Oakville

Are you a natural relationship builder who loves turning opportunities into results?

We're looking for motivated, outgoing and results-driven Insurance Sales Representatives to help grow our established Oakville insurance agency.

Company Overview

Gruscyk Insurance & Financial LTD – Desjardins Agency is a local insurance and financial services provider serving clients in Oakville, ON and surrounding communities. As part of the Desjardins network, the agency offers a range of personal and business insurance products, as well as financial solutions tailored to individual needs.

Role Overview

Let's be clear about one thing: We're looking for people who enjoy creating opportunities, meeting new people, developing relationships and taking ownership of their success.

If you're the kind of person who sees a networking event as an opportunity rather than an obligation, who follows up naturally and consistently, and who gets genuine satisfaction from building business, we want to meet you.

At Gruscyk Insurance & Financial Ltd., you'll have the prospect to combine your insurance knowledge with your drive to build relationships and generate new business.

What You'll Be Doing

- In addition to agency generated leads, develop and maintain your own pipeline of qualified prospects.
- Attend local networking events, business groups and community activities to represent the agency and build referral relationships.
- Identify opportunities to grow business through existing client relationships and referrals.
- Consistently follow up with prospects and move opportunities through the sales process.
- Establish sales goals, monitor your results and take ownership of achieving your targets.

Providing Insurance Solutions

- Consult with prospective clients to understand their insurance needs and recommend appropriate coverage.
- Prepare and present quotes for home, auto and other applicable property and casualty insurance products.
- Explain coverage options clearly and confidently, helping clients make informed decisions.
- Build trust through professional, responsive and knowledgeable service.




- Maintain accurate records of prospecting activities, client interactions and sales opportunities.
- Ensure all sales activities comply with applicable licensing and regulatory requirements.

Contributing to Agency Growth

- Collaborate with the agency owner and team to identify new business opportunities.
- Develop creative approaches to prospecting and building community relationships.
- Participate actively in team initiatives and sales development activities.
- Bring forward ideas, take initiative and contribute to a positive, performance-driven culture.

What We're Looking For

- A valid Ontario OTL or RIBO licence is required.
- Previous sales experience, ideally within property and casualty insurance.
- Demonstrated ability to generate leads, build relationships and close sales.
- Exellent communication, interpersonal and negotiation skills.
- Confidence approaching new people and initiating business conversations.
- A proactive, self-motivated approach to sales and business development.
- Excellent organizational skills and consistent follow-through.
- Resilience, persistence and the ability to remain motivated when faced with rejection.
- Strong ethics, professionalism and a commitment to recommending appropriate insurance solutions.

You'll Be a Great Fit If You...

- Are a self-starter. It is in your nature to pick up the phone or pursue an opportunity.
- Love networking. You genuinely enjoy meeting people and creating connections.
- Are motivated by results. Setting goals and achieving them gives you satisfaction.
- Have an entrepreneurial mindset. You think about growing the business, not simply completing tasks.
- Are persistent. You understand that successful sales require effort, patience and follow-through.
- Are accountable. You take responsibility for your activity, performance and results.




- Enjoy being part of a team. You're ambitious about your own success while contributing to the agency's growth.

What We Offer

- Competitive base salary of $50,000–$55,000, depending on experience.
- Commission and performance-based incentives.
- Opportunities to grow your client base and increase your earning potential.
