• Self-employed opportunity spanning Scotland’s stunning North Coast 500
• Join the leadership team of an established local business with a significant renewal book
• Take charge of the local Thurso office and dedicated team of staff
• Create bespoke insurance solutions with the support of NFU Mutual.

At NFU Mutual, we’ve built our reputation on, and succeeded in, the agricultural sector. With a value of £15billion to the UK economy, agriculture is an ever-evolving sector and we’re focused on developing our place within the sector even further.

As one of three Partners responsible for both sites of the NFU Mutual Dingwall and Thurso Agency, you’ll be at the heart of a thriving business rooted in the local rural economy. A business that’s built its reputation on providing first-class insurance solutions to a range of customers and businesses across the northern most parts of the stunning Scottish Highlands.

From the Thurso office you’ll play a key role in nurturing existing customer relationships as well as prospecting and developing new ones. This is a self-employed business opportunity with absolute customer focus and the support of one of the UK’s largest insurers.

Your experience as an aspiring leader

This is a unique opportunity suited to those in a customer-facing role who thrive on developing and managing long-standing, trusted relationships with a range of contacts, from farmers to Finance Directors. Previous Insurance experience isn’t necessary as we’re more interested in your transferable skills and experience including:

• Account management
• Strong customer ethos with a dedication to customer care
• Working knowledge of Farming and Agriculture preferred.

Your passion for the local farming community and all things rural will enhance your credibility further as you take on the additional role of Group Secretary for the National Farming Union, Scotland.

Group Secretary, NFU Scotland (NFUS)

One of the other aspects of this opportunity is your role as the local Group Secretary for the NFUS. With support from the two existing Group Secretary partners in the Thurso and Dingwall agency, you’ll be the collective voice of the Union, bringing the agriculture community together and sharing best-practice and policy updates. With full backing from the NFUS, you’ll have access to expert advice and specialist support on everything from policy and increasing membership numbers to marketing and media. In this role you’re supporting the needs of the farming community and opening doors to future business opportunities for your agency.

Rewards and support

As a self-employed Partner and 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 business ventures which demand start-up funding or venture buy-ins, our model requires zero upfront capital investment.

In addition, as a Partner of the Thurso and Dingwall agency you’ll benefit from:

• A ready-made and loyal customer base with a renewal rate of 95%
• Uncapped earnings with projected income of £60k in year one alone. Your drive, vision and personal ambition are the only limit to future earnings potential
• Our commitment 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.

This is a ‘best of both worlds’ opportunity, balancing the flexibility of self-employment with the backing of an already successful team and NFU Mutual, a hugely respected insurance business.
