A well‑established independent insurance broker on the outskirts of Blackburn is expanding and now looking to welcome two new Commercial Account Handlers into their close‑knit team. This is a small, sociable brokerage where personality genuinely matters. The environment is collaborative, supportive and fun — they work hard, celebrate success and offer real progression for the right people.

You'll work closely with the Director, gaining autonomy, visibility and hands‑on development rarely found in larger firms. Both roles are Monday to Friday, office‑based. Parking is available, and there are strong public transport links for those who don't drive.

The Opportunities

They are recruiting for two positions within the team:

1) Trainee Commercial Account Handler

For someone with existing commercial insurance experience who is ready to step up, grow and be coached into a full Account Handler role.

2) Experienced Commercial Account Handler

For someone confident managing a commercial portfolio, ideally with mid‑corporate exposure, who can hit the ground running and take on more autonomy from day one.

Key Responsibilities (for both roles)

• Handling renewals, MTAs and new business

• Negotiating terms with insurers

• Managing and developing client relationships

• Ensuring compliant, accurate documentation

• Supporting on claims where required

What We're Looking For

For both roles:

• Commercial insurance experience (trainee level or mid‑corporate for the experienced hire)

• Acturis experience — essential

• Strong communication and negotiation skills

• Knowledge of FCA requirements

• A positive, team‑focused personality

What's On Offer

• £25,000 - £35,000 DOE

• Tailored development depending on experience

• Direct support and mentoring from the Director

• Full autonomy as you grow

• Clear progression opportunities

• A genuinely enjoyable, sociable office culture

If you're looking for a role where you're valued, trusted and part of a supportive team, one of these opportunities could be the ideal next step.
