• Consistently meet or exceed sales targets by building strong customer relationships and applying effective, consultative sales techniques.
• Clearly communicate the value and benefits of Kin’s insurance products while addressing customer questions with confidence.
• Leverage company-provided qualified leads and execute consistent follow-up to move customers through the sales funnel to close.
• Partner cross-functionally with underwriters and customer service representatives to ensure a smooth experience from initial inquiry through policy issuance.
• Simplify complex insurance concepts and guide customers toward coverage that best protects their most important assets.

What You’ll Bring

• At least 6 months of P&C insurance experience in a fast-paced sales environment (homeowners, auto, and/or call center experience a plus).
• Active P&C license in your current state of residence.
• Proven track record of closing sales and exceeding targets.
• Ability to build trust quickly through clear, confident communication.
• Comfort adhering to performance metrics, schedules, and training requirements.
• Proficiency with CRM systems and telephone software, including managing multiple platforms simultaneously.
