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.

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.

Your responsibilities will include:

\n
• \n

  Following up and converting high-quality commercial leads

\n
• \n

  Identifying and developing new business opportunities

\n
• \n

  Building strong relationships with key business decision-makers

\n
• \n

  Understanding clients’ risks and wider insurance requirements

\n
• \n

  Working with insurers to obtain competitive and comprehensive solutions

\n
• \n

  Presenting insurance recommendations clearly and professionally

\n
• \n

  Managing clients through the renewal process

\n
• \n

  Retaining and developing the business you win

\n
• \n

  Building a profitable and sustainable book of commercial business

\n
• \n

  Contributing to the wider growth of the brokerage

\n

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

You will ideally have:

\n
• \n

  At least four years’ commercial insurance broking sales experience

\n
• \n

  A strong track record of winning new commercial business

\n
• \n

  Experience building and maintaining long-term client relationships

\n
• \n

  A solid technical understanding of general commercial insurance

\n
• \n

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

\n
• \n

  The confidence to generate, develop and convert new opportunities

\n
• \n

  A proactive, energetic and commercially focused approach

\n
• \n

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

\n

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.

The package includes:

\n
• \n

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

\n
• \n

  Car allowance

\n
• \n

  Excellent bonus scheme

\n
• \n

  Death-in-service cover at four times salary

\n

  Company pension

\n
• \n

  25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays.

\n
• \n

  Free onsite parking

\n

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.
