SEATTLE, May 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Allstate
Insurance Company today announced a boost to its sales force in WA
to keep pace with growing consumer demand for insurance and
financial products and services in the state.
"We are seeing increased consumer demand for auto and home
insurance as well as financial advice and planning," says
Allstate's Recruiting Manager, Debbie
Cooper. "We are seeking qualified professionals and offering
comprehensive training and resources to support the success for
each of them."
Allstate is looking to fill 116 job opportunities in
Washington. This includes 29 agency owners, 5 exclusive
financial specialists and the remaining jobs will be sales
professionals hired by those small business owners. For the agency
owner and financial specialist opportunities, Allstate is seeking
people with a strong entrepreneurial drive and passion to help
others in their community thrive. These candidates embrace risks
and challenges and are able to invest in a small business to ensure
its stability and growth.
The addition of the new agency locations will have a compounding
effect on each city's job market, as each new agency opens with
several employees to ensure customers are well-served with courtesy
and efficiency.
To recruit more agency owners, Allstate is offering up to a
$10,000 award to any member of the
general public who refers an eligible candidate to Allstate. The
referral award is payable after appointment.
"Allstate is a trusted brand and an excellent wealth-building
opportunity for a small business owner. We are unique among all
other insurers because the agent owns the economic interest in
their business," says Cooper. "Allstate agents can sell the
economic interest in their agency or pass the business they build
on to a family member."
Candidates interested in becoming an Allstate agency owner will
need capital to invest in their agency to help ensure they can
successfully fund the normal day-to-day costs associated with
opening and running a small business. Sales professionals need no
liquid capital to apply for jobs within an agency.
