Job description

Build your book. Own the value. Take your share.

Most Account Executive roles talk about "long-term opportunity". Very few actually deliver on it. This one does.

As well as a regular new business bonus, you'll receive a lump-sum pay-out based on the value of your book of clients.

We're working with a well‑established, well‑backed insurance brokerage that has entered a major growth phase. With national coverage, ambitious expansion plans and a clear strategy to scale substantially over the next five years, they're now looking to hire high‑performing Account Executives / Account Directors across the UK.

The business

• In business for over 50 years
• Backed by major investment
• Hundreds of millions in GWP and hundreds of employees nationwide
• Acquisitive, fast‑growing and continuing to invest heavily in people, technology and regional leadership
• Offices across the UK with further consolidation into key regional hubs underway

Why this role stands out

This is a rare opportunity for income producers who want ownership‑style upside without needing to set up on their own.

Long‑Term Incentive Plan

• A lump‑sum payout every few years, linked directly to the value of your income book
• Designed to reward sustained performance and client retention
• Pay‑outs have historically been strong and have recently been enhanced further
• The structure increasingly reflects the true value of your book, rather than a token percentage

In short: build a quality book, and you share directly in its future value.

Package & earnings

• Once threshold is cleared, earn a percentage of all new business written
• Clear, transparent earnings structure with no unnecessary hurdles

Culture & working environment

• Flexible, grown‑up approach – input and outcomes matter more than desk time
• Minimal bureaucracy and fast, sensible processes
• Significant investment in technology and automation, removing admin‑heavy tasks
• Allows Account Executives and Account Directors to focus on clients, relationships and growth, not processing

Who this suits

• Experienced Account Executives / Client Directors who produce income
• Individuals with strong client relationships and a commercial mind‑set
• Those who want to build long‑term value, not just chase short‑term commission
• People who want autonomy, support and a credible financial upside

If you've ever felt that the value of your book benefits everyone except you, this role offers a genuinely different proposition.
