Managing Partner (Franchise Opportunity) - BIG St Thomas
Top Benefits
About the role
Billyard Insurance Group is coming to St. Thomas, and we're looking for the right person to lead it. From the shops along Talbot Street to the families settling into the new subdivisions on the city's north and east sides, people here are loyal to businesses that show up for them. They buy homes here, work the line at the new PowerCo gigafactory or one of the city's established manufacturers, and commute into London every day, and they want an insurance broker who actually knows them. That's exactly what BIG St. Thomas will be.
As the Managing Partner of BIG St. Thomas, you won't just be opening an office, you'll be becoming part of the fabric of Elgin County's largest city. You'll serve the families enjoying Pinafore Park and the trails around Pinafore Lake, support the tradespeople and workers building out Canada's largest EV battery plant, and build the kind of client relationships that St. Thomas people are known for valuing. In a market anchored by the $7-billion Volkswagen PowerCo gigafactory now under construction, a proud identity as Canada's Railway City, and a population poised for rapid growth over the next decade, the opportunity is real and it's ready.
What does a BIG Managing Partner do?
You're the owner-operator of your branch. You lead your team, grow your book, and build something that's genuinely yours, with the full infrastructure of a national brokerage behind you.
Build your branch: Recruit and lead a team of brokers rooted in the local market, setting the culture and pace for your operation. Drive new business: Grow your client base through referral networks, community relationships, and your team's sales activity, in a city that's growing steadily and flying under most brokerages' radar. 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 technology: Operate with BIG's proprietary AI-driven underwriting and analytics platform, built to make quoting faster, smarter, and more competitive. Deliver an exceptional client experience: Build a team that recognizes that client experience is everything. Own your financials: Manage your branch's performance and drive profitability with the support of BIG's operational and financial frameworks. Represent the brand: Become a trusted, client-first insurance leader in St Thomas, backed by one of Canada's fastest-growing brokerages. Stay ahead: Access BIG U training, internal underwriting expertise, and the collective knowledge of 100+ Managing Partners across the country.
Does this sound like you?
You're an experienced insurance professional who knows this market. Maybe you've spent years building a book across Elgin County, or you're a producer in London, Woodstock, or the surrounding area who's been watching St. Thomas grow and knows the timing is right.
