UK insurance broker scaling through acquisition and specialist vertical expansion
Jensten is a London-based commercial insurance broker in the middle of a consolidation sprint—actively integrating acquired systems, launching new specialist panels (cyber, charity, pharmacy), and expanding its broker network. The hiring profile is heavily sales-skewed (52 of 67 open roles), with senior-level dominance, reflecting a post-acquisition integration phase focused on revenue capture rather than new-platform build. The tech stack is lightweight (Teams, Office, Power BI, AWS WAF, SIEM) and compliance-heavy (ISO 27001, PCI DSS programs), typical of a regulated financial services firm scaling through market consolidation rather than technical innovation.
