About The Position

Humana is hiring a Medicare Field Sales professional to serve individuals in the Gurnee, Illinois area. This field-based role requires living in the designated territory and involves working collaboratively on a team of 8–12 under the guidance of a Senior Manager and Regional Director. The position focuses on delivering helpful service, differentiating Humana through personalized community engagement, and growing the company's local presence.

The role educates prospective members about Humana Medicare Advantage plans and related offerings, including life, dental, vision, and prescription coverage. It builds face-to-face relationships through grassroots marketing, community events, and in-home visits, while driving self-generated sales and meeting performance goals. The associate uses company-issued iPads and digital platforms for consultations, enrollments, documentation, CRM updates, and follow-up.

During the Foundations licensing program, Humana pays for insurance training and licensing fees and provides virtual and in-market training. Associates receive a base salary and monthly guarantee during training. The first five weeks of employment and attendance are mandatory. Meetings and events may occur at varying times, including nights and weekends, so schedule flexibility is essential. The position is described as remote, with occasional travel to Humana offices for training or meetings; however, the work itself is field-based and requires residence in the designated territory.
