Senior Business Developer Corporate Insurance

Description

You’ll join as a business development specialist at a brokerage firm specializing in property and casualty insurance for businesses. This isn’t a traditional account manager role, but rather a position with impact and the potential to advance toward a partnership.

• You will build and manage a portfolio of medium-sized to large companies, including international players
• You will identify opportunities and actively pursue new business (prospecting remains an essential part of the role)
• You’ll serve as a strategic advisor at the executive level and translate complex risks into strategic insurance solutions
• You’ll develop lasting relationships, both with clients and insurers, with a long-term vision
• You’ll work in self-managing teams where ownership and collaboration are key

The scope of your portfolio is not geographically defined but is based on your experience, network, and sector focus (e.g., construction, healthcare, manufacturing…).

Your profile

You’re someone who’s already firmly established in the market and ready to take the next step—one where autonomy, entrepreneurship, and impact come together.

• At least 5 years of experience in insurance, ideally 10–15 years in non-life insurance (with a focus on larger corporate accounts)
• Experience working with businesses (from SMEs to corporate clients) is essential
• Background at a brokerage or insurance company, provided you demonstrate strong commercial acumen and a proactive sales mindset
• You are comfortable interacting at the C-level and build relationships based on trust and substance
• Entrepreneurial mindset: you think in terms of growth, portfolio development, and long-term value
• Language skills: Dutch, French, and/or English.

You’ll thrive in an environment where maturity, ownership, and quality are paramount. This is not a role for mere executors or junior candidates.

Offer

You’ll be joining a mature yet entrepreneurial ecosystem that consciously positions itself as an alternative to traditional real estate brokerage models.

Flexibility in employment status: choice between salaried employment or working as a self-employed professional (through a management company)
Competitive compensation package:

Fixed-salary role: gross salary based on experience + bonus + company car
Partner track as a self-employed professional: career path toward an annual billable income.

• Monthly salary indication: unknown
• Ownership: you actively build value through your own portfolio (with clear valuation metrics, e.g., a multiple on recurring commissions)
• Hybrid work style, with regular in-person gatherings across the various hubs (Leuven, Antwerp, Ghent, Brussels)
• People-oriented culture with 360° feedback, self-managing teams, and a strong focus on sustainable collaboration
• No hard-nosed negotiation tactics, but rather a role as a substantive and strategic partner for clients and insurers
