Commercial Account Executive - North East

Posted: 22 June 2023

Job description

Our client is a very well respected and highly professional commercial insurance brokerage based in the Leeds area. They are dynamic and forward thinking, but not aggressive and prefer to nurture long-term business relationships rather than just aim for quick wins. They have a significant number of clients based in the North East and as such would be a keen to appoint a representative in that area.

They have a great office set up, a fantastic team of professionals and are well known for having a very low staff turnover. This is due the branch director creating an enjoyable and grown up working environment with a big emphasis on work / life balance. This remote based role will align closely with the team in Leeds, visiting the office once or twice a month for meetings.

This is a dual role, partly taking on some existing commercial clients as well as developing the portfolio through new business generation. They have a great set-up with many distribution channels providing a flow of consistently good quality and qualified leads (many attached to trade associations), therefore, are not looking for an overzealous sales person, preferring to attract a “consultative” individual with a focus on quality.

Ideal applicants will have previous client facing account executive experience, both client servicing and new business generation, a good all round knowledge of most classes of commercial insurance and will be looking to work for a quality business with plenty of career progression towards a more senior role very likely. We would also welcome applications from experienced commercial brokers / handler, looking to step up into a client facing role.

This role comes with an excellent basic salary, car allowance, bonus and a full and comprehensive benefits package.
