Job Description

Sales Professional to Agency Owner | Farmers Insurance

What if your next career move was owning the business instead of working for one?

Farmers Insurance District 31 is looking for experienced sales professionals and aspiring business individuals interested in opening and growing their own insurance agency.

If you have a background in sales, business development, or leadership and have considered business ownership, this could be an opportunity worth exploring.

As a potential agency owner, you'll focus on building a local client base, developing referral relationships, generating new business, and eventually recruiting and leading your own team.

You'll have access to training, business coaching, and guidance to help you understand insurance operations, client acquisition, and the responsibilities of running an agency.

Who We're Looking For:

  • Previous sales experience

  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills

  • Entrepreneurial mindset and interest in business ownership

  • Ability to develop business within your local community

  • Access to approximately $60,000 in capital

Previous business ownership or management experience is a plus. Insurance experience is preferred but not required, and licensing guidance is available.

Why Consider Farmers Insurance?

You'll have the opportunity to build your own insurance business while receiving training and support associated with an established national insurance brand.

This is an agency ownership opportunity for individuals who want to take responsibility for building and growing a business over the long term.

If you're ready to explore what owning a Farmers Insurance agency could look like, we'd like to hear from you.

Apply today to learn more about Farmers Insurance District 31.
