Insurance is a trillion dollar market that is fundamental to society, yet it has not modernized — until now. 

 

Newfront is building the modern insurance experience. 

 

We've reimagined the experience for clients, prospects, and employees, altering the way people create, understand, select, transact, and use insurance. We're changing the approach so that it starts and ends with the client, not the product, and empowering people for moments that matter. 

 

Our unique approach recognizes both the vast potential of technology and the fundamental role of insurance experts. We're a technology-driven company with DE&I in our DNA and strong values; we believe people matter most. 

 

Our mission is to define the future of the insurance industry, while instilling a high performance culture in combination with living our Work, Love, Play ethos each day. We value balanced lives and are passionate about creating a culture of wellness that results in healthier, happier, and more productive employees, and more successful clients.

 

This position requires strategic thinking, a persuasive communication style, and will be working directly with clients and internal staff. 

 

Newfront's Retirement Services team is among the best in the country, providing advisory services to some of the Bay Area's fastest growing companies. Our team prides itself on enabling each team member to grow and advance in their role, as well as within the organization. Our team also encourages and supports each team member to get involved in corporate and community initiatives unrelated to the role itself. Working in this role means working in a fast-paced environment and collaborating with the team to provide unique and tailored solutions for our client’s retirement plan offering. We pride ourselves on our flexibility and ability to customize everything we do for our clients. Newfront is a team of risk and reward advisors providing industry leading services and resources in insurance, risk management, employee benefits and retirement programs to our clients so they can focus on building success.
