Commercial Insurance Account Executive
Yorkshire | £40,000 - £65,000 + Growth-Based Bonus | Flexibility and Autonomy
Are you an experienced Commercial Account Executive looking for the freedom to build a profitable book without being tied down by layers of corporate red tape?
CKB Recruitment is delighted to be working with a fast-growing and highly ambitious independent insurance broking group that is looking to add a Commercial Account Executive to its expanding team.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a genuinely entrepreneurial business with impressive long-term growth plans, led by an ambitious and highly regarded owner who is committed to creating an environment where talented insurance professionals can thrive.
The Opportunity
The business currently controls approximately £7 million GWP and has a close-knit team of 15 people. It has ambitious plans to grow considerably over the coming years, making this an excellent time to join and play a meaningful role in its next chapter.
You will focus on developing the commercial insurance side of the business, generating new opportunities, building strong client relationships and creating a profitable portfolio.
The company is looking for someone who can begin writing new business from the outset.
Bringing an existing book or portfolio of clients would be highly attractive, although it is not essential. What is essential is that you can demonstrate a clear and credible business plan showing how you will generate opportunities and develop your book.
This is not a heavily managed position. You will be trusted to manage your own activity, build relationships in your own way and take ownership of your results.
You will work closely with a down-to-earth and approachable Managing Director who is keen to offer genuine flexibility and autonomy.

A clear strategy for building a profitable client portfolio
Strong relationship-building and communication skills

Additional bonus linked to growth
Genuine autonomy over how you develop your book
Flexibility from an approachable leadership team
The opportunity to join an ambitious independent broker
