We’re proud to announce that we have again been named one of Business Insurance’s 100 Largest U.S. Insurance Brokers. This annual list ranks independent agencies by total revenue.
Oakbridge moved up 22 places from the 2021 results and is now #68 on the list of the largest brokers in the country. The 2022 ranking reflects strong organic growth through new business, excellent client retention, and the addition of new partnerships throughout the Southeast. Oakbridge’s continued success illustrates the strength of the company’s market position as one of the largest independently owned insurance agencies in the Southeast.
“Our team is thrilled to be included on this list for another year, and to have moved up the list in a meaningful way,” said Robbie Smith, CEO of Oakbridge. “This recognition is evidence of the hard work and operational excellence achieved by our colleagues and carrier partners.”

Homebuilders Program
Homebuilders across the Southeast are increasingly under pressure to deliver high-quality housing stock quickly and in a cost-effective manner. The operational complexities of a multi-home worksite present a high level of risk for even the most experienced builder. Any casualty, large or small, can result in lost time and labor and has the potential to be disastrous.
The Oakbridge Homebuilders Program sets the industry standard for coverage and risk prevention, offering exclusive options that can save 20-30% on insurance premiums.
The Oakbridge Homebuilder product offering includes:
- General Liability, Property, Workers Comp, Umbrella
- Blanket & Single Shot Builders Risk

- Hired and Non-owned Auto
- $100,000 Mold, Silica, Synthetic Stucco
- Employment Practices Liability

Refer. Apply. Bonus!
Oakbridge is always looking for good people, and you can help. Research has shown, and our own experience supports, that new hires who come into a company through employee referrals are excellent contributors, stay with the company longer, and are more cost-effective recruits. If you know someone who would be a good addition to our company, you may be awarded a referral bonus of $2,500 (less taxes) if you refer a candidate and they are hired. For new producer referrals, the program also pays $7,500 (less taxes) when the producer validates.
Employees must refer candidates to Human Resources by registering on the iSolvedHire employee referral portal and sending a link to an open position to their referral from the portal. The referral must then apply for the job. The referral will only be registered as coming from the employee if these instructions are followed. Follow the instructions on the website to create an account and use the pass phrase oakbridgeinsurance.
