Personal Lines Sales Agent

About Trellis

Trellis is rewriting the insurance experience from the inside out. We’re the tech company behind Savvy, our licensed insurance agency, and we’re bringing clarity and ease to a space known for… the opposite. With powerful tools, clean design, and a customer-first mindset, we’re making insurance shopping refreshingly effortless.

We’re a profitable, fast-growing Series A startup backed by General Catalyst, QED, NYCA, and Amex Ventures. As a remote-first team, we move quickly, experiment boldly, and build with intention.

If you’re craving meaningful impact, energized by ambiguity, and are ready to build alongside exceptional teammates, you’re going to love doing your best work at Trellis.

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