The Opportunity
Crucial Insurance is preparing for continued growth and we're accepting applications across several commercial broking roles. If you are a professional who values quality advice, strong client relationships, and a supportive team culture, please read on.
Designed for motivated individuals at the Trainee, Assistant Broker, Account Broker or Account Executive level.
You may be ready to immediately deliver as an experienced advisor or looking for a career opportunity where you develop the skills and grow into a senior advisory position.
Whether you are a commercial insurance legend or looking to become one, at Crucial Insurance you will build the technical, client service and advisory skills required for long‑term success in the insurance industry. This is a career role, not a transactional one.
Build Your Future with Crucial
Founded by Tony Venning, a recognised leader in the insurance industry with more than 20 years of international experience, Crucial Insurance & Risk Advisors is an award‑winning, boutique risk advisory firm that works with businesses across Australia. The firm combines his expertise with the strength of a high‑performing, collaborative team.

The team takes pride in delivering quality work in a supportive and forward‑thinking environment, where growth, flexibility, and collaboration are valued alongside technical expertise.
Located on the Sunshine Coast, Crucial is a place where people‑first, practical work meets professional growth.
About You
You're someone who values growth, learning, and client‑focused solutions. You're proactive, detail‑oriented, and enjoy building strong relationships with clients. You know how to listen, learn, and offer valuable insights, and you thrive in a collaborative, low‑politics environment.
Your New Role
We welcome interest from candidates at different stages in their careers:
Account Executive
Ideal for experienced commercial insurance professionals who enjoy managing their own portfolio. At Crucial, you'll step into a small–medium sized established portfolio—a genuine opportunity to take ownership without needing to build from scratch. You'll work closely with the senior team and have the autonomy to deliver exceptional outcomes for clients while continuing to build your portfolio.
Candidates applying for Account Executive roles must have:
* Tier 1 Insurance Broking qualification
* 3+ years of experience in commercial insurance advice
* Desire to grow professionally, with a clear interest in continuing education and development.
Account Broker
Suited to those with some industry experience who are ready to take the next step. This role offers structured development, technical exposure, and a clear pathway into account management. You'll be supported by a knowledgeable team committed to mentoring and professional growth.
Candidates applying for the Account Broker role must have:
* Tier 2 Insurance Broking qualification (Tier 1 desirable)
* 1–2 years of experience in general insurance or commercial broking
* Desire to grow professionally, with a clear interest in continuing education and development.
For the Trainee/ Assistant Broker Pathway
Perfect for individuals with strong communication skills, analytical capability, and a genuine interest in the insurance industry. This is a pathway role ideal for candidates from financial services, banking, mortgage broking or similar environments.
* Applicants must be willing to complete Tier 2 Insurance Broking. This will be funded by Crucial Insurance.
Who These Roles Are Not For
This position is not suited to candidates seeking a commission‑heavy, sales‑driven or call‑centre style environment. It will not appeal to those who prefer high‑volume transactional work or short‑term roles focused solely on sales quotas.
Crucial seeks professionals who value depth over volume, who take pride in precision and client outcomes, and who wish to build a sustainable, respected career in insurance advisory.
Why Join Crucial
* Award‑winning team recognised for advisory quality and client trust
* Advisory‑led culture focused on meaningful relationships, not transactional churn
* Mentorship and clear career pathway through to Senior Account Manager
* Potential flexibility and hybrid working options based on trust and capability
* People‑first, collaborative culture that values integrity and growth
Applicants ready to move beyond transactional broking and pursue a long‑term advisory career are encouraged to apply.
