We are working exclusively with a privately backed, newly established brokerage firm created to manage the insurance program for a large, well-established Canadian construction company. With a $3–4 million book of business already in place and the full backing of a well-capitalized parent organization, this is a rare ground-floor opportunity for an experienced insurance professional to build and lead a brokerage from the inside out.
This is not a typical role. We're looking for a technically strong, operationally minded professional who can set up the infrastructure of a growing P&C brokerage, manage a complex commercial program, and grow into a senior leadership position over time.
What You'll Be Doing
At Aplin — together with our brands CompuStaff, Impact Recruitment, and Vantix Systems — we connect great people with great organizations across North America. We believe diverse teams build stronger companies, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. We use AI tools to assist in a fair and efficient matching process, helping our recruiters connect the right people with the right opportunities. To be considered, applicants must be legally entitled to work in Canada, including holding any required permits. Our recruitment services are always free for job seekers.
