About Hedge

Hedge is a wholesale specialty insurance brokerage serving licensed retail agents and brokers with public appetite, form, and submission resources. Backed by Y Combinator.

About the role

Hedge is building an AI-native specialty insurance company. We help independent retail insurance agencies place difficult commercial risks faster and with better market access. As a Business Development Representative, you will open new agency relationships and help turn them into durable submission flow. You will work directly with the founders, learn commercial insurance from the inside, and help build the playbook that future revenue teams will use.

What they're looking for

  • Evidence that you can create opportunities, not just complete activities
  • Comfort spending meaningful time on the phone
  • Clear, concise writing and professional follow-through
  • Strong research, organization, and attention to detail
  • Resilience, curiosity, and comfort receiving direct feedback
  • Interest in building a sales system rather than inheriting a finished playbook
