Job Description

If you are a Senior Account Executive who has built a book properly, retained it properly and grown it without burning bridges, this will resonate.

This is not a vanity title. And it is not a role where you are expected to survive purely on inherited crumbs.

This confidential brokerage in Berkshire has a strong regional footprint, serious insurer relationships and a leadership team who understand that good Executives need autonomy, support and time to build quality income.

They are looking for an experienced commercial producer who knows how to open doors, develop trusted adviser status and retain clients for the long term.

You will not be forced into a rigid sales script. You will not be micromanaged on every call. You will be treated like an adult who understands how this market works.

What you will be doing

  • Developing and converting new commercial business opportunities across Berkshire and surrounding areas
  • Building a sustainable portfolio of SME and mid market clients
  • Managing and retaining your own book of business
  • Providing strategic advice on programme structure, cover and risk management
  • Working closely with experienced Account Handlers to deliver high service standards
  • Maintaining strong relationships with key insurers in the regional and London markets
  • This is about building income that lasts, not chasing short term spikes.

What they are looking for

  • Proven track record as a Commercial Account Executive in the UK market
  • Demonstrable new business generation and client retention success
  • Strong technical knowledge across core commercial classes
  • Ability to advise business owners and directors with credibility
  • Established local network or clear strategy for developing one
  • Professional approach with long term relationship focus

  • They are not looking for someone who jumps every two years. They want a steady, credible Executive who understands that reputation in this market is everything.
  • You may already have a book. You may be frustrated by internal politics, unrealistic growth targets or a lack of support once you have won the business. This move is about strengthening your platform, not starting again from scratch.

What you will get

  • Salary up to £75,000 depending on experience
  • Competitive bonus structure linked to sustainable income
  • Strong broking and technical support
  • Access to wide insurer markets
  • Autonomy to manage your portfolio properly
  • Hybrid working flexibility
  • Long term career stability within an established business

If you have built your career carefully and want a platform that matches your standards, this is worth a confidential conversation.

If you would like to explore this properly and in confidence, get in touch.
