- Support Account Executives with larger, more complex and technical cases.

- Build strong relationships with clients, insurers and key stakeholders.

- Negotiate with insurers to secure the best outcomes for clients.

- Act as a technical referral point for colleagues across the team.

- Share knowledge, mentor less experienced team members and help develop technical capability within the branch.

- Maintain the high levels of service and client retention the business is known for.

About You

- Strong commercial insurance experience gained within an insurance brokerage.

- Previous experience as a Senior Account Handler, Commercial Broker or Account Broker.

- Good technical knowledge across a broad range of commercial insurance products.

- Confidence handling larger and more complex client requirements.

- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.

- A collaborative approach and willingness to support colleagues.

What's on Offer?

- Senior role within a highly respected independent broker.

- A quality commercial portfolio with a broad range of clients and risks.

- The chance to become a trusted senior figure within the branch.

- Supportive, collaborative and long-established team environment.

- Genuine long-term career prospects within a stable and growing business.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced commercial insurance professional looking for a senior broking position where they can continue to work closely with clients while using their experience to help support and strengthen the wider team.
