Confie is the largest independent personal lines insurance agency and broker in the United States—serving customers nationwide. In 2010, we established our Shared Services Center in Tijuana, Baja California, creating a world-class operation built to efficiently support our customers, drive innovation, and develop exceptional talent. Since then, our Mexico operation has become a vital extension of our organization, strengthening the work that powers our U.S. business and elevating the experience of customers across all 50 states. Today, more than 1,800 team members—both on-site and remote—help fuel our success with a focus on quality, consistency, and operational excellence.
Our growth reflects a deep investment in technology, continuous improvement, and—most importantly—our people. We foster an inclusive, fast-paced, and collaborative culture where employees are encouraged to grow and build long-term careers with a company shaping the future of insurance.
