This is an exciting opportunity to start your career in the dynamic world of insurance with our ‘earn as you learn’ apprenticeship programme.
The Lockton ‘producer’ role is the winning and retaining of business (new business development and client retention). This is a very simple statement, but the success of the producer group is fundamental to the success of Lockton. The producers work across all the Lockton business areas.
Lockton is a different type of business in our sector, as we focus only on those prospects where we have a cultural match and where we can demonstrably add value. This requires our producers to be knowledgeable and experienced across all areas of insurance, risk financing and industry sector.

- Execute marketing plans and where possible, engage in the winning of the business
The role of the apprentice in working with producers across their current existing client base:
