Key Account Manager - Protection
Department: Omni Protect
Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time
Location: Field-based
Reporting To: Managing Director for Omni Protect
Description
Help financial advisers across the North of England deliver better protection outcomes while growing their businesses.
Role Overview:
At Omni Protect, part of the Fintel group, we're looking for a Key Account Manager to support adviser firms across the North of England. Internally, this role is called Protection Business Development Manager.
Rather than winning new business, you'll work with existing Omni Protect member firms to help them maximise the value of our protection proposition, increase client protection uptake and improve adviser engagement.
This is a highly consultative role combining relationship management, coaching, commercial support and protection expertise. You'll be trusted to manage your own territory, build meaningful adviser relationships and make a genuine impact on client outcomes.
