For the consultative sales professional, this is a chance to grow your career with an organization looking to change the world of life insurance brokerage. As an exceptional Sales Associate for Provada, you are joining a company with over 70 years of industry experience, a clear vision for innovative growth, an excellent reputation throughout the industry, and a great group of people. You will be recruiting financial advisors and advisory firms to use our life insurance brokerage services and our recently released unique process, The Integrated Advisor Solution^SM.

We are fully committed to strengthening our market leadership across the United States and define a brand new segment within the insurance industry. If you are interested in being considered for a position with Provada, please complete our application and we will contact you as soon as we've reviewed your information.

Provada is headquartered in San Francisco, California. We're a small, growing firm with a presence from Hawaii to Maine. We dramatically increase revenues of our clients while making it easier for them to transact life insurance business. Our clients benefit from the first integrated brokerage, marketing, and technology solution available in the industry. Our origins go back to 1937 helping to ensure we have a strong values system throughout the organization and a company culture where we work hard and play hard.

Your primary mission as a Sales Associate is to bring in new clients to Provada from within the life insurance, property & casualty insurance, broker/dealer, financial planner, and accounting segments of the financial services industry. There are no geographic limitations. While we intend to hire inside sales professionals to support our clientele, you will initially be expected to manage client relationships on an ongoing basis and grow those client relationships exponentially. So not only do you have to be driven to seek out and recruit new relationships, but to succeed in this position you will also need to be able to cultivate those relationships.

Since our clients and prospects are located throughout the country, and we participate in industry trade meetings several times a year, you will be expected to spend up to 20% of your time on the road. We expect our sales associates to bring in at least $1M in new premium within the first 12 months. With a typical sales cycle of 3 to 9 months, you'll have to come out of the gate strong and you'll have the support and resources necessary to succeed.

A background in life insurance or at least in the financial services industry is important. Comfort with Salesforce.com and Microsoft  Office is important to get you off to a quick start. But above all, you must have a strong desire to succeed, work intelligently while working hard, fully understand and believe in our business model, and be devoted to clients while being a helpful member of the Provada team.
