Job Description

Executive Opportunity: Agency Principal & Equity Owner | Portland Metro

Farmers Insurance - District 24

Farmers Insurance District 24 is seeking a high-caliber business leader to spearhead a new agency location in the rapidly expanding Portland market. This is not a traditional management role; it is a private ownership opportunity backed by the infrastructure of a Fortune 500 brand.

We are looking for an seasoned professional with a proven track record of P&L management, strategic business development, and team leadership to scale a high-value insurance enterprise.

The Value Proposition: Strategic Ownership

This opportunity is tailored for established professionals who wish to transition from corporate leadership to business ownership without the risks of a traditional startup.

Immediate Equity & Contract Value: Build a salable asset. Unlike corporate roles, you are building equity in your own business for future exit or retirement.
Capital Support & Incentives: Access a $5,000 startup bonus, exterior branding subsidies, and a multi-year enhanced commission structure designed to accelerate your ROI.
Portfolio Diversification: Offer a comprehensive suite of risk management solutions including Personal, Commercial, Life, and Financial Services.
Operational Autonomy: Total control over your schedule, office culture, and strategic direction, supported by a world-class regional mentorship team.

Your Mandate

As the Agency Principal, you will act as the Chief Executive of your firm, focusing on:

Strategic Growth: Engineering and executing a market-penetration strategy for the Portland Metro area.
Talent Acquisition: Building, training, and mentoring a high-performing sales and operations team.
Portfolio Management: Overseeing a multi-line insurance portfolio while maintaining elite standards of client retention and satisfaction.
Brand Advocacy: Serving as a key community stakeholder and trusted advisor to high-net-worth individuals and local businesses.

Candidate Profile

We are seeking a "builder" rather than a "manager." Ideal candidates will possess:

Executive Presence: A history of success in sales leadership, executive management, or business ownership.
Operational Excellence: The ability to manage a sophisticated marketing pipeline and multi-channel sales funnel.
Regulatory Readiness: Current Oregon P&C and Life/Health licenses, or the executive drive to obtain them within 45 days.
Financial Integrity: The ability to pass a comprehensive criminal and financial background check.
Education: A Bachelor’s degree is preferred; professional certifications or advanced degrees are a plus.

Total Rewards

Uncapped earnings potential via one of the industry's most aggressive commission and renewal structures.
Access to group health, dental, and vision plans.
Marketing expense reimbursement and lead-generation support.
Specialized bonuses for Military Veterans and Active Duty members.
