This is your opportunity to stop working for someone else's vision and start building your own, with everything you need already in place.

What does a BIG Managing Partner do?

As a Managing Partner, you're the owner-operator of your BIG branch. You lead your team, grow your book of business, and build something that's genuinely yours - with the infrastructure of a national brokerage working behind you every step of the way.

Here's what that looks like:

• Build your branch: Recruit, onboard, and lead a team of brokers in your market, setting the culture and pace for your operation.
• Drive new business: Develop and execute strategies to grow your client base through referral networks, community relationships, digital outreach, and your team's sales activity.
• Leverage exclusive market access: Offer your clients more options with access to 40+ insurance providers across personal, commercial, life, and travel lines.
• Use best-in-class tools: Operate with BIG's proprietary AI-driven underwriting and analytics platform - purpose-built to make quoting faster, smarter, and more competitive.

• Own your financials: Manage your branch's performance, track key metrics, and drive profitability with the support of BIG's operational and financial frameworks.
• Represent the brand: Build your reputation in your community as a trusted, client-first insurance leader backed by one of Canada's fastest-growing brokerages.
• Grow your team: Attract and develop talented brokers, creating a high-performance environment where people want to work and succeed.
• Stay ahead of the industry: Participate in BIG's ongoing training programs through BIG U and stay current on product knowledge, market trends, and compliance standards.
• Connect with the network: Tap into the collective knowledge of 80+ Managing Partners and the full BIG Head Office leadership team - because you're independent, but never alone.
