A well-established, privately held insurance agency is seeking a Real Estate Relationship Manager to join its Real Estate P&C department. This role manages and grows a book of middle-market to large P&C insurance clients within the real estate sector, with a strong focus on client retention and relationship development. You'll serve as a key liaison between clients and insurance carriers, ensuring excellent service and smooth execution of client strategies.
This is a relationship-first role — not heavy cold-calling — centered on managing "house accounts" generated through leadership relationships, agency initiatives, and internal referrals. You'll work closely with Account Executives and Producers to retain and grow client relationships, close referred opportunities, and ensure clients stay engaged year-round.

Manage technical aspects of the book, including policy review and program design
Attend pre-renewal meetings, client events, trade shows, and networking functions
Generate qualified leads and referrals from existing clients
Build and manage relationships with vendors, influencers, and decision-makers
Participate in strategy discussions for VIP accounts
Resolve client inquiries, concerns, and claims promptly and effectively
Maintain accurate records in agency management systems and provide reporting to leadership
What We're Looking For
7–10 years of experience in Commercial P&C insurance, ideally with an Account Executive background
Strong understanding of P&C coverages, underwriting, and rating concepts
Knowledge of real estate industry trends and relevant coverage/legislation
Excellent communication, presentation, and negotiation skills
A relationship-driven, sales-oriented personality with strong soft skills
Ability to work independently while collaborating across teams

Access to an internal training and professional development platform
Strong emphasis on work-life balance as a lived part of the culture, not just a policy
Collaborative, family-oriented team environment with high employee satisfaction and retention
Compensation
Base salary + performance bonus (based on a balanced scorecard, with a strong emphasis on revenue retention)
New business commission on closed referred opportunities
