Job description

Own your book. Get to know the people behind it!
A good renewal starts with a conversation. What has changed for the client? Does their cover still fit? What do they need to understand before they make a decision?
Hinchen Recruitment Group is partnering with an established, privately owned insurance brokerage in Upper Mount Gravatt to appoint an Account Executive. You'll take over a portfolio of around 500 policies, with approximately 60% domestic and strata and 40% commercial. The commercial book is predominantly SME, spanning risks such as trade liability and professional indemnity.
Around 80% of the role is focused on renewals and servicing existing clients, with the balance spent following up referrals, responding to enquiries and identifying opportunities within the book. You'll have an introduction to the portfolio, administrative support for pre-renewals and a dedicated Claims Manager who handles most claims. Senior brokers are available to assist with complex placements.

What you'll do

• Manage renewals from the first client conversation through to insurer negotiations, placement and documentation.
• Handle quotes, endorsements and day-to-day enquiries, explaining cover and options in plain English.
• Stay close to clients so you can identify changing risks and gaps in cover.
• Follow up referrals and enquiries and convert suitable opportunities into new business.
• Maintain accurate file notes and compliant records, and bring in senior brokers when a placement needs specialist input.
