Confident on the phone and looking for a role with a clear route to progress?

We’re recruiting four Business Development Executives to join an insurance brokerage at its Stockton office.

This business develops its BDEs into Insurance Brokers, providing training and practical experience along the way. The process typically takes around a year, depending on your development and readiness for the next step.

It’s an opportunity to put your communication skills to work, earn a monthly bonus and build specialist knowledge for a long-term career in insurance.

The role

You’ll contact prospective business clients, build relationships and generate opportunities for the broking team. Alongside this, you’ll develop your understanding of Professional Indemnity insurance and how brokers help businesses protect themselves.

• Contacting prospective clients by telephone, email and other channels.
• Building rapport, identifying opportunities and explaining the brokerage’s services.
• Following up enquiries and encouraging prospects to complete insurance proposal forms.
• Handling objections professionally and confidently.
• Working closely with Brokers to support new business opportunities.
• Maintaining accurate client records and notes of conversations.
• Managing your diary and working towards activity and sales targets.
• Taking part in training to develop your insurance knowledge and broking skills.

About you

You’ll be a confident communicator who enjoys speaking to people, is comfortable picking up the phone and wants to learn.

• A friendly, professional telephone manner.
• Motivation to achieve targets and earn performance-related bonuses.
• Resilience and a positive approach to handling objections.
• Good organisation, attention to detail and IT skills.
• A team-focused attitude and willingness to act on feedback.
• An interest in building a career in insurance.
• Experience in outbound sales, telesales, business development or a target-driven customer-facing role would be particularly relevant.

What’s on offer?

• £24,000 basic salary.
• Performance-related bonus of up to £400 per month — potential annual earnings of £28,800 if the maximum bonus is achieved each month.
• Progression towards an Insurance Broker role, typically over around 12 months.
• Training and practical experience alongside the broking team.
• Monday to Friday, 9am–5pm hours.
• 25 days’ paid annual leave plus bank holidays.
• Flexible working available after probation.
• Death in Service cover of three times your salary.
• Pension scheme.
• Employee Assistance Programme, including an online GP for you and your family.
• Free eye test and a contribution towards glasses.
• Cycle to Work scheme.
• Regular company parties — previous events have included boat parties and masquerade balls.
