If you are an Account Director in Manchester who values autonomy, technical credibility and serious clients, this will be worth your time.

This Account Director role sits within a well established global insurance broker, though the appointment is confidential. The Manchester office handles significant corporate and large commercial insurance programmes and has a strong reputation in the regional insurance market.

You will inherit an established portfolio of sizeable clients while being encouraged to develop further growth across Manchester and the wider North West. The expectation is strategic development and strong retention, not aggressive short term production.

As an Account Director in Manchester, you will have access to specialist teams, strong insurer relationships and the kind of market leverage that supports proper advisory work in insurance. This is not transactional. It is about long term partnerships and informed programme design.

The role operates on a hybrid basis. You will be trusted to manage your diary between home, office and client meetings across Manchester and surrounding areas.

What you will be doing:

• Managing and developing a portfolio of corporate and large commercial insurance clients
• Leading renewal strategy and overseeing insurer negotiations
• Advising clients on programme structure, risk and long term insurance planning
• Identifying opportunities to strengthen and expand existing relationships
• Working closely with broking, claims and specialist teams to deliver coordinated service
• Contributing to the ongoing growth of the Manchester office
• This Account Director position requires judgement. You will be visible with clients and internally, helping shape strategy within the Manchester insurance team.

What you will bring:

• Experience as an Account Director, Client Director or Senior Account Executive within commercial or corporate insurance
• A proven track record of retaining and growing insurance income
• Strong technical knowledge across core commercial classes
• Confidence operating with finance directors, risk managers and business owners
• A measured, relationship led approach to business development
• The right Account Director in Manchester is likely well regarded where they are. You may have built long tenure within the insurance market and are selective about your next step. That mindset is respected.
• What differentiates this opportunity is platform and profile. As an Account Director in Manchester, you will operate within a respected insurance brand while retaining the flexibility and influence experienced professionals expect.

What is on offer:

• Salary between £60,000 and £75,000 depending on experience
• Performance related bonus
• Hybrid working model in Manchester
• Comprehensive benefits package
• Clear progression within a strong Manchester insurance team

If you are an Account Director in Manchester who would consider a confidential discussion about your longer term direction in insurance, I am happy to speak discreetly.
