A scale-up venture for B2B sales leaders with a passion for driving growth


  • Self-employed leadership opportunity in a high-performing Financial Services agency

  • Significant renewal book with new business growth potential in Commercial and HNW

  • Uncapped earnings with no capital investment required

  • First year's OTE c£80k, stretching to £100k for high achievers with proven leadership.


At NFU Mutual, we’ve built our reputation on, and succeeded in, the agricultural sector. From there we’ve evolved our expertise to expand into the wider commercial landscape, providing tailored solutions to a range of businesses from local independents and SMEs through to larger £multi-million complex corporations.


Aligned to NFU Mutual’s expansion into the commercial arena, a new Partner appointment is available within the NFU Mutual Edinburgh & The Lothians Agency. The current Partners’ ambitions are to accelerate growth of the non-farm book, primarily leading with a scale-up of Commercial Lines given the proximity to Edinburgh and other hotspots across the Central Belt. With the support of two experienced partners and a dedicated team of staff, you’ll be walking into a fully optimised operation with a sizeable renewal book and pipeline of prospects.


Your responsibility will be to lead on the agency’s ambitious scale-up plan for Commercial & HNW clients, with end-to-end accountability from setting strategy to making it happen.

Combining sales leadership with commercial flair


Whilst previous experience in Commercial or HNW Broking would be advantageous, we invite applications from other sectors and professions with the following transferable skills and experience:



  • B2B consultative sales with key account management

  • Strategic leadership with strong people skills

  • Commercial acumen with the ability to develop sales and retention strategies

  • Customer ethos with a dedication to customer care.

Rewards and support

As a self-employed Agent of NFU Mutual, your earnings are based on the performance of the agency. However, this is a self-employed opportunity with a difference. Unlike most self-employed business ventures which demand start-up funding or venture buy-ins, our model requires zero upfront capital investment. In addition, you’ll benefit from:



  • First year's OTE c£80k, stretching to £100k for high achievers with proven leadership

  • Earnings are uncapped - your drive, vision and personal ambition are the only limit to future income growth

  • A ready-made and loyal customer base with a renewal rate of c95%

  • Our commitment is to set you up for success and help you along the way too. Whilst it’s your business to run, you’ll have access to a host of NFU Mutual support services including sales, marketing, financial planning and so much more.
