Contact Strategy Development — Create tailored outreach plans for each prospect, including call cadence, email touchpoints, and marketing follow‑ups.
Telephone Prospecting — Execute structured outbound calling to introduce the agency, identify renewal dates, gather key business information, and establish early rapport.
Email & Marketing Follow‑Up — Send professional follow‑up emails, nurture prospects over time, and maintain consistent contact to keep the agency front‑of‑mind.
Pipeline Management — Keep accurate, timely records of all interactions, renewal dates, and next steps to ensure seamless handover to the Agent.
Agent Appointment Booking — Arrange high‑quality appointments for the Agent once interest is established, ensuring the relationship is already warm and informed.
Collaboration — Work closely with the Agent and wider team to refine targeting, share insights, and support local marketing initiatives.

Skills & Experience

Communication Skills — Confident, clear, and personable telephone manner with the ability to build rapport quickly.
Research Ability — Strong online research skills and the ability to identify relevant business information efficiently.
Organisation — Excellent time management, pipeline tracking, and follow‑up discipline.
Commercial Awareness — Understanding of business structures, sectors, and insurance needs (training provided).
Resilience — Comfortable with outbound calling, handling objections, and maintaining momentum.
CRM Competence — Ability to update and manage prospect data accurately.

What Success Looks Like

A healthy, well‑researched pipeline of commercial prospects.
Consistent identification of renewal dates and key decision‑makers.
High‑quality appointments booked for the Agent.
Strong early‑stage relationships that make the Agent’s visit warm and productive.
Increased conversion rates and long‑term client growth for the agency.

Why This Role Matters
