Build Your Business. Grow Your Income. Lead the Next Generation of Sales Professionals.

Heritage Insurance is looking for a motivated and ambitious Direct Sales Leader to join our growing sales organization.

This is a production-focused sales and leadership opportunity for someone who wants to build their own book of business while developing the skills to train, mentor, and lead others.

You'll work directly with small and medium-sized business owners and key decision-makers within your assigned territory. Through prospecting, B2B cold calling, face-to-face meetings, referrals, and relationship building, you'll introduce businesses to supplemental insurance solutions designed to help protect their employees and families.

As you master our sales process and demonstrate consistent success, you'll have the opportunity to take on additional responsibilities by training and mentoring new sales representatives while continuing to grow your own business.

  • Assist with hands-on, in-field training for new sales representatives.

  • Demonstrate effective prospecting, presentation, communication, and closing techniques.

  • Provide one-on-one coaching and mentorship.

  • Help new representatives learn and apply the sales process.

  • Support new team members as they develop confidence and sales skills.

  • Lead by example through your own production, professionalism, and work ethic.

  • Participate in team meetings, training calls, and leadership development opportunities.

Manage Your Territory & Performance
  • Create and manage your weekly schedule based on business-development activities and client appointments.

  • Maintain accurate prospect and client information.

  • Track and submit daily sales activity and performance metrics.

  • Communicate regularly with your sales manager and sales team.

  • Attend scheduled meetings, training sessions, and team calls.
