Anyone work in Insurance?

I am looking for a new position, I have 5yrs experience and last position was a Sales Manager in Personal Lines, I also have my IF1 from the CII. Can anyone help or put me in touch with the right people?

Very few people in the insurance industry over here are from our neck of the woods. Almost all are Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi or Lebanese, so you would not be suitable I am sure.

Surely they would still need Western experienced people to Manage these guys and pass on the experience. I would definately be suitable ;).

Sorry but no...there are only a small handful of Brits at General Manager level and openings there are as frequent as British gold medals at the Olympics. This is a Third World country, mate.
