I'm working with one of the UK's largest independent insurance brokers to find a Commercial Account Executive to join their team. My client employs across offices throughout the UK, and has built its reputation on genuine, long-term client relationships rather than a hard sell - in fact, the majority of their new business comes through referrals, which speaks volumes about how their clients feel about the service they receive.

This is a business my client is genuinely proud of: an award-winning, close-knit team that combines deep technical expertise with a friendly, down-to-earth way of working. Whether in commercial lines, transport and logistics, or one of their other specialisms, you'd be joining a company where people stick around, knowledge is shared generously, and colleagues genuinely look out for one another.

My client also believes in trusting people to get on with the job. Their hybrid working culture is relaxed and outcome-focused you'll have the flexibility to structure your week in a way that works for you and your clients, without anyone watching the clock.

The Role:

My client is looking for a Commercial Account Executive to manage and grow a portfolio of commercial insurance clients, building relationships that go well beyond the annual renewal. You'll work closely with their in-house Risk Management and Claims teams, giving you the backing to offer clients a genuinely complete service rather than just a quote.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Managing a portfolio of commercial clients, acting as their trusted point of contact
  • Identifying and developing new business opportunities alongside existing account growth
  • Working with insurers to negotiate terms and secure the right cover for each client's circumstances
  • Collaborating with the Risk Management and Claims teams to deliver a joined-up service
  • Keeping on top of market developments and regulatory requirements across your client base

What My Client Is Looking For

  • Experience in commercial insurance broking or account management (Cert CII or working towards it preferred)
  • A relationship-first approach - you listen first, sell second
  • Strong organisational skills and comfort managing a varied portfolio
  • A collaborative mindset; this is a team that wins together, not as individuals
  • Self-motivated and comfortable working autonomously in a hybrid setup

What's On Offer

  • Salary up to Β£75,000 (dependent on experience), plus bonus
  • Enhanced pension contributions
  • Enhanced holiday allowance
  • A relaxed, trust-based hybrid working culture
  • Structured career development and support toward professional qualifications
  • The stability of an established, award-winning business with the agility of an independent broker
