Are you great at sales and ready for your next career?
At Verge Insurance Group, we’re looking for a motivated sales professional who wants to bring their sales experience into the insurance industry and build a long-term career.
You don’t need insurance experience. We can teach you insurance. What we need you to bring is the ability and desire to sell.
If you know how to build relationships, create opportunities, follow up consistently, overcome objections and ask for the business, we want to talk to you.
You may come from automotive sales, telecommunications, financial services, business development, retail, hospitality or another sales-focused industry. What matters most to us is that you’ve demonstrated an ability to sell, you enjoy working with people, and you’re motivated to grow.
Why Insurance?
Insurance gives great salespeople the opportunity to develop something more than their next sale.
As you develop your insurance knowledge and client base, you’ll build long-term relationships, help individuals and businesses protect what they’ve worked hard to create, generate referrals and develop a growing book of business.
We’ll provide the training and support to help you learn the insurance industry. You bring the sales experience, drive, confidence and willingness to learn.
What You’ll Do
As you progress through your training and develop as an Insurance Broker, you’ll:
- Prospect and generate new business opportunities
- Build relationships with prospective and existing clients
- Follow up on leads and turn opportunities into clients
- Learn how to identify client needs and insurance exposures
- Gather information required to obtain insurance quotations
- Work with insurance companies and underwriters
- Prepare and present insurance solutions and proposals
- Explain coverage options clearly and confidently
- Ask for referrals and develop your professional network
- Identify appropriate cross-selling opportunities
- Work closely with our account management and service teams
- Build and retain a growing book of business
- Develop relationships within the local business community
What We’re Looking For
Sales experience is important to us. Insurance experience is not.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Has previous sales, business development or customer acquisition experience
- Is comfortable prospecting and starting conversations with new people
- Understands that good sales is about building trust, not simply closing a transaction
- Can confidently ask for the business
- Follows up consistently and doesn’t let opportunities disappear
- Is comfortable working toward goals and measurable results
- Handles rejection without losing momentum
- Is competitive, self-motivated and accountable
- Has strong verbal and written communication skills
- Is organized and able to manage multiple opportunities
- Enjoys building relationships and meeting recent people
- Is curious and eager to learn
- Wants to continually improve their sales skills
- Is interested in building a long-term career, not simply finding their next job
Previous insurance experience is an asset, but it is not required. Strong sales skills are.
What We’ll Teach You
You don’t need to arrive knowing insurance.
We’ll help you develop the technical knowledge needed to become a successful Insurance Broker, including:
- Personal and commercial insurance fundamentals
- Insurance coverage, limits and deductibles
- Risk identification and exposure analysis
- Quoting and gathering underwriting information
- Working with insurance companies and underwriters
- Account servicing and client relationship management
- Preparing and presenting insurance proposals
- Renewal and retention strategies
- Cross-selling and identifying additional client needs
- Building a professional book of business
As your knowledge and experience grow, so will your responsibilities and opportunities.
