Build Your Own Business With the Support of an Established Industry Leader
Are you looking for more than just a sales job?
At Senior Benefit Services (SBS), we help motivated individuals build long-term, rewarding businesses serving seniors and Medicare beneficiaries. As an independent agent, you'll have the freedom of business ownership while leveraging the systems, support, technology, and resources of an organization that has been helping agents succeed for more than 50 years.
Unlike many insurance opportunities where agents are expected to figure everything out on their own, SBS provides exclusive lead opportunities, mentorship, marketing support, advanced technology, and access to more than 50 insurance carriers.
Even more unique, many new agents have the opportunity to receive an existing block of clients to serve through SBS agency acquisitions. Rather than starting from scratch, you may begin with established client relationships that can lead to referrals, retention opportunities, and additional sales.
At SBS, We Make Medicare Easy® for both the clients we serve and the agents who partner with us.
What You'll Do
- Meet with Medicare-eligible individuals and seniors to help them evaluate their insurance options
- Educate clients on Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, Life Insurance, and other health protection products
- Build trusted relationships through consultative conversations
- Service existing clients and assist with policy reviews, renewals, and coverage questions
- Leverage company-provided leads and client opportunities to grow your book of business
- Develop referral relationships within your community

Tips for Your Independent Agent Job Search
Tailor your resume to commission-driven results
Independent agent roles are performance-focused, so your resume needs to show outcomes, not just duties. Highlight client retention rates, new accounts opened, and revenue generated in previous roles. Hiring managers want proof you can build a book of business independently.
Get licensed before you apply
Most independent agent openings in insurance and financial services require a state-issued license before day one. Research which license your target role demands, whether that's property and casualty, life and health, or Series 6 or 63, and complete it before submitting applications.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists independent agent openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Target companies with captive versus independent structures
Some employers want agents who sell only their products, while others want fully independent contractors representing multiple carriers. Knowing which structure a company uses before you apply lets you frame your experience and expectations accurately in your cover letter and interview.
Prepare a territory or market plan for interviews
Many hiring managers for independent agent roles will ask how you plan to generate leads and grow a client base in their territory. Walk in with a brief, specific plan covering your prospecting strategy, local networks, and any existing relationships that could translate into early business.
Negotiate your contract structure, not just your rate
Independent agent offers often involve commission splits, chargebacks, and renewal schedules that matter more than the headline rate. Before accepting, ask how commissions are paid, whether chargebacks apply if a client cancels early, and what support or leads the company provides.
Independent Agent Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most independent agents?
The most active employers for independent agents right now are Senior Benefit Services, 4Leaf Services, and AYS, and the most openings are in Missouri, Texas, and Kansas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand tends to be highest in insurance, real estate, and financial services across those markets.
How many independent agent jobs are remote?
About 88% of independent agent openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, though availability varies significantly by industry. Sales-focused roles in insurance and financial services are most likely to offer remote flexibility, while real estate and territory-based logistics roles typically require in-person or local presence.
How do you become an independent agent?
Start by identifying the industry you want to work in, since insurance, real estate, and financial services each have different licensing requirements. Complete the required state or federal licensing exam for your chosen field. Build a network of potential clients or referral partners before you start, and research whether you want to work with a single company or represent multiple providers. Applying to entry-level or trainee agent roles is a common first step if you lack prior sales experience.
Can you get hired as an independent agent with no experience?
Yes, many companies hire independent agents with no direct experience, particularly in insurance and financial services, where they provide product training and licensing support. What matters most at the entry level is a demonstrated ability to build relationships, communicate clearly, and work without close supervision. Any background in retail sales, customer service, or community outreach can strengthen your application significantly.
What does the independent agent interview process look like?
Most independent agent interviews involve an initial phone screen to assess your sales mindset and communication style, followed by one or two in-person or video interviews with a regional manager or hiring director. Expect scenario-based questions about how you would prospect for clients, handle objections, and close. Some companies include a role-play exercise or ask you to present a brief territory or lead-generation plan before making an offer.
Where can I find and apply to independent agent jobs?
You can find and apply to independent agent jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience, preferred industry, and location, then apply directly to each opening that fits. No separate signup is needed to apply.
