• Guide clients through enrollment, policy selection, and application processes
• Maintain strict compliance with federal and state insurance regulations and licensing requirements
• Cultivate long-term client relationships, answer questions, and follow up on existing policies
• Prospect for new business through networking, referrals, cold outreach, and community engagement
• Document all transactions accurately and meet reporting deadlines

What You Bring

• Valid state insurance license (or willingness to obtain one immediately upon hire)
• Proven sales ability and comfort closing business in a consultative environment
• Strong listening and communication skills—you thrive in client-facing roles and building rapport
• Self-motivated work ethic and entrepreneurial mindset; you take ownership of your results
