Health Benefits Business and Individual

Independent Employer Benefits Representative
American Forward Impact (AFI) | Flexible schedule | Independent, commission-based opportunity
Role summary
AFI helps business owners review healthcare-benefit options for their teams. With small-group health insurers proposing steep increases for 2027, owners have a pressing reason to run the numbers before accepting a renewal.
As an Independent Employer Benefits Representative, you’ll start conversations with businesses, learn what they need, and work with the AFI team to develop and present appropriate options. You’ll build your own book of business with the support of training, prospecting resources, and a team that helps you close business.
Success in this role means consistently reaching out to businesses, earning their trust, gathering the information needed for a benefits review, following through on opportunities, and building lasting employer relationships. The role is central to AFI’s goal of helping businesses and their employees find better healthcare-benefit options.
Responsibilities
Connect with business owners and decision makers to discuss their current healthcare-benefit costs and needs.
Explain AFI’s benefits review process and gather the information needed to explore options.
Work with the AFI team to move opportunities from the first conversation through presentation and enrollment.
Follow up with prospects and employer clients, maintain accurate records, and support long-term relationships.
Complete training and stay current on AFI’s offerings and processes.
Build a personal book of business through consistent outreach and service.
Qualifications
Strong communication, listening, and follow-through skills.
Comfort starting conversations with business owners and learning a new approach to healthcare benefits.
Ability to work independently while collaborating with a team.
Experience in insurance, healthcare, sales, customer service, HR, or business development is valuable.
Individual health coverage, ACA, or ICHRA experience is especially interesting as AFI explores bringing work it currently outsources in house.
Relevant licenses or certifications are welcome. Requirements for specific products or activities will be discussed before taking on that work.
Compensation
This is an independent, commission-based opportunity, not a salaried position. Representatives can build a book of business that earns substantial, ongoing monthly commissions on qualifying accounts. AFI provides training and a team that helps you close business.
