About Us

We are a leading, highly respected independent commercial insurance brokerage experiencing rapid growth across the UK. We pride ourselves on offering bespoke, highly tailored insurance and risk management solutions to mid-market and corporate clients.

Unlike rigid corporate environments, we give our brokers the autonomy, market access, and technical backing they need to succeed. If you are an ambitious, self-motivated insurance professional with a "hunter" mentality and a passion for winning, we want you on our team.

The Role

As a Commercial Insurance Development Broker, your primary focus is driving growth. You will be responsible for identifying, prospecting, and converting new commercial business leads into long-term clients.

You will work closely with our dedicated in-house Account Handlers, allowing you to focus on client acquisition and market negotiations while knowing your clients' day-to-day administration is in safe hands.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Pipeline & Lead Generation: Proactively identify, self-generate, and build a robust pipeline of mid-market and corporate prospective clients.
  • Risk Analysis & Program Design: Visit prospective clients to conduct thorough risk assessments, evaluate their business exposures, and design bespoke, comprehensive insurance programs.
  • Market Negotiation: Leverage our extensive insurer relations to negotiate competitive terms and robust coverage structures with underwriters.
  • Client Pitches & Presentations: Deliver compelling, professional pitches and proposals directly to directors, business owners, and C-suite executives.
  • Collaboration: Work alongside dedicated Account Handlers to transition new wins smoothly into our servicing portfolio.

About You

You are an energetic, commercial generalist who is as comfortable negotiating with a Lloyds underwriter as you are pitching to a manufacturing business director.

Key Requirements:

  • Proven Track Record: At least 3–5+ years of experience within commercial insurance broking, with a demonstrable history of winning new business.
  • Technical Knowledge: Strong technical understanding of core commercial lines (including Commercial Combined, Property, Liability, Fleet, and Financial Lines).
  • Communication & Negotiation: Exceptional face-to-face and written communication skills with the ability to build immediate trust and rapport.
  • Professional Credentials: Cert CII qualified is highly desirable, with a commitment to working towards Dip CII/ACII.
  • Mobility: A valid UK driving license is essential for visiting prospects and clients.

What We Offer

We believe in reward and recognition. Alongside a highly competitive base salary, we offer a transparent, lucrative commission structure that directly reflects your hard work.

  • Financial Reward: Base salary up to £70,000 + uncapped, market-leading bonus structure.
  • Flexibility: True hybrid working options (mix of office, field, and home working).
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Generous pension scheme, private medical insurance, life assurance, and a car allowance.
  • Professional Development: Full financial support and mentorship to complete your CII professional qualifications.
