Perhaps you enjoy building genuine client relationships and delivering excellent service, but you are tired of heavily targeted environments, rigid hierarchies or businesses where culture is discussed more than it is demonstrated. We are delighted to be working with a highly successful insurance broker that is looking to appoint a Corporate Client Adviser to join its established team.

Most importantly, you will be collaborative, dependable and passionate about delivering an excellent client experience. You will enjoy being part of a close-knit team, support those around you and be comfortable working within a business where relationships matter. A Genuine Culture-First Business People genuinely enjoy working here, with the average length of service currently at 10 years! Colleagues communicate openly, help each other and take a real interest in one another. The team even has an active WhatsApp group where people share holiday pictures, television recommendations and everyday conversation. The company organises quarterly team days and evenings out, alongside a larger annual event.
