Description:
Commercial Insurance Account Handler | Agriculture Specialist
Location: North Yorkshire – Flex Benefits
Salary: Up to £45,000 (DOE) + Comprehensive Benefits
Are you an insurance professional with a passion for the agricultural sector? We are looking for an experienced Account Handler to join a premier brokerage in North Yorkshire. This is a chance to manage a high-quality portfolio of farming and estates business within a team that truly understands the rural economy.
The Role
You will act as the backbone of the client service team, providing technical support to Account Executives and maintaining strong relationships with a diverse range of agricultural clients.
• Renewals & Mid-term Adjustments: Manage the end-to-end renewal process for complex farm and agricultural portfolios.
• Technical Advice: Offer expert guidance on specialised covers including livestock, machinery, crops, and rural diversification (e.g., farm shops, holiday lets).
• Insurer Negotiations: Liaise with niche agricultural underwriters to secure the best terms and coverage for your clients.
• Client Retention: Act as the first point of contact for day-to-day queries, ensuring a high level of "boots-on-the-ground" style service.
The Rewards
We believe in rewarding expertise with a market-leading package:
• Financial: Base salary up to £45,000 (depending on experience).
• Work-Life Balance: 30 days holiday + Bank Holidays.
• Flexibility: Hybrid working arrangements (post-probation period).
• Benefits: A "Flex" benefits pot to tailor your perks (pension, healthcare, etc.).
What You’ll Need
• Experience: Proven track record in Commercial Insurance Account Handling (Farm/Agricultural experience is highly preferred).
• Knowledge: Familiarity with the unique risks associated with the rural sector.
• Communication: Ability to speak the language of the farming community—clear, professional, and grounded.
• Progression: Cert CII qualification is a plus, but we will support you in further professional studies.
