About AACI Group

AACI Group, Inc. is dedicated to making insurance more accessible and affordable in catastrophe-prone regions. Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of wildfires and other natural disasters, while carriers are retreating from high-risk markets. Homeowners are being left with fewer and more expensive options. We are addressing this challenge by building AI-native insurance agencies and digital services that combine risk data, loss prevention, and innovative product delivery.

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Agency Manager to oversee the operations, growth, and team of AACI’s new insurance agency. This is a general management role responsible for the overall performance of the agency. Unlike a traditional producer role, the Agency Manager will focus on managing the flow of new business, optimizing operations, ensuring compliance, and leading the team to deliver exceptional service. Reporting directly to the CEO of AACI Group, this position is central to scaling the insurance agency into a leading agency serving high-risk markets.

• Serve as the primary liaison between the agency, AACI Group leadership, and carrier partners.
• Ensure compliance with insurance regulations and maintain high ethical standards.
• Collaborate with AACI’s technology and product teams to integrate AI-native tools and digital services into agency operations.
• Represent the agency in industry and community settings, helping position the agency as a trusted leader in catastrophe-prone markets.

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience in insurance, with significant leadership responsibility in an agency or carrier setting.
• Proven track record of managing teams and scaling operations in personal lines insurance.
• Deep knowledge of West Coast homeowners and catastrophe-exposed markets.
• Strong business acumen, with ability to balance growth, efficiency, and compliance.
• Strong proficiency with digital tools and technology, with ability to learn and implement new systems quickly.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with experience in early-stage or growth environments preferred.
• Excellent leadership, communication, and organizational skills.
• Ability to collaborate across functions and adapt to a fast-changing environment.

Location & Reporting
