Full autonomy. Inherited book. Career-defining opportunity.

Are you an experienced Commercial Account Executive ready to take the lead and shape the future of a brokerage? Do you want to be more than “just another AE” but a leader, mentor, and key player in the business?

We're working with a leading independent brokerage (part of a global organisation) looking for a trusted, experienced Account Executive to inherit a strong, loyal commercial book worth £250,000–£300,000 in income. There’s real opportunity here, not only to run and grow the book, but to build a team around you and step into a true leadership position.

Responsibilities:

• Taking ownership of an established, high-value commercial book (£200k–£300k income).
• Developing trusted relationships with key clients and insurers.
• Delivering exceptional service, retention, and growth.
• Acting as a commercial leader within the business.
• Playing a central role in building and leading a team of Account Handlers and junior AEs.
• Balancing office presence, on-the-road client meetings, and occasional WFH.
• Working closely with senior leadership to shape future strategy.

What We’re Looking For

• A solid, experienced Account Executive with a strong track record in mid-to-corporate commercial broking.
• Someone ready to step into a leadership role – not just in title but in action.
• A natural relationship-builder who can inspire trust – both internally and with clients.
• Someone who wants full freedom to build something of their own.

The Offer

• £50,000 -£90,000+ salary (negotiable) + car allowance + commission scheme.
• A £250k+ book to inherit and grow.
• Full autonomy to shape your team, your approach, and your future.
• Join a supportive 42-person office with a family-run feel – but backed by global resources.
• Office-based with freedom to be on the road – we value presence and flexibility.

This is not just a job. It’s a succession opportunity – a rare opening to become part of the long-term future of a well-respected brokerage.

If you’re ready to step up, lead, and be trusted with something meaningful – let’s talk.
