Commercial Insurance Broker

• The role of a Insurance Broker is great next step for any Senior Account Handler looking to become an Account Executive, (who doesn’t fancy cold calling, cold outreach and pipeline building…)
• If you rate your ability to talk to clients, solve their insurance and risk challenges, in a fast moving, growth focussed business, this role is worth exploring.
• You’ll be working with some of the UK’s most dynamic businesses, start-ups, scale-ups, (nothing slow), no renewal meetings where “nothing has changed”…
• This Broking business is similar to the clients it serves, fast paced, innovative, growing, dynamic, flexible.

Role Description

This is an exciting chance to work with some of the UK’s most innovative businesses and join a growing broking team.  The type of business you’ll be proud to tell your friends and family about.

The Broker role embodies a client-first ethos. Unlike traditional models with multiple handovers, our client believe clients are best served by a single, dedicated contact—our Brokers.

As a Broker, you’ll handle client inquiries from the initial prospect stage, manage policy placement, and continue servicing clients through quarterly reviews, adjustments, and renewals.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide Technical Expertise: Ask relevant questions to understand client needs and communicate effectively.

• Design Bespoke Insurance Programs: Tailor policies to clients' specific risk profiles and business goals.
• Structure Global Policies: Ensure compliance with international regulations and comprehensive coverage.
• Handle Complex Programs: Manage intricate insurance needs, including London Market programs.
• Upsell and Cross-Sell: Identify additional opportunities to enhance client coverage.
• Showcase Sector Expertise: Stay informed on market trends, legislation, and industry best practices.
• Advise on Risk Mitigation: Offer strategic guidance beyond insurance to manage overall risk.
• Maintain Service Standards: Deliver exceptional client service, addressing issues promptly.

Experience:

• At least 3 years of commercial insurance broking experience, preferably in a Senior Handler/Advisor or Account Executive role.
• Expertise in key insurances such as Public/Products & Employers Liability, Material Damage, Business Interruption, Cyber, and Professional Indemnity.
• Strong customer service focus and ability to tailor explanations to clients new to insurance.
• Confident in both virtual and in-person client meetings.
• Skilled negotiator with a proactive approach to problem-solving.
• Experienced in working with diverse client bases and insurance needs.
• Cert CII qualification (minimum).
• Acturis experience is a plus.
