SalaryWith perks including occasional surfing and paddle boarding days, 30 days’ holiday as standard, and an annual trip to Ibiza, then it’s clear that this broker takes employee engagement very seriously. Equally impressive is the growth it has delivered since being established a little over 2 years ago. Admittedly, the firm is backed by one of the biggest names in insurance, but what it has achieved since its inception is nothing short of remarkable.
Indeed, it is due to the continued acquisition of quality accounts that the firm seeks to appoint an additional Account Handler to its friendly and supportive Teesside operation. This is a fast-paced team that prides itself on delivering a superb level of client service.
Here, you will be responsible for helping 4 Account Executives / Directors in servicing an allocation of clients generating circa £300K commission / fee income. Clients will be from a wide range of industry sectors (both blue and white collar), such as manufacturing, property owners and technology. Clients’ premiums can range from a couple of thousand pounds, right up into the multiple six-figures.
You will be responsible for scrutinising clients’ insurance programmes and ensuring that they are sufficiently robust. Where gaps in cover exist, you will suggest innovative solutions to mitigate these. You will be responsible for mid-term amendments and preparing renewals, as well as negotiating with insurers to obtain your clients comprehensive cover at a competitive premium. You will also prepare a variety of reports and documentation.
It is essential that you have extensive commercial insurance experience (gained in either broking or underwriting) together with a knowledge of a variety of commercial covers. You should also have excellent communication skills, and the ability to get on with stakeholders from all walks of life. You’ll be well-organised, meticulous in your approach and have excellent task-management skills.
In addition to the fantastic working environment and well above average holiday allowance mentioned above, you will receive a generous (and entirely negotiable) basic salary and an impressive array of company benefits. For the ambitious, this brokerage is clearly in an impressive growth trajectory so there will be a myriad of opportunities for progression in the coming years.
