Not every opportunity in commercial insurance is built the same. Some will offer you a desk, a book of business, and a set of KPIs to hit while someone three layers above you monitors your renewal ratios on a spreadsheet they'll never fully understand.This isn't one of those.This is a seat at the table - at a well-established, independently owned commercial brokerage in Lanarkshire that has just secured investment and is now building intelligently for the next chapter.That means new systems, a sharper client proposition, a structured approach to growth - and a deliberate decision to bring in the right person to help run it. So what does this actually look like? You'll take ownership of a portfolio of director-level managed commercial accounts - SME and mid-market clients that currently sit with the MD. That frees the MD up to focus on strategic growth, while you become the trusted face and relationship holder for clients who expect and deserve proper, professional service. Alongside that, you'll be active on new business - converting opportunity that the investment work has unlocked, building referral streams, and executing on leads that are already in motion.This isn't cold-calling into the void. The groundwork has been done. And over time - at a pace that's right for you both - you'll begin to take on parts of the operational running of the business.Strategy. Leadership. The bigger picture. The MD is invested in building someone up alongside them, not just filling a vacancy. Here's what that actually means for your career: You won't be anonymous here. There's no head office politics, no quarterly earnings call pressure, no regional director breathing down your neck about cross-sell ratios.This is proper, independent broking - where client relationships are built properly, decisions are made by people who actually understand insurance, and the culture is shaped by the people in the business rather than a corporate handbook written in 2009.The MD will mentor you directly. You'll have visibility across the whole operation. And if you want to grow into a genuine leadership position - operational, strategic, or both - this business is being deliberately structured to make that possible.Where you end up here is largely up to you. What you'll bring: Solid grounding as a commercial insurance Account Executive - you're comfortable handling varied SME portfolios and stepping up to mid-market complexity The interpersonal skills to build real relationships at director and business owner level Genuine new business hunger - not just retention instincts Ambition that goes beyond managing a book. You want more, and you're ready to earn it Ideally a background or familiarity with Lanarkshire / central Scotland commercial markets, though this isn't a dealbreaker The package: Salary to £60,000 depending on experience, plus a competitive benefits package and performance bonus. Hybrid working - a blend of office time, client-facing work, and home working structured around what makes sense for the opportunity and the business. This one won't hang around. The MD is looking for the right fit, and when they find it, that'll be that. If the above sounds like the career move you've been waiting for - or even just one worth a conversation - get in touch. Stuart McKenna Business Director IDEX Consulting ? At IDEX, we strive for an inclusion-first company culture where everyone is treated fairly and can bring their authentic selves to work.

This role supports flagship offerings such as always on monitoring (Pulse), competitive intelligence (Compete) and trend analysis. This position is not client facing, so presentation experience and client facing experience are not required for this role. Because this role reports to the department's senior leadership, such close collaboration provides the Jr. Analyst with visibility and learning opportunities beyond that of a typical junior analyst level role. The Jr. Analyst will work closely with our Global Intelligence colleagues and, periodically with our account teams.

This job opportunity will permit you to join a small, evolving intelligence team where your work genuinely shapes outputs, and where you will have exposure to a wide range of FINN Partners' global clients, business sectors, and issues, and where you have opportunity to improve, challenge and redesign frameworks, dashboards, and methodologies, while working within our team culture that actively encourages suggestions, experimentation and new ways of working. You will be trusted with responsibility, encouraged to challenge how things are done, and given space to grow your technical expertise in a supportive, senior led environment. About the FINN Partners Global Intelligence Lab FINN Partners is an award winning global, integrated marketing agency (public relations, advertising, marketing). Our internal department - the FINN Partners Global Intelligence Lab - is our agency's dedicated marketing research, analytics and intelligence capability. We provide always on monitoring, competitive intelligence, audience insight, trends identification and PR measurement to inform communications strategy, creative development and executive decision making. The team works across our client sectors including travel & tourism, healthcare, financial services, technology, luxury and public affairs, supporting both retained clients and new business globally. Our Lab is in a phase of renewal and growth. We are rebuilding and strengthening our intelligence capability to better serve clients, account teams and leadership with sharper, faster and more actionable insights. This Jr. Analyst role sits at the heart of that ambition. Responsibilities Increase the scale, speed and consistency of Global Intelligence outputs. Strengthen FINN's always on monitoring, Pulse and Compete offerings. Enable senior team members to focus on interpretation, storytelling and client engagement. Execute day to day data analysis across social listening, media monitoring and digital intelligence projects. Build, maintain and optimise complex Boolean queries across multiple platforms. Pull, clean and structure datasets for use in Pulse dashboards. Compete reports and ad hoc analysis. Conduct volume, sentiment, share of voice and thematic analysis across brands, competitors and issues. Identify emerging narratives, anomalies, spikes and risks in large datasets. Support trend analysis, audience exploration and message pull through analysis. Quality check data outputs to ensure accuracy, consistency and methodological rigour. Document methodologies, assumptions and limitations clearly, for internal use. Support internal teams with rapid data requests and intelligence "quick turns". Requirements Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in a quantitative, analytical or communications related field. 1-3 years' experience in data analysis, media intelligence or social listening. Analytically and technically strong applicants who are former employees or are power users of platforms such as Meltwater, Talkwalker, Brandwatch, or Sprinklr are highly desired. Inside knowledge from platform-side experience is highly desired. Advanced proficiency in at least one major social listening / media intelligence platform. Strong Boolean logic and query building capability. Advanced Excel / Google Sheets skills (pivot tables, formulas, data cleaning). A self starter who works effectively independently and is someone who has comfort working with large, messy datasets. Curious, detail oriented and motivated by problem solving. Highly proficient in written English, with the ability to clearly annotate findings and insights. Ability to work independently, manage time zones, and deliver to deadlines. High attention to detail and methodological discipline. To Apply Please upload your resume and cover letter detailing your prior work experience. While we appreciate the interest of all candidates, we will only respond to those with whom we have a greater interest.
