Regional Sales and Marketing Leader - Atlanta, GA, Nashville, TN, Jackson, MS, Birmingham, AL, Memphis, TN

The term "marketing" has many different connotations within the insurance industry, but when it comes to the broker side often roles are black and white between individual contributions and pure management. The differentiator comes down to how much the marketer is involved in doing deals versus strategic oversight. This position is really a blend of both duties. Its a great opportunity to make an impact in a large portion of the agency's operating group that handles large middle market and risk management accounts in complex verticals like construction, real estate, healthcare and transportation. It also establishes a senior management role that will work closely with commercial sales leaders to analyze where profitable business comes from and create a strategy to recreate successful opportunities and even build out new vertical programs.
