I know there is some new content with the Cheery Man, and I know it can be accessed if you turn down the Bruiser's first job offer and ask for another. But if I haven't done that, is there any way to move on to that new content?

You don't have to play with permadeath on - you can start using saves.

You can always save before making a big decision and reload if it results in something unexpected like that. Also, you don't have to die to reset quests - you could always, for instance, win the game, and retire fabulously wealthy, leaving your next captain a mansion full of riches and stat-boosting items.

If you decline him, he stays gone for that captain. Someone else will be better able to give advice on save-editing, but I'd recommend just keeping yourself busy with other stuff until something unexpected happens and the captain dies anyway. Captains having a short life expectancy and the player starting over often is a part of the game; if you try to get a perfect game on your first try, you're in for a lot of disappointments.
"Explore. Take risks. Your first captain will probably die. Later ones may succeed."
