Business Development Representative - Insurance Broker Channel

Simplex•Austin, TX

23h•Onsite

About The Position

Our client is transforming home services and eliminating the hassle of homeownership. They pioneered a new category built on relationships woven into the fabric of the communities they serve — offering preventative maintenance, service tasks, and specialty home services that keep properties protected and performing. They're growing fast, expanding into new markets and strategic partner channels — and this hire is central to that growth. The Role We're hiring a Business Development Representative to build and own a pipeline of insurance broker relationships from the ground up. This is a prospecting-first, field-active role — you'll be cold calling independent P&C brokers, showing up at association events, and building a referral network one relationship at a time. But this isn't a simple transactional sell. You'll be articulating a genuinely compelling value proposition to brokers: We give them access to rich homeowner data and maintenance history that helps their customers stay insured — and renew. You need to believe in the pitch, communicate it clearly, and build trust with people who get pitched constantly. The best fit here is someone with positive energy and a consultative style — not a hammer. You bring warmth and credibility to every conversation, not pressure.

Requirements

2–3+ years of experience in sales, business development, or a client-facing role — insurance, real estate, home services, or property-adjacent industries a strong plus
Some exposure to the full sales cycle — you've carried a conversation from cold outreach through a close, even if the deals were modest in size
Comfortable on the phone — cold calling doesn't intimidate you; you're methodical about it and you keep going
Ability to communicate a multi-layered value proposition — you can explain why homeowner data matters to a broker's renewal rates without making it complicated
CRM discipline : HubSpot, Salesforce, or equivalent — you keep your pipeline clean because you understand why it matters
Gritty and consistent : you show up, you follow up, and you don't need someone standing over you to stay on task
Light over heat : you win people over with clarity, curiosity, and genuine enthusiasm — not pressure tactics

Responsibilities

Own outbound prospecting to independent P&C brokers and regional carriers through cold calls, email sequences, LinkedIn, and in-person relationship development
Build and maintain a disciplined pipeline in HubSpot — every contact, activity, and follow-up logged and current
Attend local insurance association events, broker meetups, and networking opportunities to build face-to-face relationships
Clearly articulate value to insurance brokers: homeowner maintenance data that reduces claims risk, supports policy renewals, and adds value to their client relationships
Advance qualified conversations toward partnership agreements, with support from senior leadership on complex or high-priority deals
Bring structured pipeline reporting and activity metrics to weekly BD reviews
