If you're motivated by personal growth, enjoy developing others and believe your earning potential should reflect the value you create, we'd welcome the opportunity to speak with you.

As an Agency Development Leader, you'll partner with one of the nation's most respected voluntary benefits organizations to build and grow your own business while helping develop a team of successful professionals. This is an independent contractor (1099) opportunity designed for individuals who thrive in an entrepreneurial environment and enjoy building lasting relationships within the business community.

You'll have access to comprehensive training, mentorship, proven business development systems, recruiting support, marketing resources and experienced local leadership committed to helping you grow your business.

What You'll Do:

As an Agency Development Leader, you will:

• Recruit, interview, and develop talented professionals who are committed to serving the business community.
• Coach, mentor, and support individuals through hands-on field training, professional development and ongoing business coaching.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with business owners, executives, human resources professionals, brokers, and community leaders.
• Consult with employers to help them strengthen their employee benefits programs through education and customized solutions.
• Lead team meetings, training sessions, and professional development initiatives that encourage accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
• Develop strategic benefit plan designs that support sustainable growth and long-term success for new accounts.

What We're Looking For:

Successful candidates are:

• Entrepreneurial and self-motivated
• Passionate about coaching and developing others
• Strong communicators who enjoy building relationships
• Goal-oriented with a high level of personal accountability
• Humble enough to seek coaching, confident enough to apply it and resilient enough to persevere through challenges
• Professional, organized, and adaptable
• Comfortable working independently while collaborating with a supportive leadership team
• Committed to continuous personal and professional growth

Previous experience in sales leadership, business development, employee benefits, insurance, financial services, payroll, human resources, recruiting, or business-to-business sales is beneficial but not required.

What You'll Receive:

This opportunity provides access to:

• Comprehensive leadership and business development training
• One-on-one mentorship from experienced local sales leaders
