• Agency Owners or Senior Agents who may be considering a transition and are open to exploring flexible, long-term alignment opportunities

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and manage a portfolio of personal, farm, and commercial insurance clients

• Additional performance-based incentives and bonuses
• Highly competitive earning potential aligned with production and growth
• Access to a broad carrier network and product portfolio
• Operational, service, and marketing support

We are focused on long-term, strategic growth and are open to the right opportunities to expand our footprint. This includes working with experienced agents or current agency owners who may be considering a transition.

For the right individual, this can create an opportunity to:

• Move from employee to ownership while maintaining involvement in client relationships
• Continue producing with the support of an established and growing organization
• Transition your Agency with continuity and long-term stability for clients and business relationships

We are flexible in how we structure these opportunities and are open to conversations that align with both individual goals and long-term agency growth.
