Responsibilities

• Maintain a strong, current understanding of the youth and amateur sports landscape - including trends, key organizations, and the evolving risk environment athletes and administrators face
• Build and manage a strong, active pipeline across target segments using our CRM/AMS (Applied Epic) and sales enablement tools, creating sales reports and projections
• Own the full sales cycle: outreach, discovery, risk assessment presentation, proposal, negotiation, and close

• Review insurance applications for completeness and accuracy - this role owns what it sells, and getting the details right is part of delivering on our promise to clients
• Accurately maintain all prospect, client, and deal activity in our AMS and internal systems - without exception and without being asked twice. Understanding this discipline is the backbone of a successful sales strategy, and it directly translates to correct billing, seamless renewals, and clients who trust us
