Head of Sales - Commercial Insurance Disruptor

$200K-$350K OTE + 0.5-1% Equity

Experience: 5+ years Commercial Insurance sales

We are working with one of the fastest-growing commercial insurance brokerages in the market. They have grown from 5 customers with $2K monthly premium to over 3,000 insurers with $3M monthly premium in 18 months.

They are building the future of commercial insurance — tech-enabled to drive operations and insurance-focused to serve clients. This is your chance to architect the entire sales function at a company poised to explode and scale to $10M monthly premium by Q1 2026.

Why this is career rocket fuel:

  • Build something legendary - You’re creating what comes next, not managing what exists. Think 50 people doing what traditional brokerages need 500 people to do.
  • Elite team building - Scale from 4 producers writing $3M/month to 8-10 elite producers writing $10M/month.
  • AI-powered sales machine - Work with embedded engineering to build AI tools that eliminate busywork (not relationships) and make your team unstoppable.
  • Meaningful ownership - Real equity upside (0.5-1%) in a company with a clear path to $120M annual premium.

What you\'ll be doing:

  • Build and manage a lean team of elite P&C producers supported by embedded engineering
  • Own recruiting & hiring top talent from insurance, tech sales, and finance backgrounds
  • Create scalable playbooks that work across different producer backgrounds
  • Drive performance management - review calls, coach teams, ensure consistent execution
  • Handle deal intervention - step in to save deals and close when needed

What they\'re looking for:

  • 5+ years crushing it in commercial insurance sales yourself
  • Experience building, managing or leading P&C producer teams
  • Proven track record scaling sales operations from early stage
  • Can close deals - you\'re the person they call when a big deal is going sideways

Perfect background:

  • Scaled a producer team at a brokerage, MGA, or carrier
  • Built an independent agency from the ground up
  • Led sales at a high-growth insurance company

Not a fit if:

  • You need perfect processes before you can operate
  • You want to manage from a distance
  • You\'ve only worked at established companies with unlimited resources
  • Meals covered while at work
  • Development budget and flexible PTO
  • Real equity upside in a proven, scaling business
