As a Commercial Lines Producer, you'll be out in the community building relationships with business owners and growing a book of commercial insurance clients. We believe in working the risk before we ever submit it, which means getting to know each business, understanding its operations and exposures, and presenting carriers with a well prepared submission. You won't just be quoting prices. You'll be a trusted advisor who helps business owners protect their companies, their employees, and their futures. With our full range of lines, you'll also have the opportunity to round out accounts with Employee Benefits, Life, and Health.

What You'll Do

  • Prospect, network, and develop new commercial lines business across the Columbia and mid-Missouri area
  • Meet with business owners to assess operations, identify exposures, and recommend coverage solutions
  • Gather underwriting information and prepare thorough, well documented carrier submissions
  • Present proposals and close new business with a consultative, needs based approach
  • Cross sell and account round with Employee Benefits, Life & Health, and personal lines
  • Partner with our Account Managers to ensure a smooth handoff and excellent ongoing service
  • Stay involved with key accounts at renewal to strengthen relationships and retention
  • Build referral relationships with CPAs, attorneys, bankers, and other local professionals
  • Track activity, pipeline, and results in our agency management and CRM systems

What We're Looking For

  • Active Missouri Property & Casualty and Life & Health licenses (or the ability to obtain them within 90 days of hire)
  • Proven sales success, ideally in commercial insurance, B2B sales, or financial services
  • Working knowledge of commercial coverages such as GL, Commercial Auto, Workers Comp, Property, and Umbrella
  • Self motivated and competitive, with the discipline to manage your own pipeline and schedule
  • Strong relationship building, presentation, and negotiation skills
  • Comfort networking and getting involved in the local business community
  • Organized, detail oriented, and comfortable with CRM and agency management tools
  • High school diploma required; a degree in business, finance, or a related field is a plus

Why Join Us

  • Competitive base salary plus commission on new and renewal business
  • Access to multiple carriers and a full range of commercial, benefits, and life products
  • Support from experienced Account Managers so you can stay focused on selling
  • Reimbursement for licensing, designations, and continuing education
  • The opportunity to grow with an independent agency that's actively expanding
