Winchester | £42,000 - £55,000 + Benefits
Looking for a fresh challenge where your experience will be valued and your career can genuinely progress?
We're delighted to be partnering with a growing insurance broker that forms part of one of the UK's leading insurance groups, to recruit a Senior Commercial Claims Handler for their Winchester office.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a business that's investing heavily in its claims function and has ambitious plans for growth. If you're an experienced Commercial Claims professional who enjoys building relationships, taking ownership of claims, and delivering outstanding client service, this could be the perfect next move.
The Opportunity
You'll become an integral part of a thriving and supportive brokerage, managing a varied portfolio of Commercial Property and Liability claims for clients across the UK.
This is a role where you'll have genuine autonomy, working closely with clients, insurers and wholesale broker partners to ensure claims are handled efficiently and professionally from notification through to settlement.
You'll also have the opportunity to attend client meetings and visits, giving you greater exposure to clients and allowing you to become a trusted adviser throughout the claims process.
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.
