Senior Account Broker / Broking Team Leader
Company: IPS Group Limited Salary: Not specified Hours: Full-time Location: Coventry, CV1 3LY Working pattern: On-site Job type: Permanent
Summary
A well-established, family-owned independent insurance broker is looking to appoint a Broking Team Leader to support the continued growth and development of its Coventry branch.
This opportunity would suit an experienced Commercial Account Broker, Senior Account Handler or existing Team Leader who enjoys working closely with clients and wants to play a key role in the leadership of a successful and growing business.
The Opportunity
This is not a pure management position.
The role combines ownership of a quality commercial client portfolio with responsibility for supporting and developing the broking team.
You'll become a key member of the branch leadership structure, working closely with the Branch Manager and helping drive performance, service standards and team development.
The majority of your time will remain client-focused, managing and servicing a varied commercial portfolio, whilst also mentoring colleagues and assisting with the day-to-day running of the broking function.
The Role
- Manage a portfolio of commercial clients from renewal through to ongoing servicing.
- Build and maintain strong client relationships.
- Support Account Executives on larger and more complex accounts.
- Attend client meetings and insurance surveys where required.
- Provide technical support and guidance to colleagues.
- Assist with KPI monitoring, CPD tracking and team development.
- Conduct regular team meetings and support branch objectives.
- Help maintain the high servicing standards the business is known for.
- Act as a deputy to the Branch Manager and become a key part of the leadership team.
About You
- Strong commercial insurance experience gained within an insurance broker.
- Experience as a Senior Account Handler, Account Broker, Team Leader or similar role.
- Sound technical knowledge across a broad range of commercial risks.
- Excellent organisational and relationship-building skills.
- The confidence to mentor, support and challenge colleagues where appropriate.
- A genuine interest in leadership and developing people.
Previous management experience would be beneficial but is not essential. We are equally interested in individuals looking to take their first step into a leadership role.
The Business
This is one of the UK's largest independently owned insurance brokers, with a reputation for exceptional client retention, long-term staff retention and a genuine family-oriented culture.
The business has grown significantly in recent years whilst maintaining the values and flexibility often lost within larger corporate brokers.
Employees are trusted, supported and encouraged to build long-term careers, creating a stable and collaborative working environment.
Why Consider This Opportunity?
- Genuine progression opportunities.
- Leadership responsibilities without losing client ownership.
- Varied and interesting commercial portfolio.
- Supportive and collaborative culture.
- Highly successful and stable business.
- Long-standing client relationships.
- Opportunity to become a key figure within the branch.
This represents an excellent opportunity for an experienced commercial insurance professional looking to take the next step in their career within a highly respected independent brokerage.
