You've heard the story before. Big agency gobbles up small agency. Company cultures change. Opportunities for ownership disappear and over night you've become a cog in the wheel.
We spotted this trend over two decades ago... so we decided to do things a different.
As a top sales agent, you deserve more than just a paycheck. At Christensen Group, we believe you should reap the rewards of the value you create. As a 100% ESOP-owned company, there are no outside shareholders profiting off of your hard work. Your long-term vision for your future begins here. Christensen Group is looking for top talent to expand our national presence. You can be part of a different story. Join us.
We understand that shifting gears in the middle of a successful career can be disruptive. Why would you ever want to shake things up? We've asked ourselves that same question. But we have an opportunity so rare and unique, it deserves at least a look.
A dollar comes in the door. A dollar stays in the door. As an ESOP, we pay no state or federal income tax. There are no outside shareholders. We reward those that create the value.
We have a growing remote employee base across the country. Our technology platform and brand are scalable and able to successfully support our team and clients in all corners of the US market.
Here it is. The opportunity to build your own practice without having the administrative burden. You'll have our support the entire way.
Business Insurance has named Christensen Group Insurance a Best Place to Work nationally.
I walked away from a seven-figure book of business and a situation where I was happy, because of the opportunity at CG and the people. The long-term potential of the ESOP and generous splits played a big part in this decision, but also the opportunity to have more control over how I grow and manage my business was key. It feels like everyone I work with has a common goal in mind. There is an “How can I help” attitude instead of a “I have to do this” attitude among non-producing colleagues, and this makes a big difference. Among producers, everyone is very collaborative instead of competitive, when it comes to helping win deals.
I had a prospect in Arkansas that we scheduled an intro meeting with earlier this year. It was a decent sized contractor that needed some help with a bond issue. At the drop of a hat 4 members of our CG team drove/flew down to be a part of this meeting with me. No one asked “what’s in it for me.” Every person on our team just asked, “how do we win?” Our culture of teamwork is unlike anything I’ve seen in this industry especially among a top 100 broker.
Here’s what sets CG apart from most shops: We have a unique level of collaboration where everyone supports each other’s success. A win for one of us is a win for all, and we genuinely assist new producers without taking a cut of their commission. Our low staff turnover, thanks to the ESOP, means we provide consistent service to our clients. We’re rewarded for all our opportunities, not just the core areas of production. Most importantly, our culture is exceptional—working with people who are not only professional and knowledgeable but also truly enjoyable and respectful.
As a producer at CG I am so honored to be part of the ESOP culture- our employee dynamic is untouchable!
I could not be happier with my decision to join CG after spending time with a national captive insurance company and a bank owned agency. CG’s unique ESOP structure builds an unmatched team dynamic where our employees, clients and carriers are all top priority. I feel as though no matter where you sit geographically, you can “feel” the cohesiveness of the team. I’m grateful to be part of such a positive, energetic, and growing workplace.
I will say that after a long time and a lot of success in this business, it is challenging to allow yourself to make a bold move and change firms. I am reminded every day here at CG that I made a great move in joining this team. Our ESOP structure creates a level of innovation, accountability, and stability that I have never experienced anywhere else in this business. This is a challenging business, but it is great to come to work every day with a smile on my face because everyone is focused on the main thing: exceeding our client’s expectations. My only regret is that I did not make this move sooner!
At CG, I can truly focus on my work, surrounded by experienced peers and all the resources I need—without the constraints or bureaucracy that are so common in other agencies. Every new client, and every retained client, is celebrated across the organization because we're all invested in CG’s success through our ESOP. Most companies say they care about their team, but CG shows it. After a major accident, I was never pressured about work or made to feel guilty for being out. Multiple executives even encouraged me to take as much time as needed for a full recovery. Our clients' successful insurance experiences are directly tied to the success of CG and its employees. That's why every team member is fully focused on ensuring our clients' success.
As a producer at CG I am so honored to be part of the ESOP culture- our employee dynamic is untouchable!
