Business Development Lead - Real Estate Networker

IPS Group • Full-time • Birmingham, West Midlands, UK • 5d ago

I’m working with a leading independent insurance broker based in central Birmingham that’s looking to appoint a senior-level Business Development Executive. This rare opportunity has arisen following the promotion of the former Branch Director to a Regional Director role – and now they’re seeking someone with strong real estate connections to drive growth.This role is perfect for someone with a strong “little black book” of property and construction contacts – someone who knows the sector inside out and can open doors, spark conversations, and organically generate new leads.Importantly, my client is open to backgrounds beyond insurance. If you're currently working in real estate sales, land acquisition, property development, or construction business development – and you're looking for a new challenge in a related but fresh industry – this could be an excellent move.You’ll need to be well-connected with key players in the sector such as:

Property developers
Estate and lettings agents
Real estate investors
Managing agents
Asset and facilities managers
Surveyors and land agents
Construction directors and contract managers

This is a senior appointment with clear visibility and autonomy, reporting directly into the Head of Office. You’ll be supported by an experienced broking and servicing team but will lead the charge on building new relationships and bringing in commercial opportunities.If you're a confident networker with a strong foothold in the real estate or construction space and are open to bringing those skills into insurance, I’d love to speak with you.
