SalaryHaving recently moved to perhaps Manchester’s most prestigious 'smart office’, this global broker has made a real statement of intent - to be recognised as the 'go to’ employer for those seeking an exciting career within corporate insurance. It is a long-term adopter of flexible-working (doing so well before the pandemic), has a market-leading 'flexible-benefits’ package, and a reputation for offering a myriad of opportunities for progression. The cutting-edge technology, unrivalled social scene and roof-top gardens, really are just icing on the cake!
This broking giant has been established in Manchester for many years, and controls one of the North West’s largest portfolios of corporate clients - from blue chip PLC’s to some of the region’s best known privately-owned companies. Clients are from a range of industry sectors such as Food & Beverage, Manufacturing, Tech / Communications and Retail, and include both global and reverse-flow business. Clients range in size, with smaller accounts typically generating earnings of circa £25K, right up to those paying six-figure fees.
Due to the continued acquisition of quality accounts, the need has arisen for an additional Account Executive to join the team. As the branch portfolio has such a range of accounts, they welcome applications from seasoned veterans from competing globals, as well as less-experienced Account Executives who have not got masses of exposure to corporate risks. In either instance, you will be allocated a portfolio of accounts that reflect your skills, experiences and ambitions.
You must be inquisitive, and pride yourself on your ability to build a thorough understanding of your clients’ businesses and the issues that affect them. Whilst this is by no means a sales role, it is essential that you are comfortable identifying potential gaps in cover and cross / up-selling additional lines to mitigate these. It is also essential that you have excellent communication skills, and are able to effectively manage relationships with clients and stakeholders from all walks of life. You must also be able to produce a range of reports and associated documentation in an accurate and easy to understand fashion. As one would expect, you must have a sound understanding of all common commercial covers.
In addition to the perks mentioned above, you will receive a generous basic salary, support towards professional qualifications under the Chartered Insurance Institute and a very competitive pension arrangement.
