Junior Underwriting positions in Denver?

Hi everyone! I’m looking to break into the insurance industry here in Denver and would love any advice or connections.

My partner works as an underwriter, and whenever I’ve gone to work events with him people always say I should come work in the industry — so after recently losing my job, I figured this might be the perfect time to actually make the leap and start learning the ropes.

His company is based out of Atlanta, and since he just moved to Colorado, most of the contacts I’ve met through him are out there and don’t translate as well locally. I’m hoping to connect with people in the Denver area who might have insight into getting started on the underwriting side.

A little about me: I’m very outgoing, detail-oriented, and love solving problems. My background is in sales, marketing, and brand management in the publishing industry, so I’m used to working with clients, juggling moving pieces, and learning quickly.

If anyone has tips on breaking into underwriting (or related entry-level roles), companies to look into, or people I should connect with, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
