We’re committed to creating a brighter, more sustainable future. Join us and be part of a company that supports charitable causes and values community involvement.
Are you ready to kickstart your career in the insurance industry, gain professional qualifications, and work for a company that genuinely cares about your wellbeing? If so, this is your chance to join a dynamic team in Chichester as a Digital Trading Customer Account Executive / Trainee Underwriter at Zurich Municipal.
Zurich Municipal is a leading provider of insurance and risk management solutions for the public and voluntary sectors.

We provide insurance for organisations of all sizes across the UK, from insuring a large local authority to small community groups.
Equally important will be the development and strengthening of relationships internally, through the wider Zurich UK business, ensuring our proposition continues to meet customer needs and requirements.
Many of our employees work flexibly in a variety of different ways, including part-time, flexible hours, job share, an element of working from home or compressed hours.
