Job description

Join a high-performing development team in the City, representing one of the biggest and most revered brokers in the global insurance market, targeting the mid-market and corporate space.

This team is delivering exceptional results. Individuals here are consistently earning between £150k and £250k annually - there's no cap on bonus, and no ceiling on what you can achieve.

The brand and market reputation opens doors and the levels of service, product and proposition will empower you to win.

If you're looking for the next step in your development career in the London insurance market, this is an opportunity to build something significant and be rewarded accordingly.

What's in it for you:

• Earning potential - base salary from £60,000-£100,000 with an open-ended bonus. Top earners are exceeding £250,000.
• No restrictions - on deal size or sector. You'll have the freedom to pursue the opportunities that fit your network, knowledge and experience, be that general commercial or specialty.
• Credibility - the business's market presence gets you through the door. Your expertise and that of your colleagues closes the deal.
• Support - expert broking, placement, marketing and client service teams around you and your clients.
• Career momentum - a step up for experienced new business developers who want to elevate their career and income.
• Real flexibility - based in the City, but with the autonomy to spend your time where you'll have the most impact.
• Long-term rewards - 10% pension, BUPA private medical and dental, share save scheme, critical illness cover, life assurance, sabbaticals and extra holiday linked to tenure.

Why this team?

• It's high performing - you'll join a team well ahead of target, with serious momentum.
• It's trusted - clients want to work with this firm. Brand strength and client outcomes drive inbound interest.
• It's ambitious - you'll be encouraged to think big, with no artificial limits on growth or income.
• It's modern - the function is sophisticated, data-driven, and built for high performance.
• It's strategic - deals are often long-term and relationship-based, not transactional.

Who this is for:

• You have a track record of business development in the insurance sector.
• You know how to build relationships, navigate complex sales, and win the right kind of clients.
• You want to be in a business that matches your drive and professionalism - where effort is rewarded, and where you're supported, not constrained.

If you're ready for a career move where your results will speak for themselves - and be rewarded accordingly - we'd like to hear from you.
