Farmers Insurance District 0609 is selecting experienced sales and business-development professionals for our Insurance Apprentice Program in Bristol, Pennsylvania.

Business development, account management, or customer acquisition
A role with sales quotas, production goals, revenue targets, or performance-based compensation

What This Role Requires
This is not a passive customer-service position. You will be expected to initiate conversations, follow up consistently, ask for business, work through rejection, and remain accountable for measurable sales activity and production.
