You've established yourself in the insurance industry as a reputable, highly experienced speciality insurance broker. You know how to win business, build lasting client relationships, deliver quality advice and navigate complex professional risks.

But what if your next career move offered more scope to use that experience, pursue new opportunities and make your mark?

That's where Planned Cover comes in.

For more than 50 years, Planned Cover has helped architects, engineers, town planners and other built environment professionals navigate complex risks. As a specialist insurance and risk management adviser, we combine deep industry knowledge, solid insurer relationships and tailored solutions that go beyond traditional insurance broking.

As we enter our next phase of growth, we're looking for an experienced Client Director to help expand our business and deliver even greater value to our clients.

The opportunity

Reporting to our Chief Broking Officer, you'll play a senior role in managing and growing a portfolio of high-value professional services clients, delivering expert advice and tailored solutions for complex professional lines products.

Combining strategic account leadership, technical expertise, business development and a unique value proposition, you'll:

- Drive new business growth, identifying and securing opportunities while building a strong, sustainable client portfolio.
- Manage strategic client relationships, working closely with business owners, directors and senior executives to understand their risks, strengthen partnerships and deliver the Company’s strategic objectives.
- Facilitate complex Financial Lines strategies and placements.
- Contribute to our growth strategy, bringing your commercial insight, industry connections and ideas to help expand Planned Cover's presence across the built environment sector.

What you'll bring

We're looking for an experienced broker who brings together technical expertise,



commercial ambition and a genuine talent for developing business and building lasting relationships.

Ideally, you'll bring:

- Extensive experience in professional indemnity insurance broking, ideally complemented by expertise in general insurance and cyber.
- A demonstrated track record of winning new business and retaining and growing valuable client accounts.
- Established industry networks across architecture, engineering, construction and other professional services.
- Sound commercial judgement and the ability to understand complex client risks and develop tailored insurance and risk management solutions.
- The confidence to engage with senior decision makers and a collaborative approach to working with colleagues and clients.
- Above all, you'll understand that great broking is about more than placing insurance. It's about understanding your clients' businesses, anticipating their risks and building relationships based on trust.

Why Planned Cover?

With more than 50 years of experience, Planned Cover combines established industry relationships and deep technical expertise with ambitious plans for the future.

Our purpose is grounded in supporting the professionals who shape the built environment. You'll work alongside an experienced CEO and executive leadership team who are committed to that purpose, and to creating an environment where talented people can thrive and make a meaningful contribution.
