Melton Mowbray | £50,000 - £75,000 + Uncapped Commission | Flexible Working
Are you an experienced Commercial Account Executive looking for greater freedom, stronger earning potential and the opportunity to play a key role in the growth of an ambitious independent broker?
CKB Recruitment is delighted to be working with a growing, relationship-led commercial insurance brokerage based in Melton Mowbray.
Since launching, the business has built an excellent reputation for providing clear, straightforward advice and genuinely personal service. It has developed a talented team, strong client retention and several successful specialist-sector propositions.
As part of its continued expansion, the company is now looking for an accomplished Commercial Account Executive who can create new opportunities, build a profitable portfolio and become an important part of its next chapter.
The Opportunity
This is not a heavily controlled corporate sales role dominated by rigid processes, call targets and endless internal reporting.
You will be given the autonomy and support to develop business in the way that works best for you. This could be through your existing network, introducer relationships, professional connections, sector specialisms or proactive new-business development.
You will work closely with an experienced Account Management team, allowing you to concentrate on winning business, developing client relationships and providing high-quality commercial insurance advice.
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.
