  • Build, maintain, and expand relationships with advisors in the assigned mass-market territory.

  • Use consultative, question-based selling techniques to understand advisors’ business practices, identify needs, and recommend appropriate solutions.

  • Present the value and benefits of insurance products, services, and advice to support advisors and increase sales.

  • Execute targeted sales campaigns, identify high-potential prospects, and develop actionable plans to convert opportunities into business.

  • Strong bilingual communication skills in English and French, both spoken and written, to support clients across different jurisdictions.

  • Excellent interpersonal and relationship-building abilities, with confidence engaging financial professionals.

  • A self-motivated, organized, and energetic approach, combined with the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet activity targets.

  • Strong problem-solving skills, creativity, and an interest in developing innovative sales and marketing approaches.

  • Familiarity with Salesforce and Microsoft Office; intermediate Excel skills are an asset.
