• Up sell & cross sell: work with your colleagues to find and follow-through on up-sell and cross-sell opportunities.
• Customer service: ensure that you and your designated sales and service team provide effective and efficient customer service.
• Plus (the fine print): you’ll follow organization policies and procedures, sales and service standards and established workflows. You’ll ensure quality control through proper file documentation and maintenance. You’ll maintain confidentiality and be an all-around awesome member of our team.

• You’re a client service advocate. You’re passionate about delivering an exceptional level of customer service and support. 
• You’re ready to throw all stereotypes of “insurance” out the window and challenge the status-quo. 
• You’re smart. You understand business and people.
• You’re good with people, even on the tough days. 
• You’re team oriented. You maintain positive relationships with your colleagues—and you enjoy it. You’re that person everyone can depend on to pay attention to details, to make deadlines, to be accurate and complete when interacting clients, colleagues and carriers.
• You love to learn. You’re earnest about improving and pursuing professional development.
• You can adapt—because our industry changes constantly and so do the needs of our clients. You’re good at staying on your toes. 
• You’re ready for a meaningful change. No more corporate vanilla structure for you. (Yes, an insurance company really just said that.)
