This is ideal if you’re particularly strong in the commercial combined/package class of business, have an interest in boats and all things marine, plus are a service-oriented Commercial Account Executive with a track record of developing £25k - £30k of new business per year.

Our client is a well-established, independent Chartered Insurance Broker with a strong reputation across the commercial insurance market. With more than 50 years' experience and offices across the South West and London, they are recognised for delivering specialist, relationship-led advice to a diverse client base. The business has developed a particularly strong reputation within niche and specialist sectors including marine, property, education, technology and private client insurance, combining technical expertise with a genuinely client-focused approach.

What's on offer? A salary in the £50k - £70k range is on offer including bonus structure to incentivise retention, growth and new business. The business offers a highly supportive and collaborative environment with a strong commitment to employee development, professional qualifications and long-term career progression.

A bit about you: You’ll bring a track record being a Commercial Account Executive at an Insurance Broker. You’ll ideally have dealt with the odd marine client, but as long as you have a strong commercial combined/package insurance background with an interest in specialising in marine, you will be considered. You pride yourself on your retention rate and typically renew 95% or more of your clients year on year. Whilst there is a good sized, existing book to inherit, you will be expected to grow your account organically and will need to show a track record of developing at least £25k - £30k of new business per year. You can be based anywhere across the country, but there is preference to hire someone in the South West, Wales, South East or Midlands.
