Remote Insurance Account Specialist - State Farm Agent Team Member

Who We Are Looking For

Katherine Patrick State Farm in Mount Holly, North Carolina has an opening for a licensed insurance professional to help grow our book of business from a home office. If you enjoy connecting with people, like having a clear scoreboard, and want earnings that keep climbing as your skills do, we would like to talk with you. The role is fully remote, and you will work Eastern Time hours alongside our team.

Day to Day

  • Connect with new prospects and existing clients to find gaps in their coverage
  • Turn conversations into appointments and quotes, then follow through to a decision
  • Track your activity and pipeline carefully in our agency software
  • Work toward weekly and monthly activity and sales goals
  • Keep learning through product training and continuing education

You Will Thrive Here If

  • Earning more when you sell more sounds better to you than a flat paycheck
  • You are at ease reaching out to people who are not expecting your call
  • You stay persistent, knowing many sales happen several conversations in

Probably Not the Right Match If

  • A steady routine with no sales goals is what you are after
  • Your strength is servicing existing accounts rather than opening new ones

Requirements

  • Current Property & Casualty and Life & Health licenses; applications without both licenses cannot be considered
  • Ability to work Eastern Time business hours
  • A dedicated, quiet place to work and fast, reliable internet
  • Clear, upbeat communication over the phone
  • A self-starter who keeps activity high without reminders
  • Coachable and supportive of teammates
  • At least two years of experience in a State Farm office (required)

Perks & Benefits

  • Base pay plus commission that is never capped
  • Health insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Paid time off for vacation, illness, and personal needs
  • Paid company holidays
  • A defined path to advance in the agency

Earning Potential: $55,000–$90,000 per year

This range shows what you can expect to earn in total, combining base salary, commission, and bonuses, when you meet your performance goals. Starting base is set by your experience and licensing, and with no ceiling on commission, strong performers often finish above it.
