Are you a talented insurance broker or account handler who loves finding solutions, securing deals, and delivering outstanding service?
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing and highly respected insurance network in a pivotal Placement Broker role, supporting a nationwide panel of brokers with both Commercial and Personal Lines placements.
If you're someone who enjoys building relationships, negotiating with insurers, solving complex placement challenges, and helping brokers win business, this could be the perfect next step in your career.
The Opportunity
As a Placement Broker, you'll act as the first point of contact for network brokers seeking support with risk placements. You'll work closely with brokers and insurers alike, helping secure the best possible outcomes while providing technical guidance and market 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.
