Life Insurance Agent Job Description

A life insurance agent is a person who sells life insurance policies.

As an agent, you help people determine how much life insurance they need and help find the policy that best meets their needs.

A life insurance agent can work for an insurance company, or he or she can work independently.

For example, an independent insurance agent sells insurance policies for a variety of companies and may need to have several policies with multiple companies in order to meet his client’s needs.

Insurance agents work for insurance companies, which sell policies directly to consumers.

A person who sells insurance policies is often referred to as an insurance broker.

Agents, brokers, and salespeople are all in the life insurance industry.
