Don't Just Study Business. Learn How to Grow and Lead One.

Are you a college student, recent graduate, or aspiring entrepreneur interested in marketing, sales, and business management? Would you like to develop marketing strategies, manage a real marketing budget, and see how your decisions directly influence business growth?

We are an established insurance agency serving the Bay Area for more than 25 years, with offices in Berkeley and Fremont. We are seeking an ambitious individual interested in building a career in sales, marketing, and business leadership.

This is primarily a sales position, but it is not a traditional entry-level sales job. You will also help direct marketing initiatives and manage an assigned marketing budget to generate business for yourself and the entire office. Our goal is to develop the right candidate into a future sales manager across both locations.

What Makes This Opportunity Different Real marketing authority. Develop campaigns, manage an assigned budget within agency guidelines, and measure the return on marketing investments.

Direct sales experience. Turn marketing opportunities into customers through prospecting, cold calling, relationship building, and closing sales. Meeting sales goals is essential.

A path to leadership. As you demonstrate sales performance and sound marketing decisions, you may advance into a role leading sales staff across two offices.
