About the scheme
You’ll join our National Intermediary Services (NIS) team – a dynamic and growing part of the business that helps NFU Mutual meet more of our customers’ insurance needs by accessing products through carefully selected external insurers. We step in when a customer’s insurance needs fall outside of NFU Mutual’s usual appetite – ensuring they stay protected and stay with us.
This apprenticeship opportunity sits within our Account Administrator role, giving you the chance to earn, learn, and build a meaningful career in insurance – all while being part of a supportive and fast-growing team.
As part of the scheme, you’ll gain a recognised insurance qualification (Cert CII) and complete a structured development programme designed to set you up for success. You’ll have 20% protected study time built into your week, plus plenty of support from your manager, mentor, and a dedicated programme lead to guide you from day one through to your end point assessment.
What makes this scheme different is that your progression is shaped around you. As your skills grow, we’ll work with you to tailor your development – exploring areas of the role you enjoy most, while also supporting the needs of the wider team. Whether you’re interested in more technical work, systems, or direct customer interaction, we’ll help you carve out a path that makes the most of your strengths.
You’ll be joining on a fixed-term contract for the duration of the apprenticeship, but providing you complete the programme and meet expectations, you’ll move into a permanent role within the team. There’s also a completion bonus to recognise all your hard work once you finish.
What you can expect
In your first few months, you’ll focus on learning the ropes – supporting with admin tasks such as uploading policies, updating spreadsheets, allocating emails, and getting comfortable with our systems. These tasks are a key part of our day-to-day and give you a solid grounding.
As your confidence grows, you’ll start to get involved in more technical and varied work – including handling cases, issuing policies, supporting our broking and binding teams, and liaising with our agency network. You’ll also have the chance to support project work and other ad hoc tasks, giving you exposure to new areas as the team continues to evolve.
We offer hybrid working, with the option to work from home up to two days a week once you’re fully up to speed. During your initial training, you’ll spend more time in the office to help you settle in. You’ll be joining a close-knit, friendly team who really look out for one another – many of whom started in the same way.
Application process
If your application is shortlisted, you’ll be invited to complete an online assessment designed to measure your potential for success, such as your ability to learn and solve problems. The following stage will be a telephone interview with a member of our team, and the final stage will be an in-person assessment centre, where you’ll participate in a variety of activities, including a group exercise, a role-specific task, and a skills-based interview. These will be taking place on Monday 28th July and Friday 1st August.
Please note this role is not eligible for visa sponsorship as it does not fulfil the criteria set by the Home Office.
This vacancy may close early depending on application volumes, so we recommend getting your application in as soon as possible!
About you
We’re not expecting you to have loads of experience – that’s what the apprenticeship is here for – but we are looking for people who are organised, proactive, and ready to make the most of the opportunity. You’ll need to balance your day-to-day responsibilities with your apprenticeship work, so being able to manage your time, stay motivated, and keep things on track will be key. A positive attitude, a willingness to learn, and the ability to work well with others will take you a long way in our team. If you enjoy solving problems, helping people, and being part of a supportive team that’s always learning and improving, you’ll fit right in.
To be eligible, you’ll need to have (or be predicted) at least four GCSEs at grade 4/C or above, including English and Maths.
