About the Opportunity
Partner with one of the fastest-growing fintech startups in the U.S! At Jerry, we’re on a mission to help car owners save time and money on one of their most expensive and high maintenance assets. Since launching our mobile app in 2019, we have amassed over 5M customers, enabling customers to quickly select the best insurance coverage for them.
We are looking for an Independent Insurance Agent to kickstart our local agent channel in the Chicago region as an independent business owner operating under your own license. You’ll grow your business through local partnerships to bring in warm leads, community marketing, and referral relationships — backed by Jerry’s technology, suite of 55 carrier partners
