Those looking for Fort Lauderdale sales jobs may want to consider a position in the insurance industry, as one local company continues to expand.
Patriot National Insurance Group recently announced its plans to hire more than 50 new employees at the company's headquarters in Ft. Lauderdale. The company, which provides workers' compensation and other insurance services, is making the hires after a record-breaking 2010.
"As we plan for another year of positive growth at Patriot National, we look forward to expanding our operations in Fort Lauderdale," Steven M. Mariano, chairman and CEO of Patriot National Insurance Group, said in a statement. "We firmly believe in this community, and as our business continues to develop, we certainly anticipate taking additional space downtown."
Fueled by rapid growth in the past few years, Patriot recently consolidated all of its local offices into a state-of-the-art headquarters at Las Olas City Center. The company has grown from three employees to more than 150 jobs in Fort Lauderdale in the last five years alone.
Patriot has two operating subsidiaries, including Guarantee Insurance Company, which offers a workers' compensation product line, and Patriot Underwriters, Inc., which provides alternative workers' compensation plans for insurance companies.
"Confidence is high throughout the organization," Patriot Underwriters President Dean D. Watters said. "Each of our business units is expanding, and our strategic location in Broward County's central business district ensures our ability to attract the best available talent in the industry."
