This is not a position where you will inherit a mature book and spend most of your time servicing existing clients. The focus is firmly on development, creating opportunities, building relationships and converting new business across the commercial insurance market.
You will have the backing of an established broking business, but the success of the role will come from your ability to create momentum in your own territory and develop a sustainable pipeline over time.
The opportunity
This role would suit someone who enjoys the commercial side of broking and wants to be rewarded for building something of their own.
You will be responsible for identifying and winning new commercial clients, developing relationships with business owners and senior decision-makers, and working closely with internal broking and technical teams to put the right solutions in place.
You will be starting with a relatively clean slate, so this is best suited to someone who is comfortable prospecting, networking, asking for referrals and generating opportunities rather than relying on a substantial inherited portfolio.
What the role looks like
Your responsibilities will include:
- Generating new commercial insurance opportunities through prospecting, networking, referrals and introducer relationships.
- Building and managing your own pipeline from initial contact through to conversion.
- Developing relationships with SME and mid-market businesses.
- Understanding client risks and working with internal broking teams to structure suitable insurance programmes.
- Presenting proposals and leading new business conversations with prospective clients.
- Building long-term client relationships after conversion and identifying further opportunities for growth.
- Developing a strong local presence across Surrey and the surrounding market.
- Maintaining accurate pipeline information and delivering against agreed new business targets.
Who this could suit
- You are likely to have a strong background in commercial insurance and could currently be working as an
