Summary
An opportunity is available for an experienced Account Executive to join a successful and growing team in the Leicester area. This role has been created to support the continued expansion of the business, and to ensure a significant and well-established book of business, worth between £300,000 and £400,000 in income, is properly managed and developed. The successful candidate will take ownership of this portfolio, maintaining strong client relationships, ensuring high service standards, and contributing to further growth through both retention and selective new business activity.
The book includes a diverse mix of clients, including several high-value accounts generating £50,000 to £60,000 in earnings. It has been built largely through internal collaboration, and the business has now reached a point where a dedicated executive is needed to take on a defined portion of the workload. This is a senior-level role requiring someone who is confident, commercially capable, and able to work independently without the need for close supervision or training.
This is a proactive hire, made possible by the business’s strong performance and the increasing demands of a growing client base. The team is looking for someone who can step in and make an immediate impact, with the support of a wider group structure that includes operational resources and a dedicated claims department. This allows the Account Executive to focus on client service and relationship management.
Candidates should be based within a reasonable distance of Leicester, as proximity is important for effective client servicing. Salary expectations should be realistic and aligned with the size of the book, with a typical benchmark of around 25 percent of income depending on experience and contribution. Interviews are already underway, so early interest is encouraged.
