  • In conjunction with the wider business develop a proactive risk program

Who do we think will thrive in this newly created position?

If you are tenacious, commercially minded, passionate about change and development, this role will certainly offer you the opportunity to bring new ideas as well as the opportunity to implement them.

Do you naturally lead from the front? Are you ready to own the negotiations of £multi-million contracts while bringing new ideas to manage operational risk across our business?

Do you have previous experience of improving insurance processes in similar sized businesses with similar complexities? 

Have you led or are you ready to lead a new insurance strategy? If so this is a great time to join the Travis Perkins family.
