At John Sutton State Farm in Elgin, we’re expanding our team and looking for a licensed, driven, and experienced financial services professional with a proven track record in life insurance and financial product sales.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Minimum 2+ years of experience in life insurance or financial services sales

  • Active Illinois Life/Health license required

  • FINRA Series 6, 63 and 65 preferred

  • Strong prospecting, relationship-building, and closing skills

  • Bilingual Spanish speakers highly encouraged to apply

  • Self-starter mindset with entrepreneurial drive

  • Familiarity with the Elgin market or surrounding area a plus

Why John Sutton State Farm?

  • No asset minimums. No AUM quotas. No cold call lists from HQ.

  • You’ll receive quality leads, strong local brand recognition, and the support of one of the most respected names in insurance and financial services.

  • Flexible, independent-agent style selling with the backing of a trusted Fortune 500 brand

  • Aggressive commission structure with uncapped earning potential

  • Pathway to Agency Ownership for the right candidate

If you’re feeling stuck in a rigid corporate structure, tired of pushing products that don’t align with client needs, or looking for a more entrepreneurial environment with real growth potential, we want to talk to you.
