If you excel at building relationships and have a sharp eye for commercial risk, this is your opportunity to take ownership of a portfolio and shape a rewarding career with a broker that genuinely values expertise.

The Role

This is an outside role, perfect for someone who thrives on being out in the field. You'll spend your time predominantly across South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire, visiting clients on-site, attending insurer surveys, and securing new business. Working closely with our internal broking team to market risks, you'll ensure clients receive tailored solutions for their commercial insurance needs. From negotiating renewals to guiding clients through the claims process, you'll be the face of Dobson & Hodge, delivering a service that builds long-term loyalty.

Key Responsibilities

  • Proactively generate and secure new business enquiries across the South and West Yorkshire region
  • Manage and service an existing portfolio of commercial clients, including renewal negotiations
  • Attend on-site client visits and accompany insurers during surveys to provide expert support
  • Assist clients with claims, offering clear guidance and a steady hand throughout the process
  • Collaborate with our internal team to market risks and secure competitive terms for clients
  • Build and maintain strong, professional relationships with both clients and insurer partners

What You'll Need

  • Proven experience in an outside account executive role or strong commercial insurance knowledge with a genuine desire to move into a field-based position
  • Broad and confident knowledge across all areas of commercial insurance policies
  • A natural ability to build rapport, influence decisions, and negotiate effectively
  • Self-motivation and excellent organisational skills to manage your own diary and travel
  • Full UK driving licence, as this role involves regular travel across the region

What's On Offer

  • Salary in the region of £35,000 to £45,000, depending on experience
  • Performance-related bonus
  • Office hours are 8:45am to 5:00pm, providing a consistent routine around your client visits
  • Based at our Doncaster office with travel covering South and West Yorkshire
