The Opportunity

It is all about learning and growing.

Our Licensed Insurance Sales role may be a new career for you. There’s a lot to learn, but the journey is mapped out and USAA is willing to invest in you! Our comprehensive, fully paid six-month training program includes all training materials, class discussions, hands-on training, e-learning modules, and the instructor led guidance will help you to support our membership independently. We also pay for all licensing costs!

Our in-office development program provides you the training you need on USAA products and the encouragement to create a proactive and independent support style to service our membership. After six months in-office, you’ll have the opportunity to work offsite 2 days a week. The actual onsite days are settled between each employee and their manager.

We are currently seeking dedicated Property & Casualty (P&C) active producer/agents with an ACTIVE P&C producer agent license for future insurance sales opportunities in January and February 2025.

• Member-Centric Closer: While sales is in your title, integrity is in your nature. That means you sincerely care that our members get exactly the quality products and services they need to embrace today and confidently pursue tomorrow.

What you’ll do:

• Facilitate the member experience by answering phone calls, emails, and other requests from members.
• Apply developing knowledge of personal lines’ insurance to assist members with foundational to moderately complex quotes, binding new business, rating, policy, billing, payment, underwriting, contract and coverage provisions, and premium changes for insurance products and services. Also, maintain respective trailing documents for all states.
• Identify, assess and understand member needs and consistently provide complete and accurate advice and solutions for insurance products and services. Provide detailed issue diagnosis while minimizing transfers, customer concerns and call backs.
• Efficiently operate in a contact center environment and navigate multiple systems/programs while maintaining an engaging member interaction that occurs across multiple channels.
• Maintain required Property & Casualty (P&C) licenses and state registrations.
• Ensure risks associated with business activities are effectively identified, measured, monitored, and controlled in accordance with risk and compliance policies and procedures.

What you have:

• High School Diploma or GED equivalent
• 1 year of customer service experience in insurance, financial services and/or relevant direct customer service and/or sales experience
• Currently active Property and Casualty or Personal Lines license in your current state of residence/or state of hire and ability to acquire additional licenses for other states as needed
