Job description

The Opportunity: Agency Owner in Training (Executive Sales & Ownership Track)

Farmers Insurance – District 24 is seeking a high-caliber business professional to enter our Retail Agency Manager Program in the Portland metro area. This is not a standard "nine-to-five" sales job; this is a clear, 6–12 month strategic pipeline to full Agency Ownership.

Under guided mentorship, you will learn the mechanics of the insurance industry while building a business asset that carries contract value and equity. We are looking for "Succession-Ready" candidates—individuals with the business acumen to lead a team and the sales drive to scale a territory.

The Financial Path:

  • Six-Figure Potential: Competitive commission, renewal, and bonus structures.
  • Capital Support: $5,000 Office Startup Bonus + Exterior Signage Bonus.
  • Military Incentives: Enhanced bonuses for Veterans and Active Duty.
  • Asset Building: Build "Contract Value" (equity) that can be sold or used for retirement.
  • Lead Support: Marketing expense reimbursement and lead generation assistance.

What Your "Ramp-Up" Looks Like:

  • Phase 1 (Training): Master the product lines and sales funnel through our District Office mentorship.
  • Phase 2 (Protege): Lead a sales team, manage a marketing pipeline, and prove your P&L capabilities.
  • Phase 3 (Ownership): Transition into full Agency Ownership with a dedicated book of business and a branded retail location.

What We Are Looking For:

  • Business Acumen: Experience as a Program Manager, Business Executive, or Sales Leader.
  • Growth Mindset: A desire to transition from "Employee" to "Business Owner."
  • Licensing: Ability to obtain Oregon Property & Casualty and Life & Health licenses (we provide a 45-day roadmap).
  • Community Presence: A desire to be a visible leader in the Portland/Metro community.

Requirements:

  • Proven track record in Sales or Operations Management.
  • Strong financial/criminal background check.
  • College degree preferred, but business experience is the primary qualifier.

Company Description

Our district is about having a big heart and a whole lot of hustle. We believe that no one wins alone. If you're looking to be part of a leading group that encourages involvement, sharing, community-focused work, open-minded attitudes towards trying new things, and doing the extra to get ahead, this may be the place for you. Our everyday purpose is to help agency owners succeed. We do it by knowing our people. We also make sure that we are always accessible, stay well-informed, provide consistent training, distribute best practices, know the numbers, celebrate success, support tough times, and inspire confidence.
