Banstead | £30,000–£38,000 + Benefits
Are you an experienced insurance professional who enjoys taking ownership of a book of business, building strong client relationships and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes?
CKB Recruitment is delighted to be working with a rapidly growing independent insurance broking group that is looking to appoint an experienced Account Handler to its team near Banstead.
This is an exciting time to join the business. The group currently looks after approximately £17 million in gross written premium, with this expected to exceed £20 million by the end of the year—and further growth firmly on the agenda.
The role will initially focus on supporting the integration of a newly acquired book of business. You will take ownership of transferring the clients into the wider group, managing their ongoing insurance requirements and helping to ensure a seamless transition.
The Role
The acquired book contains a mixture of commercial and personal lines business, so ideally you will have experience across both areas.
A key part of the position will involve transferring data from Open GI onto Acturis. Previous experience using both systems would therefore be extremely useful, although strong Acturis experience is the main priority.
