Sales Consultant

The New Business team has an amazing culture that reflects Admiral. The people who work here are humble, supportive, encourage each other and are always keen to see their colleagues do well. Our environment is an open and honest one with a family feel. We have high standards; it is important to us that we succeed in our teams and department. This is not a cold-calling role, it’s about helping customers to solve their problems and get the information they need.

Day to day, our New Business representatives take incoming calls about quotes that have been generated online and deal with customer queries. This is a flexible role that would give you the opportunity to make the most of hybrid working – we’ll train you in our office space in Newport so you can meet us in person and settle in, and once you’re fully trained, you’ll be working from our Cardiff office, or your own home. Ditch some of the daily commute or help build our vibrant culture through bringing your personality to our office space – we’re offering you the best of both worlds. We will cover your travel costs between Newport and Cardiff for the first 12 months of your employment.

This is a full-time position with long-term career prospects on offer in a hugely successful company. The pay structure is varied depending on skillset and performance. Our Basic Salary starts at £19,100, and with additional product bonuses and incentive your overall package could reach £35,000+. You will also be enrolled in our lucrative Staff Share Scheme so you will own a piece of the company you work for, receiving additional bonuses as a shareholder. Not only that, but we offer lucrative, seasonal overtime deals to further enhance your earning capacity.

Full & extensive training is provided, so you won’t need specific insurance experience. We just ask that you’re capable of absorbing the theory and putting it into practice – being a motivated, resilient, and confident individual is key.

The office opening hours are between 8-8pm on weekdays and 9-5pm on weekends. Your contracted hours will be 38.5 hours per week, and you have the option to build up some flexi hours to use as time off throughout the year.

Job Purpose:
