Job Description

GKG's Associate Role

GKG's Associate role is a launchpad for a long-term career in insurance and risk management. This is a hands-on, rotational talent development program designed to give you real experience across multiple departments, paired with meaningful project work—not busywork. This is a short-term position (typically 6-18 mos.) with the goal of a long-term career upon completion.

What makes this role different: Instead of splitting time evenly between "work" and "projects," you'll rotate through key departments (Commercial Lines, Employee Benefits, Personal Lines & Sales), gaining practical experience while contributing to real client work and internal initiatives.

What you'll do:

• Rotate through multiple departments to build a broad, real-world foundation
• Support day-to-day client service and internal workflows
• Work on projects that improve processes, systems, or the client experience
• Learn how all parts of the agency work together (and why)
• Earn insurance licenses and participate in paid training and certifications
• Gradually narrow your focus as you identify your long-term career path at GKG

What we're looking for:

• Bachelor's degree (or equivalent experience)
• Curious, adaptable, and motivated to learn
• Strong organization and follow-through
• Comfortable working in a remote, tech-forward environment
• Interested in building a career—not just landing a job

Why GKG: You'll get structured development, real responsibility, mentorship from senior leaders, and a clear path into a long-term role—without being locked into one department too early.

Think of this role as "try before you specialize." We invest in you, and you invest in learning how to do great work—far from ordinary.
