Job details

The Opportunity Our client is looking for ambitious people to join their journey in growing from start-up to scale-up with the aim of listing in 2029. This is an opportunity for a self-starter – someone with big ambitions, but also the urgency and resilience to achieve them. Effort and potential are more important to us than experience. Who are they? The first cyber-only insurance broker in the UK, on a mission to rip up the standard broker playbook and deliver tangible value to a market unprepared for a very present and ever-growing risk. Cyber will become the most in-demand line of corporate insurance, and the current brokerage model cannot deliver the service required to tackle this comprehensively. Backed by the CEO of a FTSE 250 business, and with a founding team constructed of seasoned industry professionals, they are well set to achieve their lofty ambitions of IPO. The Role

  • Close New Business Opportunities : Work closely with Business Development Representatives to understand prospect needs and close deals in the mid-cap market.
  • Negotiate Contracts : Lead negotiations on pricing, terms, and conditions to secure agreements that are beneficial for both the client and the company.
  • Develop Client Relationships : Build and maintain strong relationships with key decision-makers and stakeholders at prospective client companies from a wide variety of industries.
  • Address Objections : Proactively address client concerns, objections, and queries, ensuring that the value of their offerings is clearly communicated.
  • Collaborate with Internal Teams : Work closely with the Business Developers and Brokers from pre-sales to renewal.
Requirements
  • 5+ years experience in a commercial sales role.
  • Experience closing new business opportunities with businesses of £50m revenue +
  • Relevant cyber/insurance experience preferred.
  • Experience negotiating with C-level execs.
  • OUTSTANDING communication level.
What’s on Offer
  • Base salary up to 90k but can be flexible dependent on a number of variables.
  • +4% on all revenue generated.
  • Transparent commission structure, with uncapped and residual commissions received on a pound-for-pound basis.
  • Annual incentive trips abroad (Ibiza last year).
  • Pension and health care
  • Equity opportunities.
