Description

Inherit a quality book. Build new business. Be backed by a national brand.


If you're a Commercial Account Executive who enjoys the balance of looking after established clients while still having the freedom to win and develop new business, this could be the ideal next step.

This is an opportunity to join a well-respected national broker from their West Sussex branch, inheriting a warm, well-maintained book of commercial clients while being fully supported to grow your own pipeline.



The Role


You'll take ownership of an existing portfolio of SME and mid-market commercial clients, acting as their trusted insurance adviser while identifying opportunities to expand relationships and generate new business.

Backed by strong internal teams, recognised insurer relationships, and a reputable brand, you'll have the platform to focus on what you do best - advising, retaining, and growing clients.



Key Responsibilities




  • Manage and develop an inherited portfolio of commercial insurance clients


  • Deliver renewals, mid-term adjustments, and day-to-day client servicing


  • Identify cross-sell and upsell opportunities within the existing book


  • Proactively generate new business through networking, referrals, and leads


  • Work closely with internal broking and support teams to deliver a seamless service


  • Build long-term, trusted relationships with clients and insurers alike




About You




  • Experience as a Commercial Account Executive / client-facing commercial insurance role


  • Strong knowledge of commercial insurance products and the UK market


  • Confident managing renewals and advising clients independently


  • Commercially minded, with a genuine interest in business development


  • ACII qualified or working towards (advantageous, not essential)




What's On Offer




  • £70,000 - £80,000 basic salary


  • Bonus structure linked to new business and portfolio growth


  • Car allowance


  • Inherited book of commercial clients from day one


  • The backing, stability, and insurer access of a national brokerage


  • Supportive West Sussex branch environment


  • Hybrid working and a professional, adult working culture




If you're looking for a role that offers immediate responsibility, strong earning potential, and long-term career progression, this is well worth a conversation.
