Branch Director

A leading international insurance broker is appointing a Branch Director to lead its Yorkshire operation. This is a full P&L leadership role with real autonomy: you'll own the branch's growth plan, shape the team, and set the commercial direction for the region, backed by the specialist resources, markets and product depth of a top-tier broking group.

The role

• Full ownership of branch performance, including revenue, profitability, retention and new business growth
• Lead, develop and retain a team of account executives, account handlers and new business producers
• Drive organic growth across SME, mid-market and corporate commercial clients, and build a credible pipeline in the local market
• Represent the business with insurers, introducers and key clients, and raise the branch's profile across Yorkshire
• Work alongside specialist practice groups to bring the full breadth of the group's capability to local clients
• Maintain strong governance, compliance and conduct standards across the branch

What you'll bring

• A track record of leading a commercial broking branch, region or significant team, with clear accountability for results
• Strong commercial insurance technical knowledge and credibility with clients and markets
• Proven ability to grow a book and build a new business culture, not just manage an existing one
• Established relationships across the Yorkshire business community and insurer panels
• A leadership style that attracts and keeps good people
• ACII/Chartered status preferred

Why this role

This is a chance to lead a well-established branch within a business that is investing in growth, with the platform, specialist support and market access to back an ambitious local leader. It suits someone who wants genuine ownership and the backing to deliver on it.
