About Us:

Launched in 2018 Jensten is one of the UK's largest independent broking groups.

Growing organically and through strategic acquisition we now place over £450m GWP into the market via our retail insurance broking, Lloyd's and London Market broking, and specialist underwriting arms.

We fill the void in the market between a consolidator and a provincial broker.

We have the scale, ambition and expertise to stand out, but the people, culture and entrepreneurial DNA to maintain our client focus.

Which is why we are not just one of the leading independent broking groups, we are one of the most exciting too.

And that is why you should join us

Our goal is to have people in our Group that enjoy being part of one team with the shared commitment to delivering insurance distribution excellence.

A big part of how we do this is by listening and then acting on what we hear.

Our EVP work is key to maintaining and enhancing our culture and making Jensten Group a fantastic place to work, learn and grow.
