Clearcover is the smarter car insurance company. We use powerful technology to offer everyday drivers better coverage for less money. We’re proud to be one of the fastest-growing startups in the insurtech market and we’re currently looking to add a few more extraordinary people to our team.

Who is the GM VP of Agency Distribution? 

We are looking for an experienced General Manager, VP of Agency Distribution to lead channel growth by delivering digital insurance product solutions to an evolving agency distribution channel. The GM, VP of Agency Distribution owns P&L responsibility and is expected to have strong operational chops. This is a high visibility role reporting to the Chief Revenue Officer. 

In addition to being responsible for the overall growth and profitability of the channel, you’ll own its growth strategy. We see our independent agent business a bit like a startup within a startup, so you’ll need to approach the business as both a strategist and execution expert, using your passion for analytics and out-of-the-box thinking to drive growth. You’ll identify and set forth key partnership strategies to strengthen existing relationships and develop new ones.

You should approach traditional distribution thinking with a healthy mix of respect and irreverence, applying both creativity and flexibility in developing the channel in a uniquely Clearcover way. You’ll stay curious and current on industry trends and the competitive landscape, always mining for emerging channels.

You’ll be a problem-solver who can work amidst ambiguity and be willing (and able) to roll up your sleeves to get the job done. This will be fun, but it won’t be easy. 

What will you do? 

• P&L Management – Manage a growth-oriented and profitable book of business with and through agency partnerships. 
• Distribution Strategy – Develop the strategic direction of the agency distribution channel and how to partner in a digitally oriented way. 
• Partnership Development - Design and articulate key partnership strategies, negotiate deal terms, manage contracting processes, facilitate integration requirements, and manage onboarding and training activities.

• Agency Economics - Manage and effectively communicate compensation structures that drive desired business results.
• Training & Support Model – Design, develop, and manage training and operational processes that allow us to support and scale the agency channel.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration – Work effectively with members of our product, technology, finance, and operational teams to build key capabilities and support models.
• Emerging Channel Strategy - Develop and maintain broad knowledge of the industry and competitive landscape to develop strategies to help Clearcover lead the way towards the future of agency distribution.
