Job description

Independent Insurance Agent Agency Owner Model


Mavrix Insurance Services | Remote| All 50 States | 1099 Contract




This isn't a job. It's your agency.


Are you tired of building someone else's book?


Tired of splitting commissions you earned, servicing accounts you didn't get paid to service, and being told what you can and can't sell, all while the company keeps the best part of every deal?


You're not alone. Thousands of captive and independent agents are asking the same question right now:


What if I could just sell and actually keep what I earn?


That's exactly what Mavrix was built for.




What Mavrix Does For You


When you join Mavrix, you're not an employee. You're not on a quota. You're an agency owner, and from day one, we handle everything behind the scenes so you can focus on the one thing that actually grows your income: selling.

No franchise fee. No startup cost. No desk fees.


Multi-carrier access you're not limited to one company's products


Dedicated service team handles back-office, account management, and renewals


Fully remote work from anywhere, all 50 states open


Your book. Your clients. Your business.


Backed by Heffernan Insurance Brokers one of the largest independent brokerages in the U.S.




Who Thrives at Mavrix


This opportunity is built for producers people who are wired to hunt, build relationships, and close. If you're great at selling and done playing small because of the structure around you, you'll fit right in.

Entrepreneurial professionals ready to build something of their own


Requirements

What You Bring


Active P&C and/or Life & Health license (or willingness to obtain)


A producer mindset you sell, we handle the rest

Strong relationship-building and communication skills
