Our Business Everywhen Corporate (formerly Towergate Corporate) is a rapidly expanding division of Everywhen (formerly Ardonagh Advisory), primarily based in Leeds city centre, with colleagues also working remotely across the UK. Formed in 2019, we are now a specialist team of over 60 insurance and risk management experts with over 120 clients, which between them account for over £100m of premium. Our clients are corporate and international businesses across various sectors, which are usually large, complex and/or global, each with a bespoke insurance and risk management programme.

The wider Everywhen business employs over 5,000 colleagues across over 125 offices in the UK and as part of The Ardonagh Group, over 12,000 people in 250+ locations globally. We are responsible for the placement of over £4.8bn in premium into the UK insurance market and $18bn globally, as the UK’s largest independent insurance brokerage.

Our Corporate Broking Roles

 As the business continues to grow quickly, a variety of Corporate Broking roles are available, which can be adapted to the right candidates, based on their experience and technical expertise. These are unique roles in the Leeds market, as our brokers are encouraged to provide advice directly to their clients and negotiate with insurers, rather than the traditional broker model of account handlers being restricted to servicing, processing and administration. We are looking for experienced corporate account handlers or brokers who provide excellent client service, technical expertise and thrive on their customer and insurer relationships and now want to progress into working with larger and more complex risks.

The roles are based at our brand-new offices in Leeds City Centre, with the flexibility to work remotely for a proportion of the week.
