Job Overview

Elite Insurance Group | Fully Remote | Spanish Speaking

Position Summary

Elite Insurance Group is seeking a licensed, results-driven Insurance Sales Representative to generate new business and advise clients across personal and/or commercial insurance lines.

This role is ideal for a highly motivated producer who is hungry to grow, confident asking for the sale, and willing to put in the activity required to achieve ambitious production goals. The right candidate will either bring an established book of business or referral network—or have the drive and work ethic to prospect, build relationships, and consistently generate their own opportunities.

This is a self-generated sales role. Producers are responsible for building and maintaining their own pipeline through referrals, networking, cold outreach, community involvement, strategic partnerships, and existing relationships. Producers are expected to work toward a goal of $40,000 or more in written premium each month.

Salary Range: $40,000.00 per year
