Commercial Account Executive / Account Director

Yorkshire / Lancashire | Hybrid

A national commercial insurance broker is continuing to expand across the North and is appointing multiple Account Executives and Account Directors as part of sustained growth.

This is a well-established business (50+ years) with national reach, strong financial performance, and a clear plan to scale further over the next five years. Backed by significant investment, the firm is acquisitive and continues to invest in people, regional leadership, and modern data-led capability.

The Role

• Build and develop a portfolio of commercial clients across Yorkshire and Lancashire
• Generate new business through existing relationships, introducers, and market activity
• Retain and grow income through effective client management
• Work with strong insurer relationships and established broking support
• Use data, insight, and modern systems to support client and growth strategy

This is a role created through ongoing expansion, not replacement.

The Opportunity

Most Account Executive roles talk about “long-term opportunity”. Few genuinely deliver it. This one is structured to -

• Ownership-style upside without the need to set up independently
• Clear earnings model with bonus on new business once thresholds are met
• Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP), providing for :-
• Lump-sum payout every few years
• Directly linked to the value of your client book
• Rewards sustained performance and client retention
• Structure designed to increasingly reflect the true value of your portfolio

This is aimed at individuals who want to build equity-like value over time, not just short-term income.

• Individuals with strong client relationships and a commercial mindset
• Those focused on building long-term value rather than transactional wins
• Professionals seeking autonomy, backed by infrastructure and support

The Business

• National broker with hundreds of millions in GWP and a large UK workforce
• Strong financial performance and consistent growth
• Active across multiple niche and specialist sectors
• Ongoing investment in technology, data, and analytics

Package
