Commercial Account Executive

Location: Poole (Onsite) Salary: £28,000 £45,000 (Guaranteed Base) + 10% Combined Pension

Are you a Commercial Insurance professional looking for a high-value role without the pressure of "cold-call" sales targets?

Cowell Recruitment is proud to represent a highly stable, independent brokerage in Poole. Unlike many firms that offer low bases and volatile commissions, our client believes in rewarding expertise with a strong, guaranteed salary and a focus on quality over quantity.

This role is perfect for a technical expert who takes pride in building long-term client legacies rather than just "closing deals."

Why This Role is Different:

• Guaranteed Earnings: A highly competitive base salary up to £45k, providing financial security regardless of market fluctuations.

• Relationship-First: Focus on managing and growing an existing book of business through expert advice and technical precision.

• Full Autonomy: Manage your own diary and client meetings within a supportive, onsite team environment.

• Professional Investment: Fully funded CII Qualifications (Cert/Dip/ACII) and a clear roadmap for internal promotion.

Your Role & Impact:

• Strategic Management: Owning a diverse portfolio of commercial clients, acting as their primary technical advisor.

• Consultative Growth: Identifying cross-selling and up-selling opportunities within your book to ensure clients are fully protected.

• Underwriter Negotiation: Leveraging your relationships with insurers to secure the best terms and premiums for your clients.

• Retention Excellence: Driving high renewal rates through face-to-face reviews and a "client-first" mindset.

Who Are We Looking For?

• The Specialist: Proven experience in B2B or Commercial Insurance. (We also welcome Personal Lines professionals with 2+ years of experience looking to move into Commercial).

• The Professional: Someone who values accuracy, compliance (FCA), and high-level client service.

• The Local Expert: You are based in or near Poole and enjoy the collaboration of an onsite office culture.

• The Academic: GCSE Grade C/4 in Maths & English is required; CII qualifications are a major plus.

The "Total Reward" Package:

• Security: 4x Life Assurance & 5-year Income Protection coverage.

• Wealth: 10% Combined Pension (Rising to 5% Employer / 5% Employee in April 2025).

• Health: Healthcare Cash Plan, Private Medical/Dental discounts, and 24/7 EAP support.

• Lifestyle: Cycle to Work, Car Leasing (Salary Sacrifice), Tech schemes, and Retail discounts.

• Leave: 22 days + Bank Holidays (increasing with service) and enhanced Parental Leave.
