Introduction

At Pen, we don't just underwrite risk, we unlock possibility. We're a dynamic underwriting and distribution business backed by the strength of Gallagher and powered by a belief that every challenge has a solution. With entrepreneurial energy, niche expertise, and a bold growth mindset, we're transforming what it means to be an MGA in today's insurance landscape. Whether you're shaping new products, solving complex problems, or collaborating across teams, your ideas and initiative will help deliver smarter solutions for our clients-and move the industry forward. Here, agility meets stability. Creativity meets execution. And your career meets real opportunity. At Pen, we champion innovation, value accountability, and thrive on building something better together. If you're looking to join a team that's rewriting the future of underwriting, we'd love to hear from you.

Overview

Founded by petrochemical specialists over 35 years ago, OAMPS has built a strong reputation for providing expert insurance and risk management solutions to hazardous and environmental industries. Working across sectors including fuels, chemicals, wastewater, and environmental contracting, OAMPS has long-standing partnerships with industry bodies such as UKIFDA (and formerly the FPS), supporting fuel distributors with tailored insurance solutions aligned to their specific risks.

Today, OAMPS supports clients across the full lifecycle of their operations - from manufacture and import/export through to storage, haulage, installation, and servicing - delivering comprehensive protection that evolves with their business needs. From single-vehicle operators to large, complex organisations, OAMPS arranges both conventional and bespoke programmes, covering everything from assets and liabilities to cyber, balance sheet, and environmental impairment risks.

We're now looking for a knowledgeable and client-focused Account Manager to join the team. This is a varied and fast-paced role, where you'll support Account Executives while also taking ownership of your own portfolio of clients, ensuring they are exceptionally well looked after at every stage.

The role can be office-based or hybrid, with only occasional time required in the office.
