My client in Chester are looking for someone who thrives on winning people over, finding new opportunities to talk and develop new relationships.

You will be fed leads and then be the sharp end of the business and go in and close those opportunities. You will also be able to keep all of those clients that you see fit – this is a great book building opportunity.

If you have a solid understanding of cross commercial insurance and like the challenge of winning new business by any of the following methods: networking, phone work, social media/linkedin, trade shows, old fashioned graft, prospecting, social selling etc

This may be the right role for you. Paying an attractive base of £55k+ and maybe more for someone with real, demonstrable evidence of success, free parking and only one day in the office as of course . . . you will be busy seeing clients.
