Account Executive (Book to Inherit) Flexible Home-Working

Aston Charles Ltd ,
Liverpool, Merseyside
Job Type: Full-time
Salary: £50,000 per annum

Overview

This is a genuine opportunity to inherit a substantial book of commercial business, as well as potential equity, in a very successful independent brokerage. The owner of this 3-person firm is a well-respected industry veteran and very influential in the northern business community. Having built a £3.5m GWP account, it is very much part of the owner’s business plan to hand over his personal portfolio to a competent Commercial Account Executive, once they have proven themselves within the company. Being part of one of the leading networks, you’ll benefit from impressive buying power and support. In addition, this company is partnered with a highly successful professional services firm, from which it receives referrals and arranges profitable schemes for its clients. Our client is happy to pay a significant (up to £100K) basic salary to attract the right person. However, it must be understood that initially, you will be responsible for developing your own business / transferring your portfolio, until such time that you have earned the trust of the proprietor, at which point you will inherit their book. You must be an experienced Commercial Account Executive, with sound knowledge of the major commercial covers. Just as importantly, you’ll have strong business development skills and a genuine desire to succeed. Being an independent business and not a corporate, you’ll be hands-on, a team player, and approachable, with the ability and gravitas to gain buy-in from clients from all walks of life. In line with this company’s ethos, you’ll be professional, trustworthy and personable. You’ll benefit from an attractive commission scheme and profit share deal, meaning that you will be able to earn significantly more money with this firm than at many of its competitors. Down the line, "equity is not out of the question". Refreshingly, you’ll enjoy a great amount of autonomy. Our client says, "he doesn’t mind if you spend all day on the golf course, as long as you’re doing the business." This business is based in the North West, but is happy to consider talented candidates from all over the North of England, as long as they are happy to check into the office circa once or twice a week (negotiable). This role is a stepping stone into a potential 'goldmine’, so if you’re an experienced Account Executive who is looking to build a valuable asset, then look no further than this firm.
