Business Development Manager – Property Insurance
QLD - Brisbane CBD
Full Time
Job description
Your new company
An exciting opportunity has become available with a growing insurance business that is investing heavily in its Queensland expansion. With a collaborative leadership team, strong referral model, and ambitious growth plans, this is an opportunity to join a business where your impact will be highly visible.
Your new role
As a BDM, you will be responsible for developing and managing referral partnerships across Queensland.
Key responsibilities include:
- Identifying and winning new referral partners across property, legal, finance, insurance and professional services sectors
- Building strong relationships with mortgage brokers, conveyancers, solicitors, property professionals and other referral sources
- Managing and growing existing partner relationships to increase referral activity
- Delivering presentations, meetings and networking activities to build market awareness
- Maintaining a healthy sales pipeline and strong CRM discipline
- Working closely with internal stakeholders to maximise partner outcomes and customer experience
- Managing your own territory and business development strategy across Queensland
This is a highly autonomous role, suited to someone who enjoys being on the road, building relationships and taking ownership of their territory.
What you'll need to succeed
To be successful in this role, you will ideally have:
- Experience in business development, account management, partnership sales or B2B sales
- A strong hunter mentality with the ability to develop new relationships
- Background in insurance, property, mortgage broking, legal, financial services, real estate or another professional services environment
- Excellent stakeholder engagement and relationship management skills
- A consultative sales approach and strong commercial acumen
- Strong organisational, presentation and communication skills
- Ability to work independently and manage Queensland territory
Insurance experience is very beneficial but not essential. The client is open to candidates from broader relationship-driven B2B environments.
What you'll get in return
- A permanent full-time position with a growing insurance business
- Genuine long-term progression potential into leadership as the business grows (in as soon as 12–24 months)
- Strong base salary and a highly incentivised commission structure with significant earning potential
- A Brisbane-based role with flexibility around location across the broader Brisbane / Gold Coast / Sunshine Coast corridor
- High levels of autonomy, with an outcomes-focused management style
- The opportunity to build out a key territory from the ground up
- The chance to join a supportive, collaborative and people-focused organisation with strong growth aspirations
