Tagrisk Insurance Services | Huntington Beach, CA | Full-Time | Outside Sales
Build Your Career in Restaurant & Hospitality Insurance
Tagrisk Insurance Services is looking for an ambitious, relationship-driven Hospitality Risk Specialist to join our team. This is an outside sales position and essentially an Insurance Agent role, focused on developing new business and building long-term relationships with restaurant and hospitality business owners.
For more than 35 years, Tagrisk has specialized in restaurant insurance, bar and nightclub insurance, hospitality insurance, and commercial insurance. We help business owners understand their risks, identify coverage gaps, protect their businesses, and develop insurance programs tailored to their individual needs.
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys sales, networking, developing relationships, and helping business owners solve problems. You don't have to be an insurance expert on day one. We are looking for someone with the drive, professionalism, communication skills, and determination to develop a successful career in commercial insurance.
What You'll Do:
As a Hospitality Risk Specialist, you will be responsible for developing new business and becoming a trusted insurance resource for restaurant and hospitality business owners.
Your responsibilities will include:
Develop new business through outside sales, networking, referrals, prospecting, and relationship development.
Build relationships with restaurant owners, bar owners, nightclub operators, hospitality businesses, and other commercial business owners.
Identify prospective clients who need restaurant insurance, hospitality insurance, commercial insurance, workers' compensation, general liability, liquor liability, property insurance, and other business coverage.
Meet with business owners to understand their operations, risks, current insurance programs, and coverage needs.
Educate prospects about potential insurance coverage gaps and risk exposures.
Develop customized insurance solutions in partnership with Tagrisk's experienced insurance team.
Prepare and present insurance proposals to prospective clients.
Work with insurance carriers and underwriters to obtain competitive coverage and pricing.
Develop a personal book of business and build recurring commission income as accounts are earned and retained.
Maintain consistent follow-up with prospects throughout the sales process.
Develop referral relationships with business professionals and organizations that serve the restaurant and hospitality industries.
Attend industry events, trade shows, networking events, and other opportunities to build relationships and generate leads.
Maintain accurate prospect and client information and follow through on commitments.
Continue developing your knowledge of commercial P&C insurance and hospitality risk management.
What We're Looking For:
We're looking for a motivated salesperson who enjoys meeting people, developing relationships, and building a business.
You should have:
Strong sales, prospecting, networking, and relationship-building skills.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Confidence communicating with business owners and decision-makers.
A professional, consultative approach to sales.
Strong organizational and follow-up skills.
The ability to work independently and manage your own territory and sales pipeline.
Persistence and the ability to handle rejection while continuing to pursue opportunities.
A genuine interest in helping businesses understand and manage risk.
A willingness to learn commercial insurance and the unique risks facing restaurants and hospitality businesses.
A valid California driver's license and reliable transportation.
Insurance experience is a plus, but not necessarily required for the right candidate. Experience in outside sales, B2B sales, restaurant/hospitality sales, financial services, commercial services, or another relationship-based sales environment is highly valued.
An active California Property & Casualty insurance license is preferred. Candidates who do not currently hold a license must be willing to obtain one.
This is a true sales opportunity with the potential to build a significant recurring book of business.
As you earn accounts and grow your book of business, your compensation can increase. Successful salespeople at Tagrisk can reach $100,000+ in annual compensation within approximately 2-4 years, depending on sales performance, accounts earned, and book of business growth.
The opportunity is designed for someone who wants to build a long-term career and income stream in commercial insurance, rather than simply take a sales job.
Why Tagrisk? At Tagrisk, we believe insurance is about more than selling a policy.
We specialize in helping restaurants and hospitality businesses understand their unique risks and make informed decisions about protecting their businesses.
For more than 35 years, our reputation has been built on Integrity, Innovation, and Industry expertise, along with personal relationships and responsive service.
As a Hospitality Risk Specialist, you'll have the opportunity to develop your own relationships and book of business while having the support and expertise of an established insurance agency behind you.
If you are a motivated salesperson who enjoys meeting business owners, building relationships, and wants to develop a career in restaurant and hospitality insurance, we'd like to hear from you.
