Senior Territory Manager, Independent Agency Channel - Austin TX Territory

About Branch Branch is on a mission to make insurance more accessible, so more people can be covered. We innovate using data, tech, and automation to simplify insurance from start to finish—we eliminated inaccurate quotes in favor of real prices, created a better way to bundle, and cut unnecessary costs in the traditional insurance process. Basically, we’re doing insurance the way it was meant to be. But we didn’t just create the insurance we’ve always wanted, we also created the company we’ve always wanted to work for. As we redefine insurance, we also want to redefine what it means to work in insurance. Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time. Branch is remote first, with most Branchers choosing to work from home. We also have office space in Columbia and Concordia, Missouri as well as Forreston, Illinois.
