Account Executive – Commercial Insurance | Newcastle
A rare opportunity to build and grow a commercial insurance portfolio within an established Newcastle office, backed by one of the UK’s most respected specialist brokers.
This is not a typical Account Executive role. This is your chance to build, shape and lead. Our client has created a strong platform in Newcastle, with an established private client base and access to high-quality relationships across the region. Many of these clients hold wider commercial interests, creating a natural opportunity to develop a high-quality commercial offering. This role sits at the centre of that ambition.
You will inherit a portfolio built on long-standing relationships and trust, alongside a clear mandate to grow and develop it into a meaningful commercial book, leveraging both existing clients and new opportunities. Working with privately owned businesses, complex risks and well-connected clients, you will operate as a trusted adviser, delivering considered, strategic advice. This is a role defined by quality, not volume — where long-term relationships drive success.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
