Job Description

Latitude Brokers



We are looking for Associate Brokers to join our growing insurance solutions team in Singapore. Graduates with a major related to the maritime industry are preferred but anybody with an interest in this exciting and dynamic sector are welcome to apply. We are a small but growing business and need recruits with a start-up mentality, happy to get their hands dirty and eager to show our bigger, uglier competitors what customer service is all about. Going the extra mile for our clients is in our DNA, our parent company have been doing it for over 170 years!
We are passionately focused on understanding our client’s businesses and then designing and delivering insurance solutions that match their needs. We sit between insurance buyers and the insurance companies that they supply them so great interpersonal and negotiation skills are a must.
Extensive training and mentoring will be given and successful candidates should expect to be dealing directly with clients early on in their career. We believe that people learn best by being given responsibility and we highly value employees that take the initiative. There are no layers of management or strict divisions of labour at Latitude, we are an outcome centred business and everybody works transparently and collaboratively to achieve the same goal.
We see the professional development of our staff as key to obtaining our clients the outcomes they deserve and so fully support and fund training up to Associate level of the Chartered Insurance Institute.
Latitude has offices in Singapore and Hong Kong and our parent company, Filhet-Allard Maritime, has offices in Europe and Africa. Our client base is international and so are the insurance markets we access so a willingness to travel is important, a passion for it even better.
If you are interested in joining us at Latitude please send a CV and covering letter telling us why this role is for you to recruit@latitudebrokers.com, we look forward to hearing from you.
