Job Description: Account Executive Opportunity
If you’re an Account Executive who wants a platform to grow, but not a blank sheet of paper, this is the sort of move that stands out.
These roles are built around growth and succession planning. Not damage control. Not covenant clean-up. Not a book under attack.
You’ll be taking on established commercial clients from senior colleagues who are either approaching retirement or moving into leadership roles internally - which means proper handovers and solid relationships.
Why this is attractive
- Inherited clients already producing meaningful income
- Typically accounts generating at least £5,000 to £10,000 income
- That is the floor, not the ceiling
- Some clients are substantially larger
- A genuine chance to develop and deepen an existing portfolio
- New business still matters, but you are not starting from scratch
What the role looks like
- Inherit and develop a portfolio of established commercial clients
- Take over relationships through a structured, credible handover
- Build trust with clients, insurers and internal teams quickly
- Grow existing income through strong advice and account development
- Win additional business through your own network and market activity
- Work closely with broking and specialist teams to deliver the right solutions
- Build a long-term book with quality, not just volume
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.
What these opportunities are not
- Not a distressed replacement
- Not a last-minute exit cover
- Not a seat where the clients are expected to be remarketed within 12 months
- Not a role built around replacing someone seeing out a covenant
These are succession-led hires with proper planning behind them.
Who this could suit
- An Account Executive who wants more substance around inherited income
- A New Business Executive who wants a more rounded portfolio role
- A senior Commercial Broker ready to step into a producer position
- Someone who values client quality and long-term development
- Someone who wants autonomy, but with proper backing behind them
The business
You would be joining a large, specialist-led insurance group that has scaled quickly through acquisitions, built real depth across commercial broking and specialist lines, and now has revenues above £x00 million. It positions itself around local relationships backed by wider group strength, specialist expertise and investment in growth.

- Matched company pension contributions

The next step
If you’re open to a move, but only where there is genuine inherited value, proper support and a realistic platform for growth, this is worth a confidential conversation.
No hard sell.
Just a straight discussion about which office, which book and whether the opportunity is strong enough to justify a move.
