Bruce Fairchild

Bruce’s 30 year working career includes extensive consultative sales and management experience in small businesses as well as Fortune 500 companies. Bruce founded and ran his own seminar company. He provided guidance to students and parents regarding the most effective way to prepare for, select and fund a college education.

Upon graduation from the University of Washington with a B.A. in Business Administration, Bruce accepted a management position which brought him to San Francisco. Over the next seven years he gained extensive experience in manufacturing, retail sales and management. In 1983 he was recruited and hired by Dun & Bradstreet. Over the course of the next twenty years Bruce received numerous promotions and prestigious awards including three consecutive Presidential Citation awards for finishing nationally in the top 5% of all sales professionals at D&B.

His responsibilities at D&B included training, coaching, motivating and delivering sales results. He interfaced directly with clients, suppliers, and senior management. Bruce and his team consistently overachieved on their set objectives. He was also instrumental in helping several of his team members achieve Regional and National recognition. After 20+ years at Dun & Bradstreet, in 2003, Bruce decided it was time to put his talents and training into a start up company of his own. While this was a very personally rewarding endeavor, Bruce came to the realization that if he was going to continue to fund his own son’s college education he could much more easily achieve that goal by helping people protect their future by providing them with appropriate insurance solutions. With his extensive corporate experience and comfort level when working with executive contacts, workplace benefits were a natural fit.

Bruce joined The Parker Group team as an Account Executive in 2007 and was promoted to Director of Sales in 2008.

Bruce currently resides in Fair Oaks, California with his wife Leslie and son Bryan.
