Connecting employee benefits organizations with sales professionals and leadership talent in New York City is the focus of our specialized insurance recruiter practice. Our executive search and headhunter services support brokerages and carriers seeking to expand their presence in one of the nation’s most competitive markets.
New York City’s healthcare sector employs more than one million workers and represents the largest single employer group in the state. The city’s fintech ecosystem captured 30% of all U.S. fintech investment in 2024 and health tech companies raised $4 billion during the same period. Finance and professional services firms across Manhattan and the outer boroughs continue adding positions in areas intersecting with benefits administration and technology. These industry concentrations generate sustained demand for benefits producers who can serve employers navigating group health plan cost increases projected at 7% to 9% for 2026.
Sales professionals in employee benefits are recruited across all experience levels to support new business development and account growth. Service roles including account managers and client service representatives are placed with organizations requiring support for complex medical and ancillary/voluntary benefits portfolios. Leadership searches address needs for sales directors and practice leaders who can build and manage high-performing teams.
Employers across healthcare and life sciences in areas like Long Island City and Manhattan’s East Side are expanding. Financial services and technology firms throughout Midtown and lower Manhattan are increasing their benefits offerings to attract talent. The concentration of group health insurers and third-party administrators operating in the New York metropolitan area creates a deep candidate pool for organizations seeking experienced professionals. Our focus remains on identifying and placing candidates who align with each organization’s market position and growth objectives.
