Job description

Are you an experienced Commercial Insurance Account Handler who feels ready for a more challenging and rewarding role?

Our client is a highly reputable, well-established insurance intermediary with a strong market presence and a long-standing heritage in the insurance sector. Operating as part of a larger group with significant national and international reach, the business combines the stability of an established organisation with the collaborative culture of a close-knit, high-performing team.

They are now seeking an experienced Commercial Account Handler to take ownership of a diverse commercial book.

  • Handling mid to more technically complex commercial risks across a range of products
  • Supporting Account Executives with renewals, MTAs, and new business broking

  • Liaising with insurers to negotiate terms, cover, and premiums
  • Ensuring compliance, accuracy, and best practice across all documentation and processes
About You
  • Proven experience in commercial insurance broking or account handling
  • Exposure to a broad range of commercial products and risk types
  • Strong knowledge of the UK insurance market and insurer appetite
  • A desire to work with more complex cases rather than volume-driven policies
  • Excellent communication and relationship management skills
  • A professional, client-focused approach with strong attention to detail
  • Ambition, tenacity, and a genuine interest in developing your technical capability
What's on Offer
  • Salary circa £50,000, depending on experience
  • Support and funding for professional insurance qualifications
  • Pension and associated benefits
  • A collaborative team environment with clear opportunities for development
  • Exposure to more complex and interesting commercial risks
