Job description

Build a Business. Lead a Market. Own Your Future.

Goosehead Insurance is one of the fastest-growing insurance brokerages in the financial services industry, operating in a $500B+ market with significant opportunity for expansion. Through our franchise platform, entrepreneurs build independent agencies supported by enterprise technology, national carrier relationships, and a proven operating system.

We are selectively engaging recent MBA graduates who are ready to pursue business ownership and lead agency growth in high-potential markets.

This is a franchise ownership opportunity, not a traditional employment position.

Opportunity

The MBA Incentive Program is designed for high-achieving MBA graduates who want to transition from academic and professional leadership into business ownership.

Selected candidates will:

• Execute a Franchise Agreement
• Complete Goosehead’s required MBA training program
• Launch and operate their own Goosehead Insurance agency

This pathway is built for individuals who want to combine strategic thinking, operational leadership, and market execution in a scalable business model.

MBA Incentive Program

Before launching, franchise owners participate in a structured two-week virtual MBA Incentive Program focused on:

• Agency operations and compliance standards
• Sales leadership and team development
• Business planning and market strategy
• Systems training and carrier engagement

This program is designed to prepare franchise owners to confidently launch and operate their agency within the Goosehead platform.

Successful completion of the program and satisfaction of all system requirements are necessary prior to launch.

As a Goosehead Franchise Owner, You Will

• Build and lead a high-performing sales team
• Develop referral partnerships and community presence
• Leverage centralized technology, marketing, and carrier infrastructure
• Operate as an independent business owner with full responsibility for agency performance

Franchise owners are independent contractors and not employees of Goosehead Insurance.

Investment and Disclosure

This opportunity involves the purchase of a franchise. Prospective franchisees must execute a Franchise Agreement and meet all financial and operational requirements described in the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).

A launch support fund may be available following successful completion of the MBA Incentive Program, as outlined in the FDD and Franchise Agreement.

In accordance with federal and state franchise laws, candidates will receive and review the Franchise Disclosure Document prior to signing any binding agreement or making any payment.

Who We Are Looking For

• MBA degree completed within the past 5 years
• Demonstrated leadership and initiative
• Strong interest in entrepreneurship and ownership
• Financial capability to meet franchise requirements
• Authorized to work in the United States

This program is best suited for individuals who are motivated by ownership, accountability, and long-term business building.

Next Steps

If you are an MBA graduate seeking a structured path to franchise ownership within a nationally recognized platform, apply to begin the evaluation process. Qualified candidates will participate in interviews and discovery discussions to assess alignment and readiness for business ownership.

This is a franchise opportunity and not an offer of employment.
