DALLAS – March 19, 2025  – As the financial landscape continues to evolve, there has never been a better time to be a financial professional in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. Northwestern Mutual-Dallas/Ft. Worth is poised for significant growth as it announces its goal to enhance its team of skilled financial professionals to meet the increasing demand for personalized financial guidance throughout North and East Texas.

According to Northwestern Mutual’s 2024 Planning & Progress Study, a staggering 33% of Americans report feeling financially insecure, a six percent jump from the year before. In a time when financial insecurity impacts many Americans, NM-DFW recognizes the need for financial professionals who can guide individuals, families, and businesses in these great areas of North and East Texas toward stability and peace of mind. This effort also underscores the company’s commitment to its growing clientele throughout the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex and beyond.

"With 2025 underway, our mission is clear: to expand our presence throughout Dallas and the region by expanding our team of talented financial professionals,” said Tait Cruse, Managing Partner for NM-DFW. “Adding to our team will allow us to provide even greater expertise and guidance to our valued clients, helping them navigate challenging economic environments and achieve their financial goals. We are looking to shepherd men and women, and help them find the opportunity they have been searching for and, if successful, hopefully it’s the last resume they will ever prepare.”

In addition to offering competitive compensation packages, world-class local in-house training, and ongoing professional development opportunities, NM-DFW emphasizes a collaborative and supportive work environment that promotes growth and innovation. These initiatives are designed to attract top talent, including career changers, who embody the values of integrity, professionalism, and a client-centered approach. This enables NM-DFW to retain advisors that are highly motivated and driven to attain income independence and leave a lasting legacy.

"We believe the right people can make a profound difference in the lives of the families we serve,  said Jon Quesnel, Chief Development Officer at NM-DFW. "The future of finance is not only bright, but critical in a year of change and uncertainty. We are dedicated to being at the forefront of this transformation and look to use 2025 to help broaden our reach throughout North and East Texas."
