The results of the Q1 2026 Insurance Labor Market Study will be shared in a complimentary webinar presentation at 1 p.m. CST on February 19, 2026. The semi-annual study was conducted by The Jacobson Group, the leading provider of talent to the insurance industry, and Aon plc (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm.

The survey ran from January 12 through February 1, and surveyed insurance carriers across all industry sectors on hiring and revenue plans for the next 12 months. During the webinar presentation, Jeffrey Blair, senior vice president of executive search and business development at The Jacobson Group, and Jeff Rieder, partner and head of performance benchmarking for Aon’s Strategy and Technology Group, will share key findings and discuss industry labor market trends and staffing expectations for the coming year.

”The talent marketplace continues to evolve, and insurance leaders are making decisions that will impact their organizations’ success in 2026 and beyond,” said Blair. “Since 2009, the results of our study have offered a benchmark to help guide insurers as they adapt their talent strategies amid a shifting landscape.”

Rieder said, “Financial performance in the industry was strong in 2025. However, many analysts predict softening market conditions, which may impact talent strategies for carriers depending on their product and geographic footprint. This study helps provide perspective on industry labor expectations amid these changing conditions.”

The webinar is open to all members of the insurance community. To register, follow this link: https://jcbsn.gr/2026q1-webinar.
