About Concept Claim Solutions
Concept Claim Solutions is the UK's leading loss assessing business and proud winner of Loss Assessor of the Year 2026. We help homeowners and businesses navigate complex property insurance claims following escape of water, fire, flood and storm damage, providing expert support when they need it most.
As our business continues to grow, we're expanding our nationwide referral partner network and are looking for an ambitious Business Development Executive to become part of our friendly and supportive team.
This is an opportunity to join a successful, growing company where you'll receive genuine investment in your development, work alongside experienced professionals and build a long-term career.
We Recruit for Passion, Drive and Potential
Whilst experience in sales or business development is an advantage, it isn't the most important thing to us.
We believe skills can be taught. Passion, ambition, resilience and a positive attitude are much harder to find.
We're looking for someone who enjoys speaking with people, builds relationships naturally and isn't afraid to start conversations. Someone who is curious, proactive, enjoys achieving goals and genuinely wants to develop both personally and professionally.
Whether you've worked in retail, hospitality, recruitment, customer service, estate agency, administration or another people-focused environment, your transferable skills could make you exactly who we're looking for.
About the Role
This is far more than a traditional sales role.
No two days are the same. One day you'll be researching new opportunities; the next, you'll be speaking with business owners, supporting marketing campaigns, arranging meetings, or developing relationships with existing referral partners.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll be responsible for:
- Researching and identifying new referral partners across the UK.
- Building targeted prospect databases and maintaining accurate CRM records.
- Planning and delivering email, WhatsApp Business and social media awareness campaigns.
- Contacting prospective referral partners by telephone and introducing our services.
- Booking appointments and arranging meetings with prospective partners.
- Converting opportunities into active referral partnerships.
- Building long-term relationships with existing referral partners.
- Supporting partners throughout their onboarding journey.
- Managing an active sales pipeline and achieving agreed KPIs.
- Producing accurate CRM records and activity updates.
- Working collaboratively with our management and marketing teams to support continued business growth.
Who We're Looking For
You'll be someone who:
- Loves speaking with people and building relationships.
- Has a positive attitude and enjoys taking on new challenges.
- Is confident, enthusiastic and approachable.
- Communicates professionally and builds rapport easily.
- Is organised and manages their time effectively.
- Takes ownership of their work.
- Enjoys working towards goals and celebrating success.
- Is eager to learn, develop new skills and continuously improve.
Experience in sales, business development, recruitment, account management or customer-facing roles would be beneficial, but it isn't essential.
If you have the drive, determination and willingness to learn, we'll help you build the rest.
Training & Career Development
From day one, you'll receive structured training and ongoing coaching from experienced colleagues.
We'll help you develop:
- Business development and relationship-building skills.
- Commercial awareness.
- Lead generation and marketing techniques.
- CRM systems and sales processes.
- Communication and negotiation skills.
- Industry knowledge and product expertise.
What You'll Receive
In return, we offer:
- Competitive salary.
- Performance bonus.
- Full training and ongoing support.
- Career progression opportunities.
- A friendly and ambitious team.
- The chance to make a real impact within a growing national business.
