This hugely successful company boasts a turnover in excess of £300m, and has an impressive client list including Property Management Companies, Resident Management Companies and Right To Manage companies with individual sites valued at over £450M.
This firm is very much in “growth mode”, via both high-profile acquisitions, as well as continually securing new clients.

Additionally, the company has plans to expand into other international markets, which could result in career opportunities across the globe!

It's essential that you have some previous experience within the insurance market, although our client is very flexible in terms of what exact insurance discipline this is from. Just as importantly, you’ll have excellent interpersonal skills, with the ability to deal with, and secure buy-in from, a wide range of clients, including extremely wealthy property developers. It’s also vital that you are well-organised and efficient, with a commitment to delivering a very high level of service that is expected of this company.
