What’s In It For You? * Earn While You Learn: A competitive starting salary up to £33k as you progress. * Fully Funded Qualifications: We will pay for and support you through your CII (Chartered Insurance Institute) qualifications—a massive boost for your CV. * Clear Career Pathway: Learn the ropes across personal, commercial, and claims insurance, giving you a 360-degree understanding of the business. * Culture: Work within a close-knit, friendly team that actually celebrates your wins.

Who You Are: We hire for attitude, not a piece of paper. This role would suit someone coming from retail sales, inside sales, or a sales rep background—or anyone with a strong overall sales background. You’ll be a great fit if you are: * A Natural Communicator: You are completely comfortable working in an office environment, building rapport, and dealing with customers on the phone, face-to-face, and over email. * Ambitious & Eager: You want a career, not just a 9-to-5 job, and you're eager to learn the role from the ground up. * Detail-Oriented: You take pride in your work and notice the little things. * Tech-Savvy: Comfortable with standard tech (Microsoft Office) and ready to learn new platforms quickly. Note: A good standard of education (like GCSE Maths) is preferred to help with the CII coursework. Ready to start your career journey? Apply today!
