Roles like this really are few and far between. And what makes this one particularly special, is the fact that it sits within what is arguably the most exciting commercial insurer in the UK market right now. \n As a result of an internal promotion, this Trainee Business Development Manager opportunity has arisen within the Sales & Distribution team of this highly prestigious insurer. \n Our client operates in over 20 countries, and is very much renowned as a world-leader within its chosen markets. The company arranges insurance for some of the most fascinating risks on the planet, and has a reputation for excellence, innovation and formidable customer service. \n This Trainee BDM opportunity is extremely refreshing because our client is seeking someone who they can mould and nurture, and as such, it is not essential that you have previous experience within an official business development role. In fact, the person who did this role very successfully (before being promoted into a more senior BDM role), came from an underwriting background. \n You will be responsible for promoting the company’s suite of commercial insurance products to a panel of brokers all over the UK. Your duties will include, but certainly not be limited to, making Discovery telephone calls to brokers in order to find out what kind of business they are writing, and which of this insurer’s products will be relevant to them. In addition, you’ll identify specific risks for which the underwriting team can quote, and then follow the sales process through to the inception of cover. You’ll build strong relationships with your broker panel, ensuring that you are at the forefront of their mind when they are looking for quotes, and you will work closely with the regional business development team to ensure that sales objectives are met. Much of your work will be conducted over the telephone, but you will be encouraged to attend some face-to-face broker visits. \n When it comes to career development opportunities, this opportunity has them in abundance. The previous incumbent was promoted into a more senior BDM role within 12 months and there are many different areas of the business that you could move into down the line. \n It is absolutely essential that you have previous general insurance experience, either from an insurer or broker background. Ideally, this experience will have included commercial insurance products, although we will consider exceptional candidates from a personal lines / high net worth background. Just as importantly, you will be engaging, inquisitive, and good at spotting opportunities. You’ll have superb communication skills, as well as the ability to build strong rapport with brokers. Given the nature of the role, you will enjoy working to targets. \n Many people who join this company cite, “this is the best place I have ever worked at”. It is genuinely difficult to find a company that invests so heavily in its staff because they want them to benefit from “proper careers, where every member of staff has a mentor.” \n Our client operates a hybrid-working arrangement, allowing you to work 2 days from home. The team are well-renowned in the industry for their friendly, supportive and collaborative environment, and there are lots of sports and social events available, including an incredible annual summer ball! \n You’ll be rewarded with a generous basic salary (Negotiable depending on experience), plus a highly lucrative bonus scheme and impressive corporate benefits, which include substantial pension contributions and financial bonuses for passing CII qualifications. \n Aston Charles - a personalised service from industry experts \n General Insurance and Financial Services Recruitment \n For more jobs like this, or for more information on how we may be able to help you in your search for a new job, please visit our website

About us \n We are Bestway Healthcare, a leading pharmaceutical company. Our retail pharmacy business unit operates Well Pharmacy, the largest independent retail pharmacy chain in the UK and second largest overall. Our wholesale business unit operates two pharmaceutical wholesale brands, Lexon and Bestway Medhub which combined support over 5,000 independent community pharmacy contractors, processing over 100m packs of medication every year making us the 4th largest pharmaceutical wholesaler in the United Kingdom. \n \n The opportunity \n We're looking for experienced Product Managers to join our Digital Product team and own key parts of our patient and customer experience. We have several roles available across our digital and clinical platforms, supporting NHS prescriptions, private clinics, and eCommerce across multiple brands. Today these run on a mix of Magento, BigCommerce, and React Native, and each role will help shape their evolution as part of a broader five-year digital transformation. \n \n These roles sit at the heart of that transformation: guiding outsourced development squads, ensuring work aligns with business priorities, and championing patient-centred digital journeys. Our ambition is bold: to build a unified, connected healthcare ecosystem that puts patients and customers at the centre of everything we do – regardless of how they interact with us. \n \n Main Responsibilities \n\n • Support the Head of Product in shaping a true product culture – one where every team member knows the product inside out: the commercials, the metrics, and the patient needs, along with a clear sense of direction and a genuine voice in shaping it.\n, • Own the product vision and roadmap for your platform(s), working across multiple brands where relevant.\n, • Guide remote and distributed squads, providing continuity across teams working on shared technical foundations.\n, • Act as the day-to-day line of direction for engineers and UX on your team.\n, • Partner with business stakeholders to shape requirements and priorities, balancing near-term delivery with longer-term strategic goals.\n, • Own the commercial performance of your platform(s) against the relevant P&L, tracking key metrics and using them to prioritise and justify roadmap decisions.\n, • Ensure workstreams meet regulatory, clinical, and commercial needs while driving measurable impact for patients and customers.\n, • Translate requirements into clear, actionable product increments and acceptance criteria.\n, • Monitor progress and proactively flag risks, misalignments, or delivery concerns.\n, • Drive continuous optimisation of digital journeys to improve conversion, retention, and patient experience.\n, • Collaborate with other Product Managers to ensure your initiatives are integrated into the wider digital product landscape.\n, • Communicate clearly and confidently with technical and non-technical stakeholders.\n, • Work pragmatically in a fast-moving environment with evolving priorities and high visibility.\n\n \n The Ideal Candidate \n\n • Strong product management experience across digital platforms (web and/or app), ideally in multi-brand or multi-service contexts.\n, • Proven ability to deliver in complex, regulated, or highly integrated environments (healthcare experience an advantage but not essential).\n, • Experience guiding outsourced or distributed squads, with a balance of oversight and empowerment.\n, • Skilled at collaborating with engineering, UX, data, and business stakeholders to align priorities and deliver outcomes.\n, • Commercially astute: able to link product decisions to measurable impact (revenue, conversion, retention, efficiency, or patient experience) without losing sight of the outcomes that matter beyond the bottom line.\n, • Strong technical acumen: comfortable with backend integrations, APIs, and third-party platforms, with the depth to guide and challenge engineering approaches directly, not just at a high level.\n, • A best-in-class mentality: someone who benchmarks our platforms against the best digital experiences anywhere – not just healthcare – and doesn't ask patients to lower their expectations simply because it's a health product. Pragmatic about what a true MVP looks like, but never about the standard we're aiming for.\n, • Comfortable managing ambiguity: able to cut through complexity, clarify scope, and keep delivery on track.\n, • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical audiences.\n\n \n We know this is a broad and ambitious list. If you don't meet every point above but you're genuinely working towards this direction – building deeper technical range, growing into leading a team, sharpening your commercial thinking – we'd still love to hear from you. Tell us where you are on that journey and where you want to go. \n \n Bestway Healthcare is proud to be a diverse and inclusive employer. If you have any specific requirements, we'll do everything we can to support you. Whether it is to find a pharmacy that is accessible, or if it is a part time position you are looking for, we can help find the role that is right for you. If you need us to make any reasonable adjustments to our recruitment process, we will be happy to accommodate you. \n Please be aware that due to the high number of applications we receive it may not be possible for us to provide an outcome to all applicants.
