Schemes Specialist (Development Role)
Salary: Salary up to £40,000
Location: Cheltenham
This is a developmental position for an experienced insurance professional who wants variety, responsibility, and progression. It is not a senior schemes leadership role. This is not a scheme design or underwriting role. You will not be building schemes from scratch, writing pricing models, or creating rating engines. Your focus is to ensure existing schemes run effectively, deliver agreed service levels, and are used correctly across the business.
You will be working on niche education and charity schemes, acting as the central link between insurer partners, internal trading teams, and scheme governance. Day to day, you will manage insurer relationships, monitor performance, and resolve issues quickly. You will influence internal teams to ensure schemes are used correctly and provide light technical input where needed, such as liaising on underwriting referrals and delegated authority schemes.
The schemes you will manage include independent schools, universities, and colleges, student accommodation providers and unions, language schools, group travel and contents schemes, and charity insurance schemes.
We are looking for someone with five to ten years of insurance experience and a strong understanding of how insurers and brokers operate. You will need to be proactive, confident, and comfortable influencing internal teams and challenging poor service. Ideal backgrounds include early-career underwriters seeking broader exposure, brokers with delegated authority experience, or relationship managers with insurance knowledge.
This is a hands-on role with strong training and support, hybrid working with two to three days per week in our Cheltenham office, and long-term progression potential.
