About the Role

At Trellis, we’re not your typical agency, we’re reimagining how insurance is bought and sold with a platform built on innovation, data, and automation. As a Personal Lines Insurance Sales Agent, you’ll play a key role on a high-performing team, helping customers across the country find personalized coverage through a wide network of over 80 insurance carriers.

This isn’t just a sales role, it’s your opportunity to thrive in a fast-moving, fully remote environment where cutting-edge technology meets real human impact. We celebrate performance, reward initiative, and create clear pathways for growth.

This is a remote position open to candidates in most U.S. states (with the exception of California and New York).

We believe in paying competitively for great work. As a remote team, we set our salaries at the 75th percentile of national market data in our industry. You can count on your pay being in line with (or above) the market. For this role, agents start at a $40,000 base salary, with an On Target commission variable of $30,000 (uncapped). We review compensation twice a year to make sure we’re staying competitive and rewarding our team’s contributions.
