Account Executive / Account Director

Build your book. Own the value. Take your share.

Most Account Executive roles talk about "long-term opportunity". Very few actually deliver on it. This one does.

As well as a regular new business bonus, you'll receive a lump-sum pay-out based on the value of your book of clients.

We're working with a well-established, well-backed insurance brokerage that has entered a major growth phase. With national coverage, ambitious expansion plans and a clear strategy to scale substantially over the next five years, they're now looking to hire high-performing Account Executives / Account Directors across the UK.

The business


  • In business for over 50 years
  • Backed by major investment
  • Hundreds of millions in GWP and hundreds of employees nationwide
  • Acquisitive, fast-growing and continuing to invest heavily in people, technology and regional leadership
  • Offices across the UK with further consolidation into key regional hubs underway


Why this role stands out

This is a rare opportunity for income producers who want ownership-style upside without needing to set up on their own.

Long-Term Incentive Plan


  • A lump-sum payout every few years, linked directly to the value of your income book
  • Designed to reward sustained performance and client retention
  • Pay-outs have historically been strong and have recently been enhanced further
  • The structure increasingly reflects the true value of your book, rather than a token percentage


In short: build a quality book, and you share directly in its future value.

Package & earnings


  • Once threshold is cleared, earn a percentage of all new business written
  • Clear, transparent earnings structure with no unnecessary hurdles


Culture & working environment


  • Flexible, grown-up approach - input and outcomes matter more than desk time
  • Minimal bureaucracy and fast, sensible processes
  • Significant investment in technology and automation, removing admin-heavy tasks
  • Allows Account Executives and Account Directors to focus on clients, relationships and growth, not processing


Who this suits


  • Experienced Account Executives / Client Directors who produce income
  • Individuals with strong client relationships and a commercial mind-set
  • Those who want to build long-term value, not just chase short-term commission
  • People who want autonomy, support and a credible financial upside


If you've ever felt that the value of your book benefits everyone except you, this role offers a genuinely different proposition.
