Insurance Consultant Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a insurance consultant in New York?
You become an insurance consultant in New York by obtaining a license through the New York State Department of Financial Services. Most roles require either a Property and Casualty license, a Life and Health license, or both, earned by passing the relevant state exam. A bachelor's degree in business, finance, or risk management is the standard education baseline. Many consultants also pursue designations such as CPCU or CIC to advance into more specialized or senior roles.
Which companies hire insurance consultants in New York?
Employers hiring insurance consultants in New York right now include EY, PwC, and Aon, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. New York's concentration of global carriers, brokerage firms, and financial institutions makes it one of the deepest hiring markets for this role in the country.
Which New York cities have the most insurance consultant jobs?
New York, Utica, and West Seneca account for the largest share of insurance consultant openings in New York. New York City dominates because of its density of global brokerages, multinational carriers, and large corporate risk departments, while White Plains and Albany attract openings tied to regional carriers, state government programs, and suburban commercial clients that major firms serve from those locations.
Are there remote insurance consultant jobs in New York?
Yes, and they are more available than in many other professional roles. About 60% of insurance consultant openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how much of the work, client calls, coverage analysis, and proposal writing, can be done off-site. Client-facing account management roles tend to be hybrid, while technical or analytical consulting positions are most likely to be fully remote.
How can I get hired as a insurance consultant in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through an insurance associate or account assistant role at a brokerage or carrier, where you work toward your New York Department of Financial Services license while on the job. Large New York employers such as Marsh, Aon, and regional carriers regularly bring in recent graduates through rotational or training programs in their commercial lines and employee benefits practices. A Property and Casualty license, even obtained before starting your first role, gives you a measurable edge over unlicensed candidates.
