Responsibilities
* Prospect and generate leads for new business through networking, referrals, marketing, and community involvement.
* Consult with clients (individuals, families, and businesses) to understand their insurance needs and risks.
* Compare and present quotes from multiple insurance carriers to recommend the best coverage at competitive rates.
* Sell and bind policies for auto, home, renters, life, business/commercial, umbrella, and other lines.

Requirements

* Previous experience in insurance sales, customer service, or a related field is advantageous but not always required—motivated beginners are welcome.
* Strong communication and interpersonal skills to build trust and explain complex coverage options clearly.
* Self-motivated, goal-oriented, and entrepreneurial mindset (ideal for independent producer structure).
* Proficiency with agency management software, quoting tools, and basic office technology.
* Valid driver's license and reliable transportation for client meetings or networking.
What We Offer
* Each contract is built based on your goals and is tailored to your business.

* Agency support including training, marketing resources, carrier appointments, and office facilities.
* Flexibility in schedule and work style (hybrid or field-based options possible).
* Opportunity to grow your own book of business with ownership rights.
