Business Development Executive

Overview

Business Development Executive

You reach a point in your career where results still matter but how you get them matters more. If you work in insurance, you'll know exactly what we mean. You can build relationships, you know how to open doors. But too often, the way insurance is sold leaves you explaining things away rather than standing behind them. As a Business Development Executive here, insurance is still very much the core.

It's just done properly. You'll be joining an insurance business that has grown through trust, referrals and long-term relationships, not pressure tactics. In its entire trading history, it has never had a single complaint not one. That doesn't happen by accident. It comes from doing the right thing, setting expectations honestly, and walking away when something isn't right. That approach has worked brilliantly within a very specific niche.

That niche is now full, and the next stage is about taking those same values into wider commercial insurance markets. As the Business Development Executive, you're the first insurance conversation. You'll be speaking to business owners and decision makers, understanding their risks at a high level, and deciding whether there's a genuine fit. You're not closing policies or handling admin.

You're opening doors and qualifying opportunities before handing them over internally to be handled carefully and compliantly. That separation matters in insurance. It protects clients. It protects the business, and it protects you.

• You're the first insurance conversation and will speak to business owners and decision makers, understanding their risks at a high level, and decide whether there's a genuine fit.

• Manage your diary, relationships and time with minimal scripting and micromanagement.

• Supported with funded insurance qualifications and ongoing development, not tick box training, but proper learning that deepens understanding and strengthens conversations.
• Focus on relationships rather than paperwork; use judgement rather than scripts.
• Training and recognised insurance qualifications; competitive compensation with an OTE around £50k (basic salary depends on experience).
• No scripts, no call stats, and a role designed to empower you to manage yourself.
