Job description

Life is about great experiences. Your insurance career should be too!

Are you a commercially minded insurance professional with a natural flair for building relationships and spotting opportunities? Do you enjoy being out in the market, meeting clients and making things happen?

The opportunity

This is an exciting opportunity to join a thriving and rapidly expanding Commercial Insurance team, where you'll have the autonomy, support and opportunity to make a real impact. Whether you're building relationships with local businesses, networking within the community or advising established organisations, you'll play a key role in driving growth and delivering exceptional client experiences.

As a Commercial Account Executive, you'll take an active role in developing and growing a portfolio of commercial clients, combining relationship management with a proactive approach to winning new business. Working closely with the Branch Manager and wider team, you'll build meaningful relationships with businesses of all sizes, from sole traders and small businesses through to senior decision-makers, directors and CEOs of larger organisations.

Your ability to understand each client's business, identify their insurance requirements and recommend appropriate solutions will be central to your success. You'll take a consultative approach, negotiating with insurers, identifying opportunities and delivering tailored advice that builds trust and long‑term loyalty.

What you will bring

We're looking for a confident, personable and commercially driven individual who enjoys building connections and turning opportunities into successful business relationships.

Ideally, you'll bring:

• Experience in winning new business and developing B2B client relationships within commercial insurance.
• A proactive and entrepreneurial approach to business development, with the confidence to generate your own opportunities.
• A genuine passion for networking, marketing, community engagement and building a strong local presence.
• Commercial awareness, tenacity and natural business curiosity.
• Excellent communication, negotiation and relationship‑building skills.
• A consultative approach, with the ability to ask the right questions, actively listen and understand client needs.
• The confidence to explore solutions and find a 'path to yes', always keeping the client's best interests in mind.
• A willingness to learn, develop and continually expand your insurance knowledge.

Whether you're an established Commercial Account Executive or an ambitious insurance professional ready to take the next step into a more business‑development‑focused position, this opportunity offers plenty of scope to grow.

What you will receive

Your contribution and commitment will be recognised through a competitive salary, an attractive benefits package and opportunities to develop your career.

Holiday and financial protection:

• 22 days' annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing with length of service.
• Life Assurance of up to 4x your annual salary.
• Income Protection covering up to five years in the event of illness or injury.
• Contributory pension scheme with 5% employer and 5% employee contributions.
• Access to a Healthcare Cash Plan.

Lifestyle and additional benefits:

• Discounts on gym memberships across the UK.
• Salary sacrifice schemes, including Travel Insurance, Cycle to Work, Car Leasing and Technology purchases.
• Access to discounted insurance policies.
• Hundreds of high‑street retailer discounts.

You'll also benefit from an environment that encourages professional development, supports independent thinking and gives you the freedom to make your mark.

This is a business built on the belief that its people are its greatest strength. Its employee‑ownership model encourages colleagues to think entrepreneurially, share ideas and take pride in the success they help create.

With a collaborative culture, an independent mindset and a genuine commitment to doing things differently, you'll be joining a business where ambition is encouraged, contributions are valued and opportunities are there for those who want to make the most of them.
