How to become an insurance account manager?

The qualifications to start a career as an insurance account manager include at least a high school diploma or GED certificate. Many employers expect account managers to be licensed insurance agents. Employers frequently prefer applicants who have a college degree in a subject such as business administration or accounting. Since part of this job involves creating relationships with clients and customers, you need strong communication and sales skills. If you work in a larger agency, you may oversee a team of assistants who can handle administrative, clerical, and sales tasks for you.
