Our firm connects employee benefits organizations in Dallas with top-performing sales professionals and experienced leadership talent. As a specialized insurance recruiter serving the Dallas-Fort Worth market, we focus on identifying candidates who can navigate the complexities of group health and ancillary/voluntary benefits sales.

Dallas-Fort Worth has attracted more corporate headquarters than any other U.S. metro since 2018, with 100 companies relocating to the region through 2024. This influx of employers has expanded demand for benefits advisors capable of managing large group accounts and self-funded arrangements. The finance and insurance sector in Dallas-Fort Worth added over 9,000 jobs in the most recent annual period, growing at a rate that outpaced the national average by a significant margin. Healthcare now ranks as the second-largest industry in North Texas, driving consistent demand for benefits professionals who understand medical plan design and cost containment strategies.

Group health insurance premiums in Texas increased substantially for the 2026 plan year, with some employer renewals reflecting double-digit percentage changes. Employers across the region are evaluating self-funded and level-funded plan structures at higher rates than in previous years. These market conditions have intensified competition for benefits professionals with experience in underwriting support and account management.

Our executive search practice focuses on identifying sales leaders and producers with established books or relationships and demonstrated success in new business development. We also function as a headhunter for service roles including senior account managers or account executives. Leadership searches extend to regional sales directors and vice presidents seeking to build or expand operations in North Texas. The concentration of Fortune 500 companies and middle-market employers throughout Dallas and its surrounding suburbs continues to generate sustained hiring activity across the employee benefits distribution channel.
