Business Development Manager - Insurance & Legal Recruitment

Remote (with 2-3 days/week in London/on client visits) | Full-time | Michael James Associates

Michael James Associates (MJA) is a specialist recruitment consultancy focused on Business Change, IT, and Risk & Compliance roles across the Lloyd’s/London insurance market and the legal sector. We’re looking for a Business Development Manager who thrives on being out there - building relationships, opening doors, and bringing in the business that fuels our delivery team.

What you’ll be doing :
  • Meeting clients face-to-face weekly - business lunches, industry events, and round tables across the insurance and legal markets
  • Spending 2-3 days a week in the City or travelling to clients around the UK, balanced with remote working
  • Winning new client relationships and turning conversations into instructed roles
  • Growing our existing accounts, staying front-of-mind so we’re first call for new vacancies
  • Hosting and attending roundtable events, building MJA’s profile and network in the market
  • Building a strong pipeline of live roles for the delivery team
  • Working closely with consultants to make sure client needs turn into placements
Why you’ll enjoy this role:
  • Genuinely relationship-first - this isn’t a desk-bound sales job, it’s built around meeting people
  • Weekly client meetings, lunches, and networking - you’ll be part of the market, not just selling into it
  • Real autonomy to build your own patch and way of working
  • Backed by a specialist, established consultancy with real credibility in insurance and legal recruitment
  • Uncapped earning potential - strong commission on every job you bring in and see filled
What’s on offer:
  • Competitive base + generous commission on jobs brought in and filled
  • Hybrid/remote base, with regular time in the City and on the road
  • A role built around people, not paperwork
What we’re looking for:
  • Proven B2B sales or business development experience - recruitment, insurance, legal, or financial services all relevant
  • A natural relationship-builder, equally comfortable in a boardroom or over lunch
  • Confident, personable, and genuinely energised by meeting new people
  • Based in or able to travel regularly to London/UK
  • Self-starter, target-driven, comfortable working remotely
