Development Executive (Corporate Insurance Broker) - Belfast

Job Type: Permanent Sector: General Insurance Specialism: Account Executive, Broker, Commercial, Sales & Business Development, Senior Appointments Location: Ireland Town/City: Belfast Salary range: Other Salary Description: Attractive salary plus bonus and benefits Posted: 22-Oct-26 Start Date: ASAP

We are delighted to be partnering with this world-leading insurance broking organisation that is seeking a talented Development Executive to join its highly successful Belfast office.

This is a rare opportunity for an ambitious insurance sales professional to join one of the biggest names in the global insurance market, where you'll benefit from exceptional support in generating new business, whilst developing the skills and experience required to progress into a Sales Director position in the future.

One of the biggest attractions of this role is the considerable infrastructure the company has in place to support its business development activities. Unlike many positions where you're expected to generate every opportunity through cold calling, this broker has established relationships with professional introducers, strategic affiliations with major high street banks, a dedicated telesales team and an extensive database of prospective clients. Add to this the strength of a globally recognised brand that opens doors in the corporate world, and you'll have a fantastic platform from which to build your own portfolio.

As Development Executive, you'll be responsible for developing new business relationships and winning corporate accounts. Working closely with experienced colleagues and specialist teams, you'll identify opportunities, meet prospective clients, understand their insurance requirements and develop tailored solutions. Whilst you'll need to be a proactive and accomplished business developer, you'll have considerable support to help you concentrate on what you do best – meeting clients and winning business.

Another major attraction is the calibre and diversity of clients you'll have the opportunity to work with. These include businesses operating within sectors such as technology, manufacturing, construction, waste management, wholesaling, charities and property ownership, amongst many others. You'll gain exposure to large, complex and prestigious corporate risks that are rarely encountered within many commercial broking environments in the local market, whilst benefiting from the expertise of specialist colleagues across the organisation.

Importantly, this broker is particularly keen to recruit someone with ambitions to progress into a Sales Director role. You'll have the opportunity to learn from experienced senior colleagues, develop your knowledge of larger corporate accounts and build the commercial and leadership skills required to take the next step in your career.

That's the message from the Head of the Belfast office, and it sums up the company's approach to its people. This is an organisation that genuinely invests in long-term careers, providing extensive internal and external training, professional development and a wealth of opportunities for progression.

Just as importantly, you'll be joining a stable, friendly and collaborative office where there's a genuine team-player ethos. Despite the company's global standing, the Belfast team prides itself on its supportive atmosphere, with colleagues working closely together and sharing in each other's successes.

We're keen to hear from commercially minded insurance professionals with a successful track record of developing new business within the commercial broking market. You'll have strong relationship-building skills, the confidence to engage with senior decision-makers and a genuine enthusiasm for winning business. Previous experience of larger corporate accounts isn't essential, making this an ideal opportunity for an ambitious Commercial Account Executive or Development Executive looking to take the next step.

You'll be rewarded with an attractive basic salary, negotiable depending on experience, together with a bonus scheme and excellent corporate benefits.
