Commercial Account Executive

This isn’t just another Account Executive role.

It’s a stepping stone.

A genuine opportunity to move from servicing clients… to owning them.

To go from supporting revenue… to driving it.

And to do it with backing, structure, and real opportunity around you.

The opportunity

You’ll inherit a small, loyal client book from day one.

Not overwhelming. Not neglected. Just enough to get you started properly.

Alongside that, you’ll have access to strong new business leads, quality data, and a business that actually wants you to grow.

This isn’t a “good luck, go and win it” role.

It’s a platform.

You’ll be expected to build, develop and retain clients across the SME and mid-market space, supported by a team that understands what growth actually looks like.

Who this is for

This role is built for someone ready to step up.

• A Senior Account Handler who wants their first Account Executive role
• Someone who understands clients, not just policies
• Someone who’s started to lean into conversations around growth, not just service
• Someone who wants progression, not promises
• You don’t need to be the finished article.

You just need the intent.

What you’ll be doing

• Managing and developing an inherited portfolio of commercial clients
• Building relationships that last, not just win business
• Converting leads and data into real revenue
• Working closely with internal teams to deliver consistently high standards
• Gradually building your own book and identity within the business

Why this role stands out

• Hybrid working from a well-positioned Caterham office
• A business that will give you leads, not just targets
• Clear progression from day one, not something “that might happen”
• A chance to build something of your own within a stable, growing broker
• A salary of £40,000 to £50,000 plus bonus and benefits

A driving license is essential for this role as you will be expected to travel to meet clients.

The bigger picture

This is about trajectory.

Not just what you do next…

but where it leads.

If you’re ready to move from being a strong handler to a credible, client-facing Account Executive, this is exactly the kind of role that gets you there.
