Protection Advisor

We are hiring a new Agent / Protection Advisor

Please read this carefully and completely before applying.

The Protection Advisor acts as the face of Holley Insurance in the community and with prospective new clients. This role is tasked with growing the personal lines and commercial book of business by maximizing the Holley Insurance sales process and applying these strategies daily.

To be clear, this is a SALES position. This means actively pursuing new business opportunities. Our agency generates some new business opportunities. However, to be successful in this position, you will also need to work to generate opportunities yourself. This includes calling on lost business, unsold quotes, and monoline business for account rounding, attending networking activities, and building relationships with centers of influence and current agency clients.

This position requires working inside AND outside of the office in order to be successful.

This is a Full Time Position located in our Rocky Mount or Roanoke office.

Holley Insurance was founded in 2000, and retains a core base of loyal clients. We have been blessed with steady growth in the business and are committed to seeing that continue through effective retention strategies coupled with attracting a steady stream of new clients. We have locations in Roanoke and Rocky Mount, VA.

Being an Independent Agency, we have multiple companies to choose from. So, we have many options to provide peace of mind to our preferred market clients throughout Virginia by matching them with the right Home, Auto, Business, and Life insurance products.

We serve our clients first while representing our carrier partners well in order to provide the RIGHT insurance product at the BEST price. We are committed to our CORE VALUES of integrity, professionalism, friendliness, efficiency, and teamwork. We have big, ambitious dreams that we work hard toward achieving all while having a great time!

We prefer applicants who want to make $100,000 a year, but realize that won’t happen overnight. This is not a get rich quick opportunity. First year compensation can average $60,000 based on the right skill set and willingness to work hard to achieve our shared goals. We also include health insurance and a generous Paid Time Off policy.

Our clients deserve to be able to reach us when they expect us to be available. Our normal business hours are 9-5 Monday through Friday. Also, we are a team that has each other’s back. We rely on consistent availability during our open hours. However, we also understand you have commitments outside of work. You will receive Paid Time Off from day one, and flexibility as needed as long as your expected work product meets or exceeds agency standards.

Why you would want this job.

• You are outgoing and upbeat
• You look forward to meeting and getting to know new people
• You have a positive attitude
• You thrive when challenged and like working hard to achieve your goals
• You enjoy solving problems
• You are a sales ROCK STAR!!!

This is where we need you to be real honest with yourself. You need to decide if this job is truly a good fit for YOU. If you are most comfortable with a job where you are simply paid for being present from 9-5 and doing the tasks assigned to you, this is NOT the job for you. You need to demonstrate a desire to continually develop your skills, while making a positive contribution to our team and our clients.

You really do need to understand how rewarding it is to do HARD work and accomplish DIFFICULT tasks.

An insurance license or insurance experience are not needed in order to qualify for the position initially, but you will be expected to get a Property & Casualty and Life & Health insurance license quickly. You also need to be able to pass a background check and reference checks. Seriously, we will do them. If that is going to be embarrassing for either of us, you can stop reading now.

Still there? Awesome.
