Commercial Account Executive
Salary: Up to £75K DOE
Location: Manchester/Hybrid
My client has opened a brand-new Manchester office for an established national insurance brokerage and is now looking for an ambitious Account Executive.
If you've already proven you can win new business and you're tired of inheriting someone else's patch, working someone else's process, or waiting years for the next rung this is your shot to build the patch, set the tone, and be the name people in Manchester associate with the brand.
You'll have the weight of a national brokerage behind you infrastructure, resources, reputation, back-office support but the freedom and blank canvas of a new office. However the Manchester office grows, you'll have helped build it.
What you'll actually be doing:
- Out in the market, not behind a desk meeting business owners, directors and decision-makers face-to-face
- Hunting and converting new commercial insurance business across SME and Mid-Market
- Building your own network and pipeline, on your own diary, your own way
- Partnering with Account Handlers and the broking team to close and deliver
- Helping shape how the Manchester office operates, grows, and is known in the region
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Who we want:
- You're a proven producer you already know how to win business and you're hungry to do it somewhere your impact is visible, not diluted across a big established team.
- Track record of strong commercial insurance income generation
- Genuinely energised by prospecting, networking, and new relationships
- Confident building senior relationships with business owners and directors
- Commercially sharp — you understand what SME and Mid-Market clients actually need
- Comfortable with autonomy, motivated by targets, and ready to travel to meet clients
- Ambitious enough to want a real stake in something new, not just a bigger salary.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Why this, why now
- Ground-floor opportunity - join at the start of the Manchester build-out, not five years in
- Backed, not boxed in - national resources and reputation, local autonomy
- Real visibility - your wins are the office's wins, and everyone will see it
- Up to £75,000 depending on experience, plus enhanced pension, life assurance, 25 days holiday + bank holidays
- Genuine flexibility - hybrid working, manage your own diary
- A clear runway - strong long-term career progression as the office scales
If you have a history in commercial insurance and are a confident producer with a great track record we'd love to hear from you!
