Manchester City Centre | Hybrid Working
Up to £65,000 Basic + Uncapped Commission
Six-Figure Earning Potential | Established Referral Network | Growth Opportunity

We are exclusively partnering with a successful independent insurance brokerage as they continue to develop their Group Risk and Employee Benefits offering.

This is a genuinely interesting opportunity for an experienced Group Risk professional who wants more than simply moving from one established consultancy into another.

The business already has a successful insurance operation, an established client and referral network and ambitious plans for growth. They are now looking for an experienced specialist who can help them maximise the opportunity within Group Risk and Employee Benefits.

The Opportunity

You’ll have the chance to become a key specialist within the business, working with SME and corporate clients across:

  • Group Life Assurance
  • Group Income Protection
  • Group Critical Illness
  • Private Medical Insurance
  • Wider Employee Benefits solutions

This is a commercial, client-facing position combining technical Group Risk expertise with relationship development and new business.

Importantly, you won’t simply be joining a large existing Group Risk team and inheriting somebody else’s way of doing things.

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.

You’ll need proven experience within Group Risk and/or Employee Benefits, strong corporate client exposure and the confidence to operate commercially.

A broker or intermediary background would be particularly relevant.

Why Consider It?

For the right person, the attraction is the opportunity to have far more ownership and influence than might be available within a large established Employee Benefits team.

You’ll be joining an ambitious independent business where Group Risk represents a genuine growth opportunity rather than simply becoming another consultant within an existing structure.

The package includes:

  • Basic salary up to £65,000
  • Uncapped commission
  • Six-figure earning potential
  • Hybrid working following probation
  • Manchester city-centre offices
  • Established business and referral relationships
  • Genuine opportunity to influence the development of the proposition
  • Long-term career progression
  • Incentives including European city breaks

Interested?

If you’re already successful within Group Risk or Employee Benefits but would be interested in having a conversation about an opportunity offering greater ownership, commercial upside and the chance to help shape something as it grows, I’d be very happy to speak confidentially.
