Description

About Responsive 

Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Plantation, Florida, Responsive is a leading provider of personal auto insurance in Florida. We partner with thousands of agents representing the industry’s best and most respected insurance agencies to deliver a top-notch service and claims experience. Our customers agree: in 2021, we received a Google reviews rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars—all because of the Responsive way we approach our business.

But Responsive is more than just our name—It’s a promise to make auto insurance simple, affordable, and hassle-free. We regularly ask our employees, agents, and customers for feedback. It’s how we make good on our mission: to continue raising the bar for service in auto insurance. 

What You Will Do

Our Customer Service Representatives work closely with our customers, taking ownership for answering questions, creatively solving challenges, taking new loss information and building ongoing relationships. They also process various underwriting-related activities (e.g., policy changes; cancellations), ensuring accuracy and recognizing logical next steps resulting from changes

(e.g., required communications; related tasks). 

While each day will be different, a typical day will involve: 

• Responding with professionalism and appropriate urgency to telephone inquiries (e.g., from those we insure, agents, and/or other parties);
• Having the “right” conversation with customers (right questions, right guidance, right amount of time) that address issues or concerns; 
• Accurately processing various underwriting activities (e.g., changes to policies; payments) and recognizing logical next steps from changes.
• Managing own time to ensure incoming calls and underwriting activities are completed with efficiency, 
• Reviewing own work for quality and accuracy.
• Critically analyzing information to identify discrepancies (i.e., is this right?), question assumptions (why are we doing this?), and identify opportunities for improvement (how can we do better?);
• Communicating and collaborating with team members (in own or other departments) to share information, document processes, resolve issues, and provide support for learning; and 
• Documenting work decisions, actions, and processes.
