Description

Why this role matters: The Placements team is the engine room of Vouch’s brokerage. This is where trust meets execution — where clients count on us to secure the coverage that protects their future, and carriers look to us to bring them the most innovative companies in the market. As a Placement Coordinator, you’ll be a critical support partner to our brokers, ensuring that placements move quickly, accurately, and seamlessly. Your work accelerates deal flow, protects client timelines, and keeps our data and documentation sharp — directly impacting revenue recognition and client satisfaction. This role is designed to give you a front-row seat to the full brokerage cycle. You’ll develop hands-on expertise with carriers, coverage structures, compliance filings, and placement technology — building the foundation to grow into a broker role at Vouch. What you’ll do: Collaborate closely with brokers and account managers — building strong relationships and learning to anticipate needs in order to proactively support deal flow and client outcomes. Prepare and track submissions — ensuring brokers and carriers have the information they need to move quickly and efficiently. Coordinate outstanding requirements and subjectivities — reducing bottlenecks, accelerating time-to-bind, and strengthening trust with clients and underwriters. Quote and process less complex renewals — developing firsthand experience with carrier workflows and the fundamentals of broking. Assign and manage workload across the placements team — helping balance priorities, ensuring smooth handoffs, and maximizing team efficiency. Complete surplus lines filings — supporting compliance requirements while building regulatory fluency. About you: 1–3 years of experience in commercial insurance (brokerage, carrier, or related role) preferred. Highly organized and detail-oriented, with a passion for getting things right the first time. Comfortable working across teams and communicating with both internal stakeholders and external partners. Tech-forward: familiar with tools like Salesforce, Zendesk, or similar systems, and eager to adopt new technology. Hungry to learn the brokerage craft, with interest in progressing toward client-facing broking responsibilities. Nice to have: Property & Casualty license (or willingness to obtain). Experience with surplus lines filings, Acord forms, or carrier portals. Exposure to renewal workflows or placement support in a fast-paced environment. Interest in high-growth industries such as fintech, AI, life sciences, or venture capital.
