In this role you will be supporting the Account Executives on the larger key clients, predominantly focusing on existing cases, making amendments and policy adjustments, marketing and negotiating renewals etc. This will involve speaking to clients and insurers on a daily basis and using Acturis system to keep records up to date.

You will also be a focal point where new cases and new business opportunities are concerned, preparing submissions and negotiating with insurers in order to obtain the best possible deal to assist the Account Executives in converting.
