Referment is working with an independent commercial insurance broker that advises organisations on general insurance, risk management and complex risk-transfer needs. The business is establishing a regional broking presence in Manchester and is looking for an experienced insurance professional to lead its general insurance activity across the North West.

This is a senior client-facing role combining business development, relationship management and regional planning. You will work with senior management on the local business plan while drawing on specialist colleagues elsewhere in the organisation to support clients with a broad range of commercial risks.

The Role

  • Lead the development of general insurance business across the North West region.
  • Meet prospective clients, understand their businesses and risks, and build lasting commercial relationships.
  • Help shape and execute the strategic plan for the Manchester operation alongside senior management.
  • Collaborate with broking and specialist teams across the wider business to develop appropriate solutions for clients.
  • Manage competing priorities carefully, maintaining accuracy and dependable follow-through in a deadline-driven environment.

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.

Desirable Experience

  • Experience across several classes of commercial insurance would be particularly useful, as the remit covers varied client needs rather than a single narrow product line.

This could suit an established commercial insurance broker, senior account executive or risk-management professional who enjoys both winning relationships and contributing to the direction of a regional business.
