With Farmers, you have the backing of a world-class training program (University of Farmers®) and a diverse product portfolio including Auto, Home, Life, and Commercial insurance.

Key Responsibilities

• Business Development: Develop and execute marketing strategies to identify new leads and grow your book of business.

• Experience: Proven track record in sales, management, or business ownership is highly preferred.
• Attributes: A "self-starter" mindset with the resilience to build a business from the ground up.

Why Join Farmers?

• Ownership Interest: You own the economic interest in your business. You can sell your agency or pass it on to a family member.
• Residual Income: Earn a percentage of every policy renewal. This creates a "snowball effect" of recurring revenue over time.
• Support & Training: Access to a dedicated District Manager and staff to help you navigate the startup phase.
