Looking for a great place to work? Want an employer who values employees, work/life balance, and giving back to the community?
VanScoter Insurance Agency is a growing independent insurance agency serving individuals, families, and small businesses throughout the Rochester area.
We're looking for a motivated, outgoing Insurance Sales Advisor to join our team.
Let's be upfront: This is a sales position, and that's intentional!
If you enjoy talking with people, building relationships, achieving goals, and being rewarded for your efforts, this could be a great fit.
No insurance experience? That's okay! We're more interested in your attitude, initiative, and willingness to learn. We'll train the right person.
What You'll Be Doing
Your focus will be growing our agency by selling personal and small commercial insurance policies.
- Respond to incoming leads, prepare quotes, and present insurance proposals.
- Review existing customer accounts to identify cross-selling opportunities.
- Reconnect with previous prospects and former customers to generate new business.
- Consistently follow up with prospects and work toward individual sales goals.
- Conduct phone and virtual appointments, including recording personalized video proposals.
This is a dedicated sales position, not a customer service role. Routine policy servicing, claims handling, and general administrative work are handled by our service team.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is:
- Sales-oriented and personable: Enjoys talking with people, building relationships, and achieving goals.
- Self-motivated and organized: Takes initiative, manages multiple opportunities, and follows through.
- Coachable and positive: Willing to learn, receptive to feedback, reliable, and enjoys being part of a team.
- Technology-savvy: Comfortable working across multiple software programs, browser tabs, and digital tools throughout the day.
- Quick to learn: Able to adapt to new software, technology, and processes.
- A strong communicator: Comfortable with phone conversations, virtual meetings, and recording video presentations.
- A team player with a sense of humor: We work hard, but we also like to have fun!
You don't need to know our software systems when you start, but strong computer skills and an aptitude for learning technology are essential.
Candidates must be willing and able to obtain a New York State Property & Casualty Insurance License.
