Company Overview

This prominent insurance brokerage operates nationwide, offering a diverse range of insurance services that require seasonal Medicare coverage roles and full-time account management positions. Dahl Consulting (DAHL) collaborated with the company’s Senior Vice President, insurance talent acquisition, and operations teams to source top candidates and quickly fill essential permanent and seasonal roles across multiple states.

Hiring Challenges

With this company’s rapid growth came a rising need for talent, especially in specialized insurance account management roles that demanded 5–10 years of experience. The company sought seasoned professionals for positions like Personal Lines Account Managers, Commercial Lines Account Managers, and Real Estate Account Executives. Additionally, they needed a reliable source for temporary Medicare enrollment specialists during busy seasons, as hiring qualified candidates quickly had become increasingly difficult. Given the company’s nationwide reach and their need for remote and on-site support, they required an insurance industry staffing partner who truly understood the complexities of multi-state hiring for tight timelines and diverse skill sets.

Workforce Solutions

DAHL delivered a customized insurance staffing solution, offering both contract and permanent placements. For the Medicare enrollment specialist roles, DAHL filled 20 positions rapidly, ensuring the company could keep pace with business demands. To meet the needs for experienced insurance account managers, DAHL targeted highly skilled professionals with specific backgrounds in employee benefits along with property and casualty insurance experience. These hires were strategically placed in Maple Grove, Minnesota; Cape Girardeau, Missouri; and Seattle, Washington, addressing critical needs across the company’s core multi-state locations.

DAHL’s talent attraction and staffing expertise in the insurance industry, paired with an in-depth understanding of required certifications, enabled them to attract seasonal and permanent candidates with ready-made books of business. This competitive edge, combined with a flexible payrolling solution, relieved the client company’s administrative load and ensured that valued seasonal Medicare employees returned year after year, providing talent continuity and reducing costly turnover.

Key Results

Over the past year, DAHL has successfully placed 50 people with the company, creating an insurance hiring partnership that has evolved into a lasting, trusted collaboration. DAHL’s comprehensive knowledge of multi-state employment laws has smoothed out the complexities of hiring for remote and on-site roles, making them the brokerage’s go-to partner for both planned growth and unexpected talent needs. As the company continues to expand, particularly through new subsidiaries, DAHL remains a steady resource for bridging talent gaps and supporting long-term success.

“Partnering with DAHL over the years has allowed us to spend time focusing on our preparation for our busy season, without having to spend so much time searching for qualified candidates. DAHL has assisted us in finding candidates that will help us on a temporary basis and sometimes even become full-time employees after the temporary assignment has ended.” -Operations Director
