Account Manager - Corporate

Edgewise Insurance Brokers is a relationship driven general insurance brokerage providing insurance solutions to businesses, industries and individuals. As part of the Steadfast broker network, we combine the strength and stability of one of Australia's leading insurance networks with a collaborative, people focused culture. Based in our modern Cremorne office, we are committed to delivering exceptional client outcomes while investing in the growth and development of our people.

We are looking for an experienced Account Manager to join our broking team. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys managing and developing client relationships, but is also ready to broaden their impact through people leadership, new business and a greater contribution to the team and wider business.

About the Role

As an Account Manager, you will take ownership of an established portfolio of corporate clients, building strong relationships and delivering high quality insurance advice and broking solutions.

You will bring strong product and market knowledge and the confidence to manage client relationships and insurance programs with a high degree of autonomy. You will understand your clients' businesses, identify their evolving risks and work with insurers to deliver appropriate solutions and outcomes.

Importantly, this role goes beyond managing your own portfolio. You will lead and develop a small team, drive and contribute to new business and portfolio growth, and play an active role in the performance, capability and culture of the broader team.

For an experienced Account Manager looking to continue developing their leadership, commercial and business development capability, this role provides a genuine opportunity to build towards the next stage of your broking career.

• A proactive approach to new business, referrals and opportunities for growth.
• Strong insurer relationships.
• Confidence to take ownership, make decisions and provide guidance to others.
