Job description

I’m working with a specialist insurance group that is looking for a Business Development Executive to join their Credit Insurance team and lead growth across the South East region. This is a hybrid role offering flexibility and autonomy, with the potential to earn up to £70,000 plus commission for the right candidate.

This is a pure new business role where you’ll focus on generating high-value deals and building a strong pipeline. You’ll leverage your market knowledge and contacts to secure opportunities, attend networking events, and negotiate confidently with underwriters. You’ll also work closely with internal teams to ensure smooth onboarding and exceptional client service.

The ideal candidate will have experience in trade credit insurance and a proven track record in B2B sales. However, we are also open to strong sales professionals from related industries such as banking, credit agencies, commercial finance, invoice discounting, factoring, and other financial services. If you understand credit risk and thrive in a consultative sales environment, this could be a great fit.

You’ll need excellent influencing and negotiation skills, strong commercial awareness, and the ability to manage competing priorities effectively. A hunter mentality is essential, along with the confidence to work independently and deliver results.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to join a growing team that values ambition and success. If you’re ready to take ownership of your territory and maximise your earning potential
