Build a Career in Life Insurance (Not Just a Job)

Looking for a high-income career where your work genuinely impacts people’s lives?
We are a well-established, high-performing Desjardins agency in Hamilton seeking a Life Insurance-focused Sales Representative to join our growing team.
This role is ideal for someone who wants to earn above-average income, build expertise in financial protection, and grow into a long-term advisory career.
What You’ll Earn
  • Base salary starting at $45,000–$55,000
  • Uncapped commission on life insurance sales
  • Realistic Year 1 earnings: $60,000–$100,000+
  • Bonuses for performance and growth
Top performers quickly exceed six figures
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Strong focus on life insurance (higher commissions)
  • Warm leads + existing client base opportunities
  • Ability to also obtain OTL license and cross-sell home & auto
  • Full training + licensing support (LLQP + OTL if needed)
  • Hybrid flexibility (in-office + remote options)
  • Clear path to advanced advisory / financial services roles
What You'll Do
  • Meet with clients to assess life insurance and financial protection needs
  • Present and recommend customized life insurance solutions
  • Work with existing clients and inbound leads (no cold calling grind)
  • Educate clients on long-term financial protection strategies
  • Follow up consistently to close business and build relationships
  • Cross-sell home and auto policies where appropriate
Who You Are
You’ll succeed if you:
  • Are motivated by income and personal growth
  • Enjoy helping people make important financial decisions
  • Are comfortable in a sales-driven environment
  • Build trust easily and communicate clearly
  • Are proactive, disciplined, and follow through
Requirements
  • Sales or customer-facing experience preferred
  • LLQP licensed (or willing to obtain – we support training)
  • Willingness to obtain OTL license (asset for cross-selling)
  • Strong communication and relationship-building skills
  • Ability to manage follow-ups and client details effectively
  • Reliable transportation and availability for occasional evenings
Benefits & Perks
  • 3 weeks paid vacation (increasing with tenure)
  • 5 paid personal/sick days
  • Health, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • Flexible schedule + hybrid work options
  • Supportive team environment with proven systems
About Our Agency
  • 18+ years in business
  • Award-winning performance within the Desjardins network
  • Full-service insurance and financial solutions
  • Strong team culture focused on growth, accountability, and success
Why Life Insurance?
Life insurance is one of the highest-impact, highest-income opportunities in financial services.
In this role, you’ll help families protect what matters most—while building a career with uncapped earning potential.
