Meet Donna. She's a member of the baby boomer generation, and she's been a successful client account manager in the insurance industry for more than 30 years. She's tired of working full time and wants to change her lifestyle. She also has elderly parents for whom she is responsible, and she wants to spend more time with her children and grandchildren. But she's not ready to give up working completely.
Meet Larry. He owns a successful insurance agency with a staff of 12 people, and he'd like to add one more person, but not full time. He'd also like that person to be someone with experience in insurance and in business, and he prefers someone U.S-based, even though he's considered the option of outsourcing.
These are perfect candidates for WAHVE (Work at Home Vintage Employees), a company that bridges the gap between the insurance firm's staffing needs and experienced insurance professionals who want to phase into retirement or no longer want full-time work. Founded in 2010 by Sharon Emek, Ph.D., CIC, WAHVE matches insurance firms that need help with insurance professionals who are looking to remain productive and want an opportunity for a continued career working from home.
