This remote-friendly role emphasizes consultative selling, pipeline management, and measurable sales performance within a small, collaborative team.

Key responsibilities:

  • Conduct a high volume of outbound and inbound interactions using a consistent customer-experience approach and consultative sales techniques.
  • Qualify leads, perform needs assessments, present tailored life and health insurance options, and close sales that align with customer objectives.
  • Pursue upsell, cross-sell, and retention opportunities to increase account value and revenue.
  • Maintain and progress pipeline activity to achieve daily, weekly, and monthly sales and conversion targets.
  • Strive for first-call resolution by troubleshooting, coordinating timely follow-up, and escalating issues when appropriate.

  • Clear and professional verbal and written communication skills with a strong customer-service orientation.
  • Comfortable with basic PC tasks and able to quickly learn contact-center, CRM, and sales productivity tools.
  • Able to multitask and maintain productivity in a fast-paced, high-volume sales environment.

Performance expectations:

  • Meet or exceed established targets for sales, conversion rates, customer satisfaction, and productivity.
  • Consistently maintain accurate CRM records and pipeline visibility to support forecasting and territory management.
  • Demonstrate responsiveness to coaching, continuous improvement, and readiness for increased responsibility and leadership.

What we offer:
