NFU Mutual Agencies Reviews with Jobs

I enjoyed my time working for NFU. Realistic expectations for work load although it is a fast pace environment.Great training and support The only thing is they don’t pay enough for the work you do which is a shame because it really is a great company to work for!

Fair management willing to support.

Insurance Clerk (Former Employee) - Exeter, Devon - 4 August 2022

Intense learning provide by NFU MUTUAL to ensure knowledge and compliance in all areas of insurance. Friendly team, each agency is very different, run by the agents so it is like working for a small business with National Support. Great local loyal customers.

Supportive management, customer focused.

Office Manager (Current Employee) - Strabane, County Tyrone - 8 February 2022

I have worked with an NFU Mutual agency for over ten years. Within my agency there is a real team spirit and we all bounce off each other. No day is the same as we deal with many different issues, from insurance to farming issues and have such a unique relationship with our customers you can get asked for help in many areas! This is reflected in the management's drive to keep our customers central to all we do. As a claims handler I have the chance to help people when the have had a problem which is very rewarding. It is a fast paced job so I constantly learn new things and really enjoy that. At the start there is a lot to learn but there is a good training programme and the staff, both colleagues and management are very supportive. Management listen when there is an issue and this doesn't happen in very workplace!

Pros

Supportive Management Good team of people to work with Customer focused.

Cons

none

I worked with NFU Mutual Agencies for many years prior to 2020

Personal Assistant (Former Employee) - Stratford-upon-Avon - 11 November 2020

Every Agency is different, but efficient, positive and proper work (IMHO) was always rewarded, either by bosses, but most rewardingly, from clients. Customer service is king, especially for NFU Agents who find themselves, soaked to the skin, going the extra mile for clients, in a ploughed field, waiting to discuss issues with a client!!!

Pros

Cups of tea

Cons

Distressing situations - awful burglaries or horrendous acts of god etc.

Excellent company to work for

Customer Sales Adviser (Current Employee) - Takeley, Essex - 31 January 2020

Working for the NFU Mutual varies a lot between agencies. Each agency employs their staff directly and runs their agency in their own chosen way. These agencies are then representatives of NFU Mutual as a whole. The agency where I am employed offer excellent training, continued professional development and the chance for progression. The working environment is enjoyable and the pay is good for the role level. We are expected to upsell and cross sell products and financial services to our existing customers and as long as you are prepare to do this you will enjoy the role.

Best place ive worked

Customer Sales Advisor (Current Employee) - Takeley, Essex - 31 January 2020

I have worked at the West Essex branch in Takeley for 3 years and its the best place i've ever worked at. They give you lots of opportunities to progress and learn. The agents are very knowledgeable and are always willing to help you when you need. The office is a very friendly place to work and we have a lot of team outings as well as the cutest office dog. All NFU Mutual offices are different as you are employed by the agents of that office so i cant speak for all of them but i can really recommend the Takeley Branch.

Supportive, personable with real opportunities

Sales Executive (Former Employee) - Scotland - 23 December 2019

Working for an agency you are working for a small company, in this you get the benefit of having a close relationship directly with who pays your wages. Where I worked you were driven to succeed and given a lot of opportunity, however never felt under pressure. Would really depend on the individual agency, but in my experience all the Scottish ones are great!

Micromanage

Customer Service Advisor (Current Employee) - Ipswich, Suffolk - 7 October 2019

Extremely poor management. Zero progression Micromanaged Zero benefits with low salary Training is unsupported. Once you pass a test you are expected to know it all without any help. High turnaround of staff, so no one really knows what they are doing Very clicky management No HR support since there is no HR department!

Pros

Parking

Cons

Zero support
