Account executive recruitment specialists connecting experienced insurance professionals with leading brokers and intermediaries across the UK.
At Lawes Consulting Group, we place Account Executives who combine strong client relationship skills, technical insurance knowledge and the commercial ability to retain and grow a portfolio of business.
The Account Executive is one of the most commercially important roles within a broking organisation. Responsible for managing and developing a portfolio of client relationships, the Account Executive must combine deep technical knowledge of insurance products and risk with the interpersonal skills to build trust, retain clients and identify opportunities for growth. It is a role that sits at the heart of a broker's revenue model, and finding the right individual requires a recruiter who understands both the commercial and technical dimensions of the position.
At Lawes Consulting Group, we have extensive experience placing Account Executives across a wide range of broking environments, from independent regional brokers through to large national and global intermediaries. We recruit across all major lines of business, including Commercial, Corporate, SME, Private Clients, Specialty and Employee Benefits, ensuring that every candidate we present has the right combination of market knowledge and client management experience for your specific environment.
The most effective Account Executives are those who can do more than simply service existing clients — they actively develop relationships, identify cross-selling opportunities and contribute to the organic growth of the business. We look for candidates who demonstrate a proactive approach to account management, a strong understanding of their clients' risk profiles and the ability to work collaboratively with placing and technical teams to deliver the best outcomes.
For candidates, the Account Executive role often represents a significant step in a broking career, offering the opportunity to take ownership of a client portfolio and develop the commercial skills that underpin progression to senior account management, team leadership or business development roles. We work with candidates to identify opportunities that match their experience, their portfolio specialism and their long-term career ambitions.
