Job Description:
Job Title: Markets Director - General Insurance
Location: Hybrid / National, with regular London presence
I'm working exclusively with one of the UK’s fastest-growing insurance broking groups to recruit a Markets Director — a brand-new role created through growth.
This is not a technical placement position. It’s a strategic, commercial leadership role at the sharp end of market engagement. You'll be responsible for managing senior insurer relationships, influencing placement strategy across the business, and leading high-value commercial negotiations that directly shape profitability.
You’ll work alongside a dynamic senior leadership team who expect results, reward performance, and promote based on impact — not tenure.
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Own and lead relationships with key strategic insurer partners (around six out of twelve).
* Negotiate multi-million-pound commercial agreements and ensure delivery of contractual commitments.
* Shape and influence internal placement strategy, working closely with broking teams to align plans with market appetite and commercial priorities.
* Drive internal engagement, ensuring brokers understand and execute the strategy effectively.
* Provide market insight, using performance data and external intelligence to inform wider business decisions.
* Lead confidently, with a clear, persuasive communication style that earns trust and gets results.
What We’re Looking For:
* An individual with gravitas and credibility in the UK insurance market.
* A commercially sharp operator, comfortable negotiating at a senior level with major insurers.
* Strong experience in placement strategy and insurer relationship management within a complex broking environment.
* A confident influencer — someone who can command a room, challenge when needed, and bring clarity to conversations internally and externally.
* A numerate, analytical thinker — ideally with a degree in a quantitative discipline.
What’s In It For You:
This is a career-defining move for someone who wants to step into a business that’s investing in growth, not fixing problems. The culture rewards initiative and capability — if you’re good, you’ll progress quickly.
* Exceptional corporate benefits.
Let’s Talk:
If you're someone who enjoys taking ownership, shaping strategy, and being recognised for your impact — let’s have a conversation.
No CV? No problem. I’m happy to talk first.
