Success!
I had to create a policy for Microsoft Intune and apply it as per the instructions. The mistake that I made was selecting the wrong non-intuitively named option when I was creating the policy. I needed:
Platform:
Android Enterprise
Profile type: (Personally-Owned Work Profile)

This was where I then selected:
Add and remove accounts
Allow all accounts types
