Employee Benefits Consultant (Group Risk & PMI)
Location: Manchester City Centre | Hybrid Working Available (Post-Probation)
Salary: Competitive Basic Salary + Uncapped Commission + Benefits
OTE: Six-Figure Earnings Achievable
Job Type: Permanent
Become the Employee Benefits Specialist in a Growing Brokerage. Are you an experienced Employee Benefits Consultant or Group Risk professional looking for more than just another sales role?
We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established and ambitious insurance brokerage that is investing in the continued growth of its Employee Benefits division. This is a rare opportunity to become the business's dedicated Group Risk specialist, working with an existing network of commercial clients, brokers, and introducers to deliver expert advice across a range of employee protection solutions.
Unlike many opportunities in the market, this isn't about inheriting a struggling portfolio or stepping into management. Instead, you'll play a key role in shaping and developing a growing proposition, supported by an established business with an excellent reputation and a steady flow of opportunities.
If you're looking for greater autonomy, genuine earning potential and the opportunity to become a recognised specialist within a successful brokerage, we'd love to hear from you.
The Role
You'll work with SME and corporate clients, providing tailored advice on employee protection and healthcare solutions that support both businesses and their employees. Your product portfolio will include:
- Group Life Assurance
- Group Income Protection
- Group Critical Illness
- Private Medical Insurance (PMI)
Working with a panel of leading insurers, you'll conduct detailed fact-finds, recommend suitable products, and build long-term client relationships that generate repeat business and referrals.

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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and manage relationships with SME and corporate clients.
- Conduct client consultations and needs analysis.
- Advise on Group Risk and Private Medical Insurance solutions.
- Source and compare products from a panel of leading insurers.
- Convert warm referrals and self-generated opportunities into new business.
- Deliver compliant, tailored recommendations.
- Build and maintain a healthy pipeline of opportunities.
- Engage confidently with HR Directors, Finance Directors, business owners, and senior decision-makers.
- Liaise with insurers and internal teams to ensure a seamless client experience.
- Provide technical expertise to support the continued growth of the Employee Benefits proposition.
About You
To be successful in this role, you'll have experience advising businesses on Group Risk products within an insurance broker or intermediary environment.
You'll ideally have:
- Proven experience advising on Group Life, Group Income Protection, and Group Critical Illness.
- Experience working within an insurance broker or intermediary.
- A strong track record of generating and converting new business.
- Excellent consultative sales and relationship-building skills.
- Confidence engaging with senior stakeholders and decision-makers.
- A client-focused approach with excellent communication skills.
While experience advising on Private Medical Insurance (PMI) would be advantageous, we're equally keen to hear from experienced Group Risk Consultants looking to expand their expertise into PMI.
What's On Offer
- Competitive basic salary.
- Uncapped commission with genuine six-figure earning potential.
- Hybrid working following probation.
- Warm opportunities generated through an established broker and referral network.
- Structured onboarding and ongoing professional development.
- Clear long-term career progression.
- Monthly and quarterly incentives.
- European city break rewards.
- Regular team social events.
- Modern Manchester City Centre offices.
- Comprehensive benefits package.
