • Midlands
  • North West
  • North East
  • Scotland
  • Wales

Hybrid and home-based options available.

What you'd be doing:

  • Underwriting SME through to mid-market commercial risks
  • Building and trading a broker panel in your patch, face to face and over the phone
  • Making the call on new business and renewals within your authority
  • Growing a profitable book, not just processing referrals

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.
