The opportunity
We are continuing to build our brokerage subsidiary, Elite Insurance Group (EIG), and we’re looking for a Licensed Agency Customer Service Retention Specialist to help homeowners maintain the coverage they need while finding the best possible value across multiple insurance carriers. As a key member of our customer retention team, you’ll work directly with policyholders who are reviewing renewals, considering cancellation, or exploring alternative coverage options.
This role exists because retaining customers through expert guidance, thoughtful policy reviews, and proactive problem solving is critical to delivering long-term value to both our customers and Kin. You’ll combine insurance expertise, empathy, and resourcefulness to help customers make informed decisions while strengthening customer loyalty and satisfaction.
Your responsibilities
Own inbound renewal review conversations with existing policyholders, identifying opportunities to improve value and retain business.
Contact customers who have expressed interest in canceling coverage and conduct retention-focused consultations across multiple carrier options.
Perform coverage counseling and policy reviews to ensure customers understand their protection, pricing, and available alternatives.
Reshop policies with approved carrier partners to identify competitive coverage and pricing solutions.
Resolve customer questions, concerns, and service issues through phone and email interactions.
Create, update, and deliver policy options and documentation for customer review.
Navigate complex customer situations, de-escalate concerns, and identify solutions that balance customer needs with business objectives.
Maintain accurate records, follow-up activities, and policy documentation in applicable systems.
Leverage available tools, resources, and carrier relationships to maximize retention outcomes.
Contribute to the improvement of forms, procedures, training materials, and operational processes when opportunities arise.
Success in this role
In your first 6–12 months at EIG, success is less about checking boxes and more about the impact you create. You’ll use your skills and judgment to take ownership of meaningful work, improve how we operate, and help move EIG’s mission forward. Along the way, you’ll deliver outcomes that make a real difference for both Kinfolk and the homeowners we serve.
By the end of your first year, you should feel confident in your role, trusted as an owner, and proud of the progress you’ve helped make.
Customers considering cancellation are consistently retained through effective policy reviews, coverage counseling, and alternative carrier solutions.
Renewal conversations result in positive customer experiences, increased confidence in coverage decisions, and strong retention outcomes.
Customer issues are resolved efficiently and professionally, with a reputation for empathy, accuracy, and follow-through.
Operational improvements, process updates, or training enhancements have contributed to greater team effectiveness and customer satisfaction.
What you’ll bring

2+ years of brokerage or multi-carrier insurance experience.
1+ year of insurance sales, retention, or customer retention experience.
Experience conducting policy reviews, coverage counseling, and renewal consultations.

We don’t just hire for skills. We hire for alignment. Kinfolk bring diverse perspectives, but we’re united by a shared set of values that shape how we work and how we show up for each other and our customers.
Run through walls, together - Our industry is stuck in the status quo. But Kin is different. We are challengers. Innovators unwavering in our mission to fix insurance for those who need it most. We are changing insurance for good. We roll up our sleeves, take action, and get “impossible” things done every day with grit and teamwork.
Raise the bar. Drop the ego - Attitudes are contagious. Every one of us is responsible for creating the culture we want to work in. High performance. Low drama. Always respectful. Like professional sports teams, we win by working in sync. We show up, work hard, and play to each other’s strengths.
Act like an owner - We are owners, fully accountable for achieving Kin’s mission. That requires positive, proactive, big-picture thinking well beyond our job descriptions. Ask questions, Take ownership. Do the right thing, even when it‘s hard. Because when Kin thrives, so do you. And so do our customers.
Operate lean. Deliver more - We build efficiency into everything we do. Each dollar we save gets reinvested to deliver more to our customers: better pricing, more products, and new innovations. We work smarter by relentlessly prioritizing and using technology, including AI, to multiply our impact. Lean is about focus, not deprivation. Lean isn't a limitation – it's our competitive advantage.
Keep asking ‘What if?’ - We value curiosity. To make insurance better for our customers, we experiment. We embrace insights. And we base decisions on data rather than assumptions. We see setbacks as opportunities for growth and are always learning and improving. Both individually and as a company.
