Commercial Account Executive
Based in Leeds
Salary £50K - £75K
An opportunity for an experienced Commercial Account Executive to join an ambitious, independent brokerage where your experience, relationships and ability to generate income are genuinely valued.
We are working with an established and highly regarded independent insurance brokerage that has continued to grow while retaining the culture and personal approach you would expect from an independent business.
They are now looking to strengthen their Leeds team with an experienced Commercial Account Executive who can take ownership of a portfolio, build meaningful client relationships and, importantly, demonstrate a strong track record of income production and book management.
This is not an opportunity aimed at someone looking to take their first step into an Account Executive position. The business is looking for someone who has proven themselves in a client-facing, commercially driven broking environment and understands what it takes to build, retain and grow a profitable book.
The Package
- £50K - £75K depending on experience.
- Bonus / incentive structure.
- Independent ownership and entrepreneurial culture.
- Heavy Hybrid
- Enhanced pension
- Enhanced holiday
- Genuine opportunity to grow your portfolio and income.
The Role
You will take responsibility for building a portfolio of commercial clients, acting as a trusted adviser and managing relationships throughout the insurance cycle.
Alongside servicing and retaining your existing book, there will be a clear expectation that you will continue to generate income and develop new opportunities.
The successful individual will have the freedom to use their experience, market knowledge and existing relationships to identify opportunities and grow their portfolio, whilst having the support of experienced technical and broking teams around them.
What We're Looking For
This role is suited to an established Commercial Account Executive who can demonstrate:
- A strong track record within commercial insurance broking.
- Proven income production, with a clear history of generating and growing revenue.
- Experience managing and retaining a sizeable commercial book.
- A strong understanding of commercial insurance and the ability to advise clients at a senior level.
- A history of developing existing relationships and identifying new business opportunities.
- Strong client retention and relationship management skills.
- The commercial awareness to understand both the client's requirements and the profitability of the account.
- The confidence and credibility to deal with business owners, directors and senior decision-makers.
- A self-sufficient and entrepreneurial approach to managing your portfolio.
Why This Business?
For an experienced professional, the attraction is the balance between independence and infrastructure.
You'll be joining an established brokerage with strong market relationships, specialist expertise and significant resources behind it, but without the layers of bureaucracy that can come with some of the larger corporate brokers.
The culture is entrepreneurial and performance-focused, with experienced Account Executives given the autonomy to manage their relationships and develop their own business.
You'll also have access to experienced internal teams across areas such as broking, claims and risk, allowing you to concentrate on what you do best managing relationships, advising clients and producing income.
The Leeds office is already well established but continues to grow, providing the opportunity to join at an exciting stage and play a meaningful role in its continued development.
Interested?
If you're an experienced Commercial Account Executive who can demonstrate a strong history of income production, successful book management and client retention, this could be an excellent opportunity to take the next step and we would love to hear from you.
