Surplus Funds Recovery Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Our client is a specialized financial services firm focused on helping individuals and families recover surplus funds that may be owed to them following foreclosure sales and other property-related proceedings. The organization works directly with potential beneficiaries and property owners to identify individuals who may be entitled to recover funds, guide them through the recovery process, and help ensure that the necessary documentation and requirements are completed properly. Because these cases can involve complex family dynamics, heirs, executors, and multiple decision-makers, the company takes a highly personal, hands-on approach to client service. The team is committed to building trust, maintaining consistent communication, and staying persistent throughout the process to help clients successfully move their cases forward.

We are seeking a motivated, personable, and results-driven Client Acquisition Specialist to join our growing team. This is a highly interactive, relationship-driven sales and client acquisition position for someone who is comfortable picking up the phone, meeting people face-to-face, and relentlessly following up until a client makes a decision. You will be responsible for connecting with prospective clients, explaining the company's surplus funds recovery services, identifying the appropriate decision-maker, securing signed agreements and required documentation, and working with internal teams to help move each case toward completion. The ideal candidate is an excellent communicator and listener who can quickly establish trust, navigate sensitive family situations, and creatively find ways to reach the right person. This is an in-office position based in the Hudson Valley, New York, with weekly travel throughout the tri-state area required for client meetings and visits.
