Account Handler

Account handler recruitment specialists connecting skilled insurance professionals with leading brokers and intermediaries across the UK.

At Lawes Consulting Group, we place Account Handlers who provide the technical support, client service and administrative expertise that keeps a broking operation running smoothly and clients well served.

Account Handler Recruitment Expertise

Account Handlers are the backbone of any successful broking operation. Working alongside Account Executives and Placing Brokers, they provide the technical support, documentation management and day-to-day client service that ensures policies are placed accurately, renewals are managed efficiently and clients receive the level of service they expect. It is a role that requires strong attention to detail, solid technical knowledge and excellent communication skills.

At Lawes Consulting Group, we recruit Account Handlers across a wide range of broking environments and classes of business, from SME commercial lines through to corporate, specialty and high-net-worth accounts. We work with independent brokers, national broking groups and Lloyd's market intermediaries, placing candidates at all levels from junior Account Handlers through to Senior Account Handlers and those stepping into team leadership positions.

Technical Competence and Client Service

The best Account Handlers combine a thorough understanding of insurance products and policy documentation with the ability to manage client queries professionally and efficiently. As broking firms continue to invest in service quality and client retention, the Account Handler role has become increasingly important to the overall client experience. We assess candidates not only on their technical knowledge but on their approach to client communication and their ability to work effectively within a team.

A Pathway to Progression

For many insurance professionals, the Account Handler role provides an excellent foundation for a long-term career in broking. It offers exposure to a wide range of clients, products and processes, and provides a natural pathway into Account Executive, Placing Broker or team leadership roles. We work with candidates at all stages of their career to identify opportunities that support their development and long-term goals.
