Account Executive

Account Executive - Commercial Insurance

Derby | Hybrid working

We're looking for an Account Executive to join our commercial broking team in Derby. This is a great opportunity to inherit an established book of clients while driving new business growth in a supportive, specialist environment.

We're open to different levels of experience, whether you're an established Account Executive or ready to step up from a Handler/Broking role, we want to hear from you.

What you'll be doing:

• Manage and develop an inherited portfolio of commercial clients

• Build strong, long-term relationships through regular contact, review meetings and proactive advice

• Work closely with our broking and handling team to deliver high-quality service and technically sound insurance solutions

• Drive new business, identify opportunities within your network and the local market, follow up on leads and support wider growth initiatives

• Place and negotiate commercial insurance programmes, liaising with key insurer partners to secure the right cover and terms for clients

About You
We're flexible on exact level, but you'll bring:

• Experience in commercial insurance (broker or insurer side), ideally with exposure to a mix of sectors such as construction, property owners and landlords, and manufacturing and motor trade

• Confidence engaging with clients, building rapport and explaining insurance clearly and professionally

• Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage a varied workload and take ownership of your accounts

• A proactive, commercial mindset, comfortable with new business and growth expectations as part of the role

• Progress towards professional qualifications (e.g. CII) is an advantage, though not essential

What We Offer

• A warm book of clients to inherit, with scope to grow and shape your own portfolio

• Supportive leadership and a collaborative local team

• Development opportunities for those looking to progress their technical and client-facing skills

• Competitive salary and benefits, aligned to your experience and level
