Entry-Level Medicare Sales Agent — Licensing-Sponsored Path
Start a career in Medicare sales with Ukiah Insurance Services LLC. We are looking for motivated, customer-focused individuals to join our team. No previous insurance license or Medicare experience is required.
About the role
For selected candidates, UIS will sponsor the applicable insurance-licensing process and provide structured training, coaching, and support. After licensing and completion of the hiring requirements, this becomes a permanent, year-round hourly position—not a temporary AEP contract. The role may be performed remotely from an approved U.S. state or from our office in Ukiah, California.
Why join UIS?
- UIS-sponsored insurance licensing for selected candidates
- Permanent, year-round employment after licensing and hiring requirements are completed
- Performance-based bonus for every Credited Sale, beginning with the first
- No minimum-sales threshold before bonuses begin
- Remote-work flexibility or an in-office option in Ukiah, California
- Consistent Monday–Friday Pacific-time schedule
- Structured Medicare, sales, systems, and compliance training
- Modern comparison, enrollment, and customer-service tools
- Carrier contracting and appointments coordinated by UIS and Ritter
- An opportunity to help shape a growing Medicare sales operation
Licensing sponsorship
UIS will directly pay for the following approved licensing expenses for selected candidates:
- One UIS-authorized prelicensing course
- One examination attempt
- Required fingerprinting
- Initial insurance-license application
Selection for licensing sponsorship is not a guarantee of employment. Candidates must obtain the required license and satisfy the stated hiring conditions before employment begins. Sponsored costs are not subject to repayment. Once employment begins, required UIS onboarding, Medicare training, carrier certification, systems training, and practice work are paid working time.

Pay
The position pays between $19 and $22 per hour after the candidate obtains the required license, satisfies the hiring conditions, and begins employment. Agents are also eligible for a performance-based sales bonus beginning with their first Credited Sale.
