This is a full-time opportunity designed for an ambitious professional ready to kickstart or advance their career in a structured, performance-driven environment.

The Role

In this position, you will serve as the engine of the sales department, focusing on in-house and outbound prospecting to build a robust pipeline of potential clients.

Qualifications

● A genuine passion for sales, business development, and outbound prospecting. ● Confidence in initiating conversations with new prospects and building immediate rapport. ● A data-driven mindset with a comfort level for performance metrics and personal accountability. ● Exceptional communication skills, both in written correspondence and verbal dialogue. ● A long-term career focus with an interest in moving into management or leadership. ● Note: Prior experience in financial services or insurance is helpful but not mandatory.

What’s In It For You?

● Financial Reward: Competitive base pay supplemented by performance-based incentives. ● Comprehensive Benefits: Access to Extended Health, Dental, and Vision care. ● Support: Access to an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) and ongoing mentorship. ● Culture & Perks: Frequent company events, on-site parking, and a professional, collaborative atmosphere. ● Growth: A transparent career development path within a fast-moving organization.
