Surround Insurance
Chief of Staff
Why this is a great job
The company’s very early, but the co-founders have a bunch of industry experience and it seems like you’d be doing anything and everything in this role. If you want to build something from the beginning, this could be your ticket.
The nitty gritty
Company website: www.surroundins.com
Who you’d be working for: Jonathan (CEO) and Katie (COO)
Come be the right hand person for the co-founders as we literally build an insurance company. This role is a general product role – regardless of your product background, you’ll be able to use the skills you have and build some new ones on the fly.
We’re a startup and we’re scrappy – everyone does what needs doing and we have a huge emphasis on execution. Some examples of potential tasks for this position:
Pulling together a group of potential users to quickly test a product feature idea
Signing up distribution partners to sell our product in a new market
Licensing our agency in a new state so we can expand our business
Analyzing information from service calls to design new ways to interact with our customers
And, generally, helping us attack the massive to do lists every startup has.
What we’re looking for in applicants
The willingness and ability to pass the insurance agent exams in the first few months on the job, at our expense, of course. (Everyone answers the phone, everyone talks to customers – we need you licensed for that!)
Scrappiness, gumption, fire in your belly – whatever you want to call it. A drive to get things done.
Demonstrated ability to execute beautifully on complicated projects with multiple stakeholders in prior work experience – no analysis paralysis here!
Knowledge of how the insurance industry operates from prior work experience at an insurance agency, an insurance or reinsurance company, a vendor to the insurance industry, an insurance regulatory body or similar.
We're high energy, get things done people. We believe there's no time for politics and no space for big egos. If you want to break new ground with a winning team, come join us!
