Looking for more than just a job? Ready to build a career where your effort directly drives your success?
At L&C Mortgages, we don’t just offer opportunities, we create careers. As the UK’s leading fee-free mortgage and protection broker (with 160+ awards to our name), we’re growing fast and investing in the next generation of Protection Advisers.
With a start date of the 1st September 2026, based at our bustling Newcastle office, this is your chance to step into a structured, supported, and genuinely rewarding career. But let’s be clear from the off: it takes focus, resilience, and hard work to succeed. If that excites you, you’ll fit right in.
Why This Role Stands Out
This isn’t just a “learn as you go and hope for the best” role.
From day one, you’ll receive full training, structured coaching, and ongoing support to take you from trainee to fully qualified Protection Adviser — with the opportunity to earn well and flourish within the industry.
You’ll be helping customers protect what matters most: their homes, families, and financial security, making your role both meaningful and impactful.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Speaking with customers to understand their needs and concerns, starting that all important discussion into the significance of Protection
- Advising on protection products like Life Insurance, Critical Illness Cover, and Income Protection
- Delivering clear, tailored recommendations
- Managing your cases with keen organisation, accuracy and attention to detail
- Balancing customer care, compliance, and performance targets
This is a fast-paced, target-driven environment where effort = reward.
What We’re Looking For
We’re not expecting finished experts, this is a trainee role after all! But we are looking for potential.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
You’ll likely have:
- Experience in customer service or sales
- Strong communication and listening skills
- A genuine passion for helping people
- Drive, ambition, and the willingness to learn
- Keen organisation and team working skills
- The resilience to work in a regulated, performance-focused environment
Experience, whilst it's useful, it's the right attitude and willingness to get stuck in that what will truly get you far here. If you’re someone who wants to build a career, not just land a job, this could be the role for you.
What You’ll Get in Return
We take your development seriously, and we make sure your effort is recognised.
- Full inhouse training programme with a proven track record of success
- Support to achieve your R05 qualification and become a certified expert
- Clear progression pathways and excellent earning potential
- 24 days holiday + bank holidays + your birthday off
- Access to our comprehensive benefit provider Perkbox (discounts, wellbeing support & more)
- Recognition schemes like “The Extra Mile” awards within L&C, or even one day industry awards
- Regular social events (Summer & Winter company wide parties + much more)
Important Information
Due to structured training schedules, we are unable to offer alternative start dates. We appreciate it may be a while to wait, but we will process any successful candidates within plenty of time, nearer to the start date. Please only apply if you are available to start on 1st September 2026.
