With its highly innovative approach, commitment to launching the best-in-class products, and its unwavering focus on being true market leaders, this is an opportune time to join the company. Due to the ongoing growth of this organisation, we know of no other insurer that can match its career development opportunities. In fact, this position has arisen as a result of a recent internal promotion, gained within an impressive timescale. This is a business where everyone’s successes are highly visible to the board, who take meritocracy and reward & recognition very seriously. Reporting to the Business Development Director, you will play an integral role in bringing its unique sector proposition to the broker community, driving maximum awareness and engagement. Leading the business development team, you will help to identify brokers who have business in relevant product sectors, whilst developing a robust pipeline of new opportunities.

We are flexible on location, but you must be within commuting distance (hybrid-working) from one of our client’s key branch locations (Leeds, Manchester, or London). You will be rewarded with an attractive basic salary, together with a performance-related bonus, which based on current business levels, far exceeds anything that is achievable at competing insurers. In addition, you will have access to a highly impressive rage of corporate benefits, which includes substantial pension contributions.

Hi, we’re Griffin! We’re the bank for companies who want to build and launch financial products. We're rapidly heading towards a future where most of us access financial services through technology companies rather than high street banks. All sorts of companies are now embedding financial products into their apps and user journeys so that their customers can seamlessly make payments, manage expenses, take out loans, save, invest, and do more. The problem is that companies are still dependent on legacy banking infrastructure if they want to offer regulated financial products. They need to either partner directly with an incumbent bank and/or stitch together middleware from various Banking as a Service (BaaS) providers. This process is slow, expensive, and complex and makes it very hard for companies to get new financial products off the ground. At Griffin, we want to change this. We want to make it easy for companies to bring finance to their customers at the point of greatest relevance. So, we built a bank. But not just any bank! Griffin is a technology platform and a bank: fully regulated, API-first, developer-centric, and purpose-built to serve innovative fintechs and brands who want to build and embed financial products. _ Our culture is our most important asset, and one of the ways we safeguard it is by being extremely intentional about hiring the right people. We won't hire people who don’t seem like a strong fit for our core values, even if they're otherwise extremely qualified. We also believe that smart, motivated, conscientious people thrive in high-trust, high-autonomy environments. That’s why we’re transparent by default, and we encourage open discussion and challenge across all levels of the organisation. We’re also remote-first, asynchronous, and fully flexible - because you're the expert on how and when you do your best work. _ Our Risk and Compliance team keeps Griffin compliant, protected and moving quickly and like most of the company, we are growing fast. Governance sits at the heart of what we do: we take it seriously, build it properly, and treat it as a foundation for everything else. This role sits at the centre of that and you'll be the person who makes things happen. Reporting to our Head of Compliance, you'll own our company secretarial function end to end, creating structure, clarity, and confidence at Board level. You’ll be a trusted point of contact for the Board, our iNEDs, and senior stakeholders across the business and operating at the heart of decision-making and helping shape how we scale. You will also have the opportunity to support the legal team with paralegal work (contracts negotiation, NDAs, legal research, and more). In your first few months, you will have taken full ownership of the board and committee cycle. Papers go out on time, minutes are turned around promptly, and actions are tracked and closed without anyone having to chase you. You will be the go to person for the share options scheme, built strong relationships with our external advisers, and created systems that scale as Griffin grows. Beyond that, senior leadership are spending less time on governance administration because you have made the process seamless. The Board and iNEDs know who you are and trust you to keep things moving. You are a go-to person for governance questions across the business. The full board and committee cycle (scheduling, papers, minutes, and action tracking) across the Board, BAC, BRC, P&G, Exco, and internal committees.

Enterprise Account Executive £80,000 - £100,000 Basic Salary | £150,000 - £200,000+ OTE | Equity Opportunity This opportunity is aimed at experienced enterprise sales professionals who have already proven themselves in services, managed services, transformation, software or professional services environments and are now looking for something more. More autonomy.More influence.More earning potential. And a genuine opportunity to share in the value they help create. The Opportunity Our client is a specialist advisory and consulting business that has established a strong reputation delivering complex programmes into highly regulated organisations. The business already works with enterprise clients across Banking, Financial Services and Insurance and is expanding rapidly across sectors including Energy, Utilities, Gaming and Consumer Credit. Unlike many consulting firms, growth has been built through delivery excellence, long-term client relationships and commercial credibility rather than aggressive sales targets or corporate bureaucracy. The result is a business with genuine momentum and a clear growth strategy. Why This Role Is Different This isn't a corporate sales environment. There are no layers of management. No internal politics. No unnecessary reporting structures. No restrictions on how you manage your diary, territory or client relationships. Instead, you'll operate as a trusted commercial leader responsible for creating and developing strategic enterprise relationships across target markets. You'll have the freedom to build your own approach, supported by a leadership team that values outcomes rather than activity metrics. The Bigger Picture The founders have a clear long-term growth plan and are building a business with significant future value. As part of that journey, there will be opportunities for high-performing individuals to participate in that growth through equity, creating genuine alignment between individual success and company success. This is an opportunity to become part of the story rather than simply carrying a sales target. The Person We're interested in speaking with proven enterprise sales professionals who have experience selling services or complex business solutions into large organisations. You will likely have: Experience engaging C-suite and senior stakeholders A track record of winning six-figure and seven-figure opportunities Experience navigating complex enterprise sales cycles Exposure to regulated sectors such as Financial Services, Insurance, Utilities, Gaming or similar A consultative, commercially driven approach Most importantly, you'll be ambitious enough to recognise the difference between earning a commission and creating long-term value. Why Join? Alongside a basic salary of £80,000 - £100,000 and uncapped earnings potential, you'll join a business that offers something increasingly rare: the opportunity to combine enterprise-level sales with genuine flexibility, meaningful influence and the ability to share in the value you help create. If you've reached the point in your career where you're looking for more than simply another sales role, we'd welcome a confidential conversation. Sales Recruit UK We connect great sales people with great companies. We recruit at all levels from internal sales, sales executive, sales engineer, area sales manager, territory sales manager, business development manager, regional sales manager, national sales manager and sales director.
