Primarily remote

Move beyond the traditional insurance environment and take ownership of a group-wide insurance programme across a large and diverse organisation.

This is a rare opportunity to gain exposure to claims, risk management, acquisitions, operational projects and senior stakeholder engagement, making it an ideal move for someone looking to broaden their experience and take the next step in their career.

You'll become the key insurance contact for the business, working closely with brokers, insurers and senior leaders while helping to shape the future direction of the insurance function.

The role is primarily remote, with occasional travel to other sites as required.
