| Job Description |
What you will be doing:
- Build and own a book of homeowners and commercial property clients across California
- Build referral relationships that feed it: realtors, loan officers, escrow officers, lenders, and attorneys
- Advise clients who are on a deadline: a non-renewal, a closing, or a lender’s requirement
- Take each home or building to standard insurers first, then to surplus lines insurers when needed, and to the FAIR Plan with a difference in conditions policy for homes
- Lay the options side by side, including what each one leaves out, and help the client choose
- Work with our engineers: show them where your time goes so our systems can take that work over
- Help open new lines of coverage and new markets as Latch grows
Experience you will need:
- An active California property and casualty license (required)
- A record of winning new business (you’ve built a book before, or you’re well on your way to one)
- Deep knowledge of California property insurance, including the surplus lines market and the FAIR Plan
- Preference for advising over processing (handing paperwork to a system and spending your day with clients and partners sounds right to you)
- Treat your book like your own business
- Ability to explain coverage in plain language and be honest about what a policy leaves out
- Comfort working remotely and communicating in writing
- Nice to have: Existing referral relationships with realtors, lenders, or escrow officers in California
- Nice to have: Commercial property experience (apartment buildings, mixed-use, industrial, or retail)
- Nice to have: Experience with homes in wildfire areas
- Nice to have: Experience helping a young agency grow, or desire to lead a sales team one day
