ABOUT PROPER INSURANCE
Proper Insurance is the national leader in short-term rental (STR) insurance, with over 100,000 policies written across all 50 states. As a Coverholder at Lloyd’s of London and the endorsed insurance provider for Vrbo, we offer vacation rental owners a single, comprehensive policy covering both commercial and personal use—a solution that traditional carriers simply cannot match.
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Bozeman, MT, we have grown from a two-person operation to a team of 100+ and continue to expand at an accelerated pace. The short-term rental market is one of the fastest-growing segments in hospitality and real estate, and Proper Insurance sits at the center of it.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is a rare chance to build a career—not just hold a job. As an Account Executive at Proper Insurance, you will develop an exclusive book of business in an assigned territory, earning commissions on both new and renewing policies. Because this market is still emerging and largely underserved, the growth ceiling is high for producers who are willing to put in the work.
Approximately 80% of your leads will be inbound, giving you a meaningful head start. The remaining 20% comes from proactive outreach to current clients, property managers and real estate professionals—relationships that, once established, generate high-value referral pipelines.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
Top performers consistently earn well over six figures annually within their first three years. Compensation is structured as follows:
Base Draw: $5,000/month guaranteed for the first 90 days; 100% Commission after with a draw being paid bi-weekly.
New Business Commission: Paid on every policy written in your territory
Renewal Commission: Earned beginning at the 12-month mark—your book compounds over time
Performance Bonuses: Quarterly Bonuses available for top performers
Additional benefits include:
Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and life insurance
HSA, FSA, and HRA options

401(k) retirement plan
Flexible PTO, sick days, and all major holidays off
