Insurance Account Executive

Cover Pilot is a new commercial insurance brokerage based in the North East, initially specialising in Motor Trade, Garage and Commercial Fleet insurance.

We’re looking for an experienced Commercial Insurance Account Executive who wants more than just another broking role. You’ll join us at an early stage, have genuine input into how the business develops and play an important part in building a modern, ambitious brokerage.

For the right person, there is real scope to grow with the company as Cover Pilot expands.

You’ll manage commercial clients from initial enquiry through to placement, renewal and ongoing support, while developing strong relationships with insurers and underwriting partners.

You’ll also help shape our broking processes, insurer relationships and technical standards as the business grows.

What you’ll be doing

• Managing new business, renewals and mid-term adjustments
• Broking Motor Trade, Fleet and other commercial risks
• Negotiating terms with insurers and MGAs
• Building long-term relationships with clients
• Developing insurer and underwriting relationships
• Supporting the development of Cover Pilot’s broking processes and products
• Maintaining high standards of FCA and Consumer Duty compliance

You’ll ideally have:

• Insurance qualifications (at least to Cert CII level and progressing)
  * A Must*
• Experience with Motor Trade, Fleet or related commercial risks
• Good knowledge of the UK commercial insurance market
• Confidence negotiating with insurers and underwriters
• Excellent communication and client relationship skills
• A practical, commercially minded approach

This is an opportunity to join a brokerage at the beginning rather than becoming another employee in an established corporate structure.

You’ll have real influence, responsibility and progression potential, with the opportunity for performance-related rewards and potential share options as the business develops.

If you’re an experienced commercial insurance professional who likes the idea of helping build something rather than simply maintaining it, we’d like to hear from you.
