Job description

Are you a commercial insurance professional who enjoys building relationships with clients but hasn’t quite had the opportunity to fully step into an Account Executive position?

This could be an excellent opportunity for a strong Account Handler, Development Executive or Desk-Based Executive to move into a role where you’ll have genuine client ownership whilst still benefiting from the support and infrastructure of an established broking team.

You’ll inherit a portfolio of predominantly SME and mid-market clients, with premium spends often around the £10,+ mark, whilst also gaining exposure to larger and more complex risks as your confidence and experience develop.

• Wants to become more client facing.
• Is ambitious and keen to progress into handling larger accounts over time.
