Senior Account Handler
CV-LibraryRickmansworth, HertfordshirepermanentPosted: 11 August 2026
Apply NowAre you an experienced Commercial Insurance Account Handler who feels ready for a more challenging and rewarding role?
Our client is a highly reputable, well-established insurance intermediary with a strong market presence and a long-standing heritage in the insurance sector. Operating as part of a larger group with significant national and international reach, the business combines the stability of an established organisation with the collaborative culture of a close-knit, high-performing team.
They are now seeking an experienced Commercial Account Handler to take ownership of a diverse commercial book. This is not a “standard” servicing role; the position offers exposure to more technical risks, varied sectors, and a greater level of responsibility across both existing business and new business broking activity.

Key responsibilities include:
* Managing and servicing a varied and complex portfolio of commercial clients
* Handling mid to more technically complex commercial risks across a range of products
* Supporting Account Executives with renewals, MTAs, and new business broking
* Building and maintaining strong, long-term client relationships
* Liaising with insurers to negotiate terms, cover, and premiums
* Ensuring compliance, accuracy, and best practice across all documentation and processes
About You
This role will suit an Account Handler who is technically confident and motivated to progress into a more challenging commercial environment.
You will ideally have:
* Proven experience in commercial insurance broking or account handling
* Exposure to a broad range of commercial products and risk types
* Strong knowledge of the UK insurance market and insurer appetite
* A desire to work with more complex cases rather than volume-driven policies
* Excellent communication and relationship management skills
* A professional, client-focused approach with strong attention to detail
* Ambition, tenacity, and a genuine interest in developing your technical capability
What’s on Offer
* Salary circa £50,000, depending on experience
* Support and funding for professional insurance qualifications
* Pension and associated benefits
* A collaborative team environment with clear opportunities for development
* Exposure to more complex and interesting commercial risks
