Zinnia has over $180 billion in assets under administration, serves 100+ carrier clients, 2500 distributors and partners, and over 2 million policyholders.

WHO YOU ARE:

Are you looking for the chance to make a huge impact at a company with a mission to help thousands, potentially millions of people? As a Retention Specialist, you are a motivated individual who embodies our commitment to helping customers navigate the complexities of insurance effortlessly.

  • Personalized Assistance: Become a trusted advisor by understanding each customer’s unique needs and recommending tailored insurance solutions. Your ability to empathize and offer personalized advice will empower customers to make informed decisions.
  • Sales and Renewal Support: Recognize opportunities to promote additional insurance products or policy upgrades based on customers’ needs. Make recommendations to help customers navigate their policy renewal as seamlessly as possible by re-shopping their policy in our marketplace.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with cross-functional and external teams, including sales, underwriters, quoting specialists, and more, to resolve customer inquiries efficiently.
  • Adaptability: Thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment while maintaining a positive and solution-oriented approach.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

  • Sales Acumen: An understanding of sales principles and the ability to identify opportunities to upsell or cross-sell insurance products will be advantageous.
  • Eagerness to Learn: While prior experience in insurance is beneficial, a willingness to learn and grow within the industry is equally valuable. A Bachelor’s degree or relevant experience.
