Role Overview
This flexible position can be pursued on a full-time, part-time, or secondary basis, and is completely remote as a Field Underwriter. You will have the freedom to establish your own hours and work within the time zones and states that are most convenient for you. The Field Underwriter will interact with families seeking coverage, evaluate risk, and identify the most suitable coverage options for each family. Responsibilities include submitting applications to the most fitting carriers and assisting in the underwriting process. Our brokerage generates qualified and compliant leads for agents through direct mail, call-ins, and digital platforms, removing the necessity for cold calling. The Field Underwriter is expected to deliver exceptional customer service while ensuring high accuracy and attention to detail.

Compensation Structure
This is a 1099 role with commission rates starting at 80% of Annual Premium Value (APV) and reaching up to 130% APV, along with bonuses and potential equity ownership. Once you reach a promotional commission rate, it becomes permanent; there are no requirements to maintain it. Agents earn commissions based on their production levels and receive overrides on their agency's policies based on the difference between their contract rate and the rates of other agents in their agency. Commissions are paid in advance: 75% upon issuance and 25% in months 10, 11, and 12. Agents can achieve legal ownership at the 105% contract level with six writers without any capital contribution required. There are no income caps or minimum quotas. New, average part-time agents usually earn between $3,000 and $5,000 monthly in commission for 15-20 hours of work per month (approximately six policies), which equals around $70,000 annually. Unlicensed agents with no prior experience often start part-time on their own schedule before transitioning to full-time after training. Full-time average agents earn between $15,000 and $17,000 monthly in deposits (15-20 placed policies), totaling $150,000 to $200,000 per year. Passive agency income would be in addition to these personal production averages. The brokerage and carriers also offer bonuses and reward trips.
