Partner, Commercial

**NFU Mutual Agent Opportunity in Ruthin**:
As an Agent of the Ruthin Agency, you’ll have the opportunity to run and develop an already successful insurance business, in partnership with the existing Agents in the NFU Mutual Agency network.

Highly respected within the local farming and wider business community, the Ruthin Agency provides a solid foundation for you to build on. The agency team has a large and loyal customer base and provides services to an attractive mix of farming and, increasingly, non-farming businesses. This is a team that puts customers at the heart of everything they do. It’s what the agency’s reputation has been built on.

As a self-employed business partner, you’ll help to build on the previous success of the agency, driving future business growth in the local farming community and beyond - tapping into a wider mix of SMEs, commercial and mid-corporates as well as pockets of high-net worth opportunity.

**About You**:
Ready to be your own boss, you relish the opportunity to create business plans and implement strategies that provide a professional and personal service to a range of customers.

An excellent communicator, and preferably fluent in both Welsh and English, you’re great with people from a wide range of backgrounds. Your inherent drive for results and commitment to client care will inspire others to follow.

Collaborative, positive and supportive, you know how to recruit, reward and develop others to deliver a personal service ensuring all relevant regulations and standards of compliance are met.

Our existing Agents come from a broad range of backgrounds, and whilst knowledge of insurance or financial services is advantageous, more important is a strong link to the local farming community or related industries due to the core Farming base of the Ruthin agency.

**NFU Cymru Group Secretary**:
The NFU Cymru represents the voice of agriculture up to the highest levels, on both national and international platforms. For more than 110 years, the NFU Cymru and NFU Mutual have enjoyed a close relationship, working together to provide a first-class service to the farming and wider rural community.

As an NFU Cymru Group Secretary you’ll play a major role at the heart of your local farming community. You'll champion the interests of local farmers, arrange local meetings and events, recruit and retain members and keep them up-to-date on agricultural policy. With full backing from the NFU Cymru, you’ll have access to expert advice and specialist support on everything from policy and increasing membership to marketing and media.

**Rewards & Benefits**:
You’ll be joining an established business in an existing office, andwon’t need to make any up-front capital investment.

As a self-employed Agent, your income will be built into the Agency financial structure. Your drive, vision and personal ambition are the only limit to your future earning potential.

This self-employed opportunity gives you the autonomy to grow an existing business with the backing of a major organisation whilst enjoying the freedom of being your own boss.

As well as investment support, you’ll also have access to a full range of courses at our dedicated Training Academy; including sales, business and finance planning, team recruitment and NFU Mutual products.
