GaiaSicura Ltd – Broker and Client Executive
About the Role
The broker role will be a primarily market facing traditional insurance broking position with a focus on placing policies for nature regeneration projects - initially in the carbon credit space and growing into other bespoke policies developed by the team
The role will require a focus on relationship building within the nascent marketplace of nature regeneration, with the broker building the company’s reputation amongst insurers, potential new insurers, and establishing the company as a sophisticated brokerage

Given GS’s new entrant setup the broker will also be required to be flexible around other duties such as assisting with marketing, business development amongst wholesale and retail clients, and thought leadership in the marketplace

About GaiaSicura Ltd
GaiaSicura Ltd. is building the world’s first nature-centric insurance brokerage dedicated to securing a future for nature. Our mission is to help to create net-positive outcomes for all stakeholders involved in nature restoration by structuring risk-transfer solutions that enable regeneration, protect environmental value, and unlock capital across the nature economy.
We advise and place insurance for project developers, investors, and intermediaries active in:
Carbon and biodiversity credit markets
Nature-based infrastructure and co-benefit alignment
Restoration-linked financial instruments
Environmental performance and resilience insurance
The opportunity is urgent and global. Regulatory and voluntary frameworks - from the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) to Science Based Targets for Nature - are accelerating demand for transparent, insurable performance in the nature economy. Mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain in the UK, evolving offset regimes globally, and the race toward Net Zero by 2050 are putting natural capital at the heart of policy and capital flows. Investors, corporates, and insurers increasingly recognise that without structured risk transfer, nature-positive finance cannot scale. GS operates at this nexus, translating environmental exposure into formats the global insurance market can price, structure, and deploy capacity against.
