Commercial Insurance Account Executive

Commercial Insurance Account Executive

Winchester | £50,000–£80,000 + Car Allowance + Excellent Bonus Scheme

Are your new business figures growing faster than your salary?

Perhaps you feel undervalued by your current broker, your earnings no longer reflect the income you generate, or you are simply ready to join a more ambitious business where your contribution will be properly recognised.

If so, this could be the opportunity you have been waiting for.

CKB Recruitment is working with a rapidly growing insurance broker, who are part of a very well known and well thought of group in the industry. The company now employs approximately 30 people at its Winchester head office and, as well as having an East Anglia operation, and has ambitious plans for continued growth and expansion.

They are now looking for a driven and commercially minded Commercial Account Executive who can win new business, develop lasting client relationships and play an important role in the firm’s continued growth.

A genuine platform for growth

This broker generates a significant flow of high-quality commercial leads, giving you a strong platform from which to create opportunities and grow your own book of business.

There is no requirement to bring clients with you, although naturally any portable business or existing relationships would be welcomed.

You will have the autonomy to identify and pursue new opportunities, build trusted relationships with commercial clients and retain the business you win moving forward.

The role

Your responsibilities will include:

Following up and converting high-quality commercial leads

Identifying and developing new business opportunities

Building strong relationships with key business decision-makers

Understanding clients’ risks and wider insurance requirements

Working with insurers to obtain competitive and comprehensive solutions

Presenting insurance recommendations clearly and professionally

Managing clients through the renewal process

Retaining and developing the business you win

Building a profitable and sustainable book of commercial business

Contributing to the wider growth of the brokerage

This is a genuine Account Executive opportunity offering autonomy, excellent earning potential and the resources needed to succeed.

What they are looking for

You will ideally have:

At least four years’ commercial insurance broking sales experience

A strong track record of winning new commercial business

Experience building and maintaining long-term client relationships

A solid technical understanding of general commercial insurance

Experience dealing with clients across a range of sectors and classes of business

The confidence to generate, develop and convert new opportunities

A proactive, energetic and commercially focused approach

The ability to retain and grow the clients you bring on board

They are looking for someone who wants to become an important part of an ambitious independent broker and contribute to its next stage of growth.

Salary and benefits

The package includes:

£50,000–£80,000 basic salary, depending on experience and track record

Car allowance

Excellent bonus scheme

Death-in-service cover at four times salary

Company pension

25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays.

Free onsite parking

Working hours are Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm, although the business operates with a grown-up “get the job done” approach. They offer hybrid working, 2 days a week from home.

With excellent lead flow, strong earning potential and ambitious plans for further expansion, this is an outstanding opportunity for a successful Commercial Account Executive who wants their results to be properly rewarded.
