Insurance Advisor - Personal Lines (Training provided)

Ref: 4517| Posted: 4th Sep 2026

If you enjoy working with customers, providing great service and want to build a long-term career in insurance, this is an excellent opportunity to join a major, highly recognised insurance broking brand in Taunton.

You’ll join an established local team, helping customers with a range of personal insurance needs while developing your technical knowledge, confidence and career.

Whether you already have insurance experience or have built strong customer service and sales skills in another environment, you’ll receive the training, support and backing to develop further.

The role

You’ll be a key point of contact for new and existing customers, helping them arrange and manage the right insurance cover while building relationships that keep them coming back year after year.

Your day will include:

  • Speaking with new and existing customers about their insurance needs

  • Providing quotations and discussing suitable cover

  • Handling renewals and policy amendments

  • Identifying opportunities to help customers with additional insurance requirements

  • Building strong, long-term customer relationships

  • Liaising with insurers to achieve the right outcomes

  • Developing your product and technical insurance knowledge

This is a great role for someone who enjoys speaking with people, solving problems and delivering a genuinely good customer experience.

Build your insurance career

You’ll have the backing of a major insurance group, with excellent training, established insurer relationships and support towards professional insurance qualifications.

There is genuine scope to progress over time, whether your ambitions take you towards senior broking, account management, commercial insurance, leadership or another area of the wider business.

  • Insurance Advisor

  • Personal Lines Insurance Advisor

Most importantly, you’ll be confident speaking with customers, commercially aware, organised and keen to learn.

Working environment

The role is predominantly office based in Taunton, giving you the opportunity to work closely with an experienced local team and learn from the people around you.

Hours: Monday–Friday, 9:00am–5:30pm, plus one Saturday morning in two supporting telephone enquiries. You’ll receive time off in lieu for the Saturday worked.
