We are currently recruiting for an independent, family-owned Insurance broker in Gloucester with impressive long-term growth plans, who are keen to expand their team with the appointment of a commercially astute Commercial Account Executive to join their Specialist Care team.
The business has grown significantly over the last few years through recruitment, acquisitions of other companies and most importantly due to more and more businesses and individuals entrusting them with their insurance requirements because of the level of service and expertise they offer.
They now employ over 25 people in their team of friendly and very knowledgeable insurance brokers in Gloucester. They invest heavily in the training and development of their team and encourage them to study for the Chartered Institute of Insurance qualifications. Despite the rapid growth of the business and the changes in the way insurance is transacted, the ethos of the business continues to be the same as it was when it was established.
They are looking for an exec with a good couple of years’ experience looking after care risks. You will be given some clients to look after (as the current execs here are pretty much stacked with work!), a mix of care home, supported living and domiciliary care risks. Premium levels tend to be £5k to £25k although they have some chunkier ones too!
You will be provided with some new business leads as well, but you will also be expected to develop your own too, through prospecting and networking.
They have access to the majority of care markets here plus their own exclusive scheme, which will help you to secure renewals and new business.
In order to be considered for this role, you will need to have at least five years commercial insurance experience in a customer facing role. Hold the Dip CII qualification or have your Cert CII and be willing to study towards your DIP. You will also need to be confident in dealing with all major classes of commercial insurance – property, business interruption, liabilities, motor, professional indemnity, etc. Experience of using Acturis would also be a bonus!
On offer is a basic salary of £48-55k depending on experience and track record, plus car allowance and annual bonus.
Office hours are Monday to Friday – 9.00am to 5pm. They are happy with hybrid working. Ideally, they like people to be in a minimum of 3 days a week, especially at the start, but can be flexible.
