Account Executive

Our Client

Hooker & Heijden are proud to partner with a rapidly growing brokerage that has built a strong reputation for delivering modern, efficient, and client‑centric commercial insurance solutions. With a strong pipeline of inbound opportunities and a commitment to innovation, this brokerage is expanding its team and seeking an ambitious Commercial Broker with a passion for writing new business.

This is an opportunity to join a business that moves quickly, embraces technology, and provides the support needed to build a substantial portfolio at pace.

The Opportunity

This role is ideal for a broker who thrives on momentum, enjoys converting opportunities into clients, and prefers a fast‑moving environment over traditional, slow‑paced broking models.

You will work with a steady flow of inbound enquiries, referrals, and targeted outreach activity—rather than cold starting every deal. Supported by strong marketing infrastructure and modern broking systems, you will focus on what you do best: winning and retaining commercial clients.

The Role

As the successful applicant, you will:

• Manage and convert a consistent pipeline of commercial insurance opportunities
  

• Build and grow a portfolio of SME and mid‑market clients across multiple industry segments
  

• Provide expert advice across a broad range of commercial insurance classes
  

• Move efficiently through the full broking lifecycle: discovery, market engagement, recommendation, and bind
  

• Deliver exceptional client service throughout the year, not just at renewal
  

• Generate new opportunities through referrals, networking, and proactive outreach
  

• Utilise digital broking systems to manage quotes, policies, and workflow
  

• Contribute to the ongoing refinement of sales processes and client‑experience frameworks
  

This role suits someone who enjoys working quickly, values efficiency, and wants to build a meaningful book of business without being constrained by legacy processes.

Skills & Experience That Will Lead to Success

Required

• Tier 1 Insurance Broking Compliance and/or Diploma of Insurance Broking
  

• Minimum 3 years’ experience in commercial insurance broking
  

• Strong communication and relationship‑building skills
  

• Ability to manage commercial accounts end‑to‑end
  

Ideal Attributes

• Proven track record of writing and converting new business
  

• Comfortable using technology to streamline workflow
  

• Commercial mindset with a genuine drive to grow
  

• Self‑starter who thrives in a fast‑moving environment
  

• Ability to build trust quickly with clients and insurer partners
  

• Interest in contributing to the growth of a modern, expanding brokerage
  

What’s In It For You

This is a rare opportunity to join a brokerage during an exciting growth phase, with the ability to influence systems, culture, and client‑experience standards.

You will benefit from:

• Strong earning potential – competitive base salary uncapped incentives
  

• A steady flow of opportunities – no waiting for renewals to roll around
  

• Modern tools and systems that help you move faster and focus on clients
  

• Supportive leadership that values initiative over micromanagement
  

• Flexibility – remote or hybrid working options
  

• Genuine career growth as the business continues to scale
