Job Description

A growth opportunity for commercial minds

Engage with local farming and business communities

Craft bespoke insurance solutions for a loyal customer base

Self-employed opportunity backed by a top 10 UK financial services provider

NFU Mutual's agency network continues to expand, and the South East region is leading the charge. Our success is built on exceptional customer service, reflected in our 95%+ customer retention rate, and recognised by our three-time win as Which? Insurance Brand of the Year.

As a Partner in the Meopham and Sevenoaks agency, you'll be at the heart of a highly respected insurance business with deep roots in the community. You'll support a diverse client base across farming, commercial, high net worth and rural sectors, delivering the high standards of service that define NFU Mutual.

You'll bring a strong understanding of the rural economy and use it to build meaningful commercial relationships across our specialist sectors. Your leadership and strategic thinking will help shape the agency's direction, drive growth, and unlock its full potential.

This is a self-employed role with the full backing of one of the UK's most trusted insurers. You'll benefit from professional development opportunities, access to expert support, and the chance to work alongside a high-performing team.

Your experience and commercial flair

You'll play a pivotal role in the Meopham and Sevenoaks Agency, joining the leadership team to help shape the business and drive its future direction. With a genuine passion for farming and the rural economy, you'll create tailored insurance solutions that meet the needs of agricultural, high net worth, and commercial clients. You'll be ambitious about growing the business while continuing to support and strengthen relationships with existing customers.

Your focus will be on expanding our presence in the farming sector, while also working with SME and corporate clients across a variety of industries. As farming continues to diversify and modernise, you'll have the opportunity to carve out a specialism in this evolving space. You'll achieve this by using your sales expertise and people skills to build strong, lasting relationships that deliver real value.

Building business partnerships

NFU Mutual is a top 10 UK insurance provider with a focus on building relationships and putting our customers at the heart of what we do. Our mutuality is our difference and it works. With a 95% renewal rate, our status and respect in the agricultural world and beyond provides the foundations on which to grow your business.

Your new office, located in Sevenoaks, is home to a dedicated team of professionals who thrive in a collaborative, goal-driven environment. Here, growth is fuelled by a shared commitment to delivering outstanding service and driving strong sales performance.

The agency has built an exceptionally loyal customer base, thanks to long-standing relationships and a reputation for quality. You'll be joining a business where customers are not only supportive but genuinely value the service they receive. With ambitious plans for the future, this is a great time to be part of a team that's ready to take the agency to the next level.

Rewards and support

As a self-employed Partner and Agent of NFU Mutual, your earnings depend on the agency performance. Building on a strong core farming market, we're now ready to develop further opportunities and future growth potential across the area. Your energy, drive, vision and personal ambition are the only limit to your future earning potential.

There's no capital investment required, just your passion and drive for growth and sales.

We'll set you up for success. You'll have access to the NFU Mutual support services you need to continue to build a sustainable, profitable insurance business. And you'll learn from the Senior Partners who will share their career experience and skills. Further support includes sales, marketing, business insurance, financial planning, and risk management services.

NFU Group Secretary

One of the other aspects of this opportunity is being appointed an NFU Group Secretary. You'll be the voice of the Union, bringing the agriculture community together and sharing best-practice and policy updates. With full backing from the NFU, 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 this active farming community and opening doors to future business opportunities for your agency.
