Hire a Remote Insurance Admin for Your Illinois Agency
Full-time remote insurance administrators on Central Time for Chicago and downstate P&C and benefits agencies. AMS360, EPIC, and Applied fluent. From $1,400 per month.
Why Illinois Insurance Agencies Hire Remote Admins
Chicago is one of the largest insurance employment centers in the US outside of Hartford. Allstate (Northbrook), CNA, Combined Insurance, Zurich North America, HCC, and dozens of MGAs and specialty carriers anchor the city. Around them sit thousands of independent P&C agencies, benefits shops, and risk advisors in the Chicago loop and suburbs. The Illinois Department of Insurance licenses roughly 230,000+ producers in the state. Agency back-office headcount is a constant staffing problem because policy admin, COI issuance, endorsement processing, and renewals all have to happen on cycle regardless of producer workload.
Chicago insurance CSR and account coordinator pay runs $50,000 to $65,000 per year per Indeed, with experienced admins in Lake Forest and Oak Brook shops clearing $70,000. Loaded, $4,500 to $5,500 per month. Turnover has historically been high, particularly in mid-size agencies that cannot match the benefits of carriers like Allstate or Zurich for their back-office talent.
A Teckas insurance admin works your Central Time hours inside your AMS. BLS May 2023 median for insurance claims and policy processing clerks is $47,330 and for insurance sales agents is $59,080.
