📋 Description

• We’re hiring a Head of Carrier Strategy & Network Partnerships to lead and scale one of the most critical areas of the business: our carrier relationships and the launch of the COVU Network. • You’ll start by consolidating carrier appointments across our acquired agencies, negotiate improved terms and access, and build the operational layer that enables agencies in our network to scale under one roof. • You’ll be the quarterback for everything carrier-facing—partner success, onboarding flows, economics, and integration. • As the network scales, you’ll help lay the groundwork for a high-leverage growth ecosystem that unlocks distribution, cross-sell, and platform dominance.

🎯 Requirements

• 6–10+ years in carrier relations, distribution strategy, commercial insurance, or partnerships at an agency, carrier, or insurtech • Proven track record of executing with speed, accountability, and attention to detail • Comfortable negotiating appointments, onboarding producers, managing compliance • Deep understanding of how insurance distribution works —from appetite to quoting to commissions • Strong internal ownership mindset—you push things forward, unblock yourself, and get things done • Comfortable operating with limited structure, building playbooks from scratch, and scaling what works • Bonus Points: Experience scaling a network, marketplace, or producer onboarding program • Familiarity with AMS/CRM systems and carrier integration tooling • Exposure to MGA formation, program business, or risk analytics (plus, not required)
