The posting

THE OPPORTUNITY

Hedge is hiring a founding Head of Markets to build and operate the market-access foundation behind our distribution platform. You will own carrier and MGA appointments, capacity strategy, appetite coverage, producer codes, portal access, submission routes, and the operational readiness required to place business. This is distinct from strategic distribution partnerships.

COMPENSATION AND OWNERSHIP

Base salary is $125K-$200K. Equity is 0.25%-1.00%. The package reflects the depth of market relationships, technical insurance judgment, and operating ownership you bring.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

- Build a market strategy around real agency demand, appetite gaps, and placement economics

- Source and negotiate carrier, MGA, MGU, program, and delegated-authority relationships

- Drive appointment, contracting, producer-code, portal, and submission-route activation

- Maintain clear records of authority, appetite, commission, and operational constraints

- Partner with brokers, underwriting, product, and compliance to make market access usable

- Measure placement performance and continuously improve the portfolio

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

- First 30 days: establish a source-of-truth view of current markets, authority, and gaps

- By day 60: advance a ranked appointment and activation pipeline

- By day 90: activate meaningful new capacity and improve placement readiness

- In 12 months: build a differentiated portfolio of markets with measurable utilization and economics

WHO THRIVES HERE

You understand that a logo is not market access. You can separate appointment, authority, portal access, appetite, submission route, and bind capability, and you have the relationships and follow-through to turn agreements into working placement channels.

WHY HEDGE

Hedge is building the operating system for commercial insurance distribution. You will work directly with the founders and shape one of the company's most important strategic assets. We offer health benefits and meaningful equity.

WORK MODEL

This role may be based in San Francisco or remote within the United States. Regular travel for market and team work is expected.

INTERVIEW PROCESS

1. Application review

2. Focused introductory conversation

3. Market portfolio and operating-depth review

4. Working session on a realistic market-access opportunity

5. Final conversation with the founders

Hedge is an equal opportunity employer. We evaluate candidates based on ability, judgment, and potential, and we do not discriminate based on protected characteristics.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
