Sonic Summary

info
  • This is a career opportunity at a newly created insurance broking firm based in Bristol, with a salary range of £45,000 to £65,000, negotiable based on experience.
  • The firm is seeking an Account Executive or a skilled Account Handler with good cross-class commercial insurance knowledge and at least a few years of relevant experience.
  • The role involves strategic business development, managing a growing book of commercial clients, and converting leads from significant businesses in the South West and beyond.
  • Candidates should be comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders to build trust and secure deals, as the firm aims to create a legacy rather than scale for sale.
  • Additionally, there are opportunities for bonuses linked to performance and potential equity or long-term incentive plans for the right individual.

This progressive broking firm has an outstanding set of professional introducers and a marketing strategy that provides real, qualified, high quality leads... do you back yourself to convert?

This is a chance to be part of something special at the very start of the journey, joining a young business with serious goals - plus the infrastructure and senior team in place to achieve them.

It's a serious career opportunity... managing and developing clients today, with a path to senior roles as the business scales.

The proposition

  • A newly created insurance broking firm - based in Bristol and with plans to grow a national coverage.
  • Strategic acquisitions have created a foothold and a launch pad - there is a book of clients to manage on day one, but that is just the start; the introducer arrangements in place here will outstrip those at many established firms.
  • The business is looking to grow and need the right people to kick on - leadership here have a track record of building profitable firms - the difference this time is that the driver is creating a legacy rather than scaling to sell.

What's in it for you?

  • Aside from a strong base salary (probably between £45,000 - £65,000 but negotiable) you'll enjoy a bonus linked directly to your delivery.
  • There is also the prospect of equity/long term incentive plans for the right person.
  • Being part of a new business, where your voice is heard and your impact appreciated will be a massive plus to the right person.

The job

  • Strategic business development working with partners and introducers to convert leads - these will be significant businesses within the South West, Wales and further afield.
  • Managing a growing book of commercial clients - the nature of the acquisitions will mean these are stable clients, not under attack.

You

  • An Account Executive (or potentially an Account Handler with the skills to move into Exec'ing). You'll have good cross class commercial insurance knowledge.
  • You'll want an environment where you can make an impact... there's nowhere to hide in a smaller business, but that won't faze you because you'll see the career opportunities success will open up to you.
  • Able to sit in front of senior people within large prospects and gain their trust and attention to create buy in and win the deal.
