Desired Qualifications

Insurance experience is welcome but not required.

Guardian Service is recruiting a select group of high-potential professionals to help build the next major player in insurance.

Our two-year Business Builder Program is for people who have excelled early in their careers, bring strong analytical skills, and want to turn ideas into results. You’ll work directly with senior leaders on priorities that matter to the company’s growth, taking responsibility for both the thinking and the execution.

Over two years, you’ll work across different functional areas of Guardian Service. Your engagements will reflect your talents, interests, development, and business needs. You could help launch a product, improve sales performance, build a better member experience, or evaluate opportunities to expand into new markets.

Alongside the work, you’ll receive regular feedback, mentorship from a leader outside your reporting line, and opportunities to learn and build relationships with a cohort of talented peers. The goal is to develop the judgment and operating experience to lead a function or build something new within the business.

About the Company

Guardian Service

Independent digital insurance agency with reshopping

Guardian Service provides a digital concierge experience for personal home and auto insurance, combining salaried US-based agents with a platform that taps into 50+ carriers to offer a wide range of quotes. It works by giving customers an initial policy and then using automated reshopping to continuously monitor the market and alert or help them switch if a better rate appears, with the service itself being free and carriers paying commissions on sold policies. The company differentiates itself through its salaried, non-commissioned agent model, ongoing rate monitoring, and a multi-carrier approach that focuses on finding suitable coverage rather than maximizing sales, plus partnerships with real estate agents, financial advisors, and lenders. Its goal is to simplify the insurance process, prevent long-term overpayments, and help customers save on homeowners and auto insurance.
