Job description

Recruitment Consultant at The Ardonagh Group

Are you someone who thrives in the Insurance Industry? We’re on the hunt for a talented Insurance Account Executive or potentially an experienced Account Handler who uses their knowledge and experience of the Insurance Industry to build strong, trusted, and profitable client and customer relationships. Is a successful career within a growing business full of opportunity, where you will have flexibility and fun what you’re looking for? Then please, read on…

This role will be made for you if you love fostering relationships and helping clients find the right Insurance products to fit their needs. Our Account Executives are excellent at tailoring their approach, working with clients face to face, on the phone or via video calls. Our clients will need your support all year round and then there are those all-important networking and prospecting activities that will help you to build and develop your portfolio as you go.
As an Account Executive here, it isn’t only about the “upsell” or the “cross sell”. Unlike similar roles focused on growth, working with us puts you in a unique position to offer clients solutions from a diverse range of brands and wide breadth of products with huge opportunity across the Group. We are open to hearing from people from all backgrounds to join us, so speak to us about our hybrid and flexible ways of working for Account Executives if the 9-5 life always in an office isn’t for you.

It’s essential that you have experience gained from within the Insurance Industry from a similar role and it would be a bonus if you have any relevant qualifications, though we offer tons of opportunity to gain these once you join us.

• Most important is your ability to bring your best self to work every day to give our clients the best possible experience
• Next, we need you to be proactive, use your initiative and show us your entrepreneurial spirit to identify opportunities to grow our business
• Be driven to learn and be curious, especially about the Insurance Industry
• Work well with your team, support others and have a positive outlook, be engaging, collaborative and have the resilience to adapt to whatever changes come your way. There is never a dull moment with us.
• Always demonstrate integrity, not only is this essential within a financially regulated organisation, it’s also the right way to be

Benefits

In return you will be welcomed and supported by our Ardonagh family and be joining an organisation that cares about you as a person and your wellbeing. Some of the other benefits are:

• Holiday entitlement of 26 days plus bank holidays, increasing with length of service
• Opportunity to progress your career across the entire Ardonagh family
• Gain CII or ACII qualifications to boost your knowledge and career prospects
• Pensions scheme for when you feel it’s time to retire
• 24-hour support for physical and mental wellbeing
• 1 paid volunteering day to give back to our communities
• The Spotlight Awards, where we shine a light on the brightest talent across our group

Everywhen is an equal opportunities employer, with a growing and thriving diversity, equity and inclusion strategy; we are committed to a working environment that is free from discrimination, is inclusive, and empowers our people to bring their whole self to work and reach their full potential.

If your application is successful, we will conduct relevant employment checks prior to you commencing employment with us. These will include verifying your recent employment, address, credit history and a standard criminal record check. We may close a vacancy prior to the publish end date if the required quality or number of applications has been received.

We will not pay for unsolicited CVs from recruiters and employment agencies unless we have a signed agreement and have requested assistance, in writing, for a specific opening.
