Group Agency Manager

Jensten have an exciting opportunity for a Group Agency Manager.

We recognise that great people don't always tick every box, and we're excited to hear from candidates who can demonstrate potential, enthusiasm, strong organisational skills, and a willingness to learn. Previous experience in agency management isn't required, and we welcome applications from graduates, career changers, and individuals at the start of their professional journey.

Working as part of a close-knit team of three, you'll receive training, support, and exposure to a wide range of stakeholders across the business while developing specialist knowledge of insurer relationships, agency agreements, regulatory requirements, and business processes across the Group. You'll play an important role in supporting the administration of insurer, MGA, sub-broker and inter-company agency agreements, including Terms of Business Agreements (TOBAs), helping to ensure robust processes and controls are maintained across the organisation.

This is a remote position, working Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 5:30pm, with the expectation of attending one in-person meeting per month in Huntingdon.

What You'll Do

• Maintain and update a central TOBA and sub-agent log.

• Support the onboarding of new, amended, and acquired insurer and sub-broker agencies.

• Assist with processes that enable wholesaling and cross-selling of Group products.

• Review insurer TOBAs and support new agency applications.

• Handle agency and TOBA maintenance activities and respond to queries.

• Support the setup and integration of sub-agents, franchisees, and acquisitions.

• Assist with audit requests relating to insurer and client money processes.

• Produce information and responses for regulatory, conduct, and internal reporting requirements.

• Build strong working relationships with insurers, brokers, and colleagues across the Group.

• This list is not exhaustive and other activities will be required to support senior team colleagues and mini-projects.

About You

We're open-minded about your background. You don't need to have worked as a Group Agency Manager before and we recognise that successful candidates may come from a variety of educational, professional, or industry backgrounds.

What matters most is your willingness to learn, your attention to detail, your ability to build relationships, and your desire to develop into a specialist role within a growing business.

We'd particularly welcome applications from:

• Recent graduates looking to build a career in financial services or insurance.

• Individuals with experience in administration, operations, customer service, compliance support, account handling, underwriting support, or other office-based roles.

• A proactive mindset, curiosity, and a willingness to learn new skills.

• Confidence using Microsoft Outlook, Word, and Excel.
