Digital Trading Manager
Birmingham (Hybrid – 3 days in office)
Competitive salary + Excellent bonus & benefits package

Build Something Big. Lead Digital Growth. Own the Outcome.

Markel’s UK Broker channel is our largest and fastest-growing business and digital is central to our strategy through to 2030. We’re investing heavily in digital capability, new product development, and actuarial-led trading.

Now, we’re looking for a Digital Trading Manager to take a high-performing function and scale it into something truly market-leading.
This is not a “keep things ticking” leadership role.

This is your opportunity to lead, shape, and grow a digital business from £10m to £100m+.

The Opportunity:

Reporting to the Head of Trading, you’ll lead our digital new business team, overseeing all digital and actuarial-led products and their trading performance.

You’ll sit at the heart of commercial strategy, digital trading, and team leadership with real ownership of results and the autonomy to evolve how the function operates.

You’ll inherit:

• A stable, engaged team of 9 in Birmingham

• A growing product suite (set to expand significantly over the next 12–18 months)

• Strong foundations and the mandate to scale

What You’ll Be Doing:

You’ll lead from the front balancing commercial delivery, operational excellence, and strategic growth.

Build & Drive Performance

• Own digital new business targets (~£7m and growing)
