Job Placement · Insurance

The bench is retiring faster than you can rebuild it.

A generation of underwriters and producers is aging out, and the experienced people left are employed and quietly fielding offers. We place commercial lines underwriters, producers, claims leaders, and actuaries in 23-35 days at roughly 50% less than contingency firms.

The Real Cost of a Slow Search

What does that open role actually cost your organization?

400,000+
Insurance workers expected to retire this decade
The experience leaving the industry far outpaces the talent entering it. The seasoned candidates you need are passive, and reaching them takes proactive sourcing.
$9,000+
Per month absorbed per unfilled underwriting seat
A commercial lines underwriter at roughly $105K is about $9,000 a month. Every month the seat is open, accounts go unquoted and renewals get rushed.
2-4 weeks
Window before an experienced candidate accepts another offer
Licensed, experienced insurance talent is scarce and heavily courted. A 90-day search is always fishing in a smaller pond than the one you started with.

How It Works

From open role to placed hire in three steps

01
Discovery call

We learn your organization, the role, and what a strong candidate actually looks like in your environment. 15 minutes. No fluff.

02
Active sourcing

We go direct to passive candidates - professionals who are not on job boards but are quietly open to the right opportunity. This is where most searches fail.

03
Shortlist review

You receive 3-5 pre-screened candidates. No stacks of resumes. No wasted interviews. You meet candidates who have already been qualified against your specific criteria.

What You Get

Three things every organization wants - and most placement firms do not offer

Bonus 01No contingency fees. Ever.

Common objection: "We already work with contingency recruiters."

Milestone-based pricing replaces the standard 20-25% contingency fee, and total cost is roughly 50% less. For a $105,000 commercial lines underwriter placement, that difference is $10,500-$15,750 kept in your budget versus a contingency arrangement.

Bonus 0245-day replacement guarantee at no charge.

Common objection: "What if the placement doesn't work out?"

If the hire does not work out within 45 days of their start date for any performance-related reason, we conduct a replacement search at no additional charge. Our guarantee is longer than most contingency firms and is built into every engagement.

Bonus 03A curated shortlist. Not a resume stack.

Common objection: "We have used recruiters before and wasted time on bad candidates."

You will not sort through 20 resumes hoping one sticks. Your dedicated search specialist builds a shortlist of 3-5 candidates who have been screened against your specific criteria. You only meet people who are genuinely qualified. The first interview is a real conversation, not a screening exercise.

The Math on Waiting

Every week that role stays open is a decision you are making.

An open underwriting or production seat does not just sit idle. Submissions go unquoted, renewals get rushed, and revenue that should be bound walks to a competing carrier or agency. An underwriter seat open for 90 days can cost an agency lost new business, strained renewals, and roughly $27,000 in absorbed overhead before the search even ends.

The Talent Window

The best candidates are only available for a few weeks.

The best underwriters, producers, and claims leaders are employed, performing well, and contacted constantly. When one opens up to a move, the decision window is two to three weeks, and the offer usually comes from whoever was already in front of them. A posting-and-waiting search misses that person every time.

No commitment. We will tell you exactly what we can do for your search and what it costs.

FAQ

Common questions

What roles do you place?

Commercial lines underwriters, producers, claims managers, actuaries, account managers, and other carrier and agency roles across personal and commercial lines.

How is this different from a staffing agency?

We are not a staffing agency. This is direct permanent placement with milestone-based pricing. You hire the candidate directly. We are not placing temps or contractors.

How does milestone-based pricing work?

Payments are tied to defined milestones in the search process rather than a lump-sum contingency fee at the end. Total cost is roughly 50% less than a standard contingency arrangement. Exact structure is covered on your discovery call.

What does the 45-day guarantee cover?

If the placed candidate does not work out within 45 days of their start date for any performance-related reason, we conduct a replacement search at no additional charge.

How quickly can you start a search?

Typically within one week of your discovery call. We begin active sourcing immediately after alignment on the role profile and compensation range.
