Job description

We are building our next generation of sales leaders.

This is not a general sales position. It is a structured management development track designed for competitive, coachable individuals who want to master sales first, then earn the opportunity to lead a team.

Our agency has been established for decades and is expanding. We are looking for people who want more than a paycheck. We want professionals who are willing to be developed, held to a high standard, and promoted based on performance.

What This Role Involves

As a Sales Management Trainee, you will begin by learning the sales process from the ground up. You will work directly with individuals and families, develop client acquisition skills, and build a book of business.

As you demonstrate consistency and leadership ability, you will be trained in:

• Coaching and developing new representatives
• Leading team meetings and training sessions
• Tracking performance metrics and accountability
• Client retention and long term relationship management
• Business planning and growth strategy

Promotion into leadership is performance based, not time based.

What You Will Do Initially

• Meet with clients face to face to review coverage and needs
• Present solutions clearly and confidently
• Complete applications accurately and professionally
• Follow up to build long term client relationships
• Participate in structured training and leadership development sessions

What We Are Looking For

• Competitive and goal oriented mindset
• Strong personal accountability
• Coachable and open to feedback
• Professional communication skills
• Interest in leading and developing others
• Reliable transportation and ability to pass a background check

What You Can Expect

• Structured sales and leadership training
• Direct mentorship from agency leadership
• A culture built around growth, resilience, and accountability

This position is best suited for someone who wants to build a long term career and earn leadership responsibility, not someone looking for a temporary role.
