About Valmark Financial Group:
Valmark Financial Group is one of the nation’s leading independent financial services firms, providing wealth management, insurance, and financial planning solutions through a network of affiliated advisors. For decades, Valmark has combined deep technical expertise with a collaborative, advisor-first culture — and we’re growing.
The Opportunity:
This is a rare chance to be a founding contributor to an innovative initiative. As Valmark expands its InForce Insurance Solutions service offering, we’re looking for a motivated insurance professional to take the lead in turning existing client relationships and maturing policies into meaningful outcomes — for clients and for your career.
You’ll operate with real autonomy, supported by industry-leading technology, Valmark’s carrier relationships, and a collaborative team that has your back. If you’re energized by the idea of building something special inside an established firm — with the resources and stability to do it right — this role was designed for you.
What We Offer:
- Competitive base salary plus performance-based incentive tied to production results
- A senior, growth-oriented role with a clear path to greater ownership and responsibility
- Access to industry-leading platforms, carrier relationships, and in-force data tools
- A collaborative, client-first culture where your contributions are visible and valued
- Professional development support — we invest in designations, licensure, and continuing education
- Stable, structured environment with the creative latitude of an “Intrapreneur”
What You’ll Do:
Business Development & Client Engagement
- Engage existing Valmark clients and affiliated advisors to identify planning needs and present life insurance solutions stemming from policy reviews and firm-generated opportunities
- Lead proactive outreach to clients with underperforming or at-risk policies, and to accounts that no longer have an active advisor relationship
- Respond to inbound inquiries, qualify opportunities, and provide timely, thoughtful solutions
- Build and maintain trusted relationships with affiliated advisors, trust companies, and other institutional partners — including serving as the lead insurance advisor for an existing strategic partner
- Drive client action through clear, professional communication — without high-pressure tactics
Case Design & Insurance Strategy
- Review in-force policy data and run illustrations to identify planning gaps, lapse risk, or conversion and replacement opportunities
- Prepare policy reviews and client-ready presentations in collaboration with Valmark’s Insurance Marketing and Policy Management teams
- Apply Valmark’s Life Insurance 10X philosophy, carrier relationships, and product portfolio to develop appropriate, client-centered solutions
- Coordinate with internal teams — including Policy Management, Life Settlement Advocacy, Insurance Marketing, Underwriting, and New Business — to move cases from opportunity through placement
Pipeline & Technology Management
- Maintain accurate records in Valmark’s CRM, tracking opportunities, activity, and case status through the full sales cycle
- Leverage in-force data tools and carrier platforms to research policy details, run illustrations, and support presentations
- Help shape the outreach workflows, templates, and follow-up sequences that will define this practice for years to come
What You Bring:
Required
- 5+ years of experience in life insurance, financial services, or a closely related field, with meaningful exposure to life insurance products, policy administration, or client service
- Active Life Insurance license (required at hire or within 60 days)
- Demonstrated experience working directly with clients or advisors — whether in sales, case management, or advisory support
- Comfort with technology platforms including CRM tools, Microsoft Office, and carrier illustration systems
- Strong organization and follow-through: you can manage multiple open cases without losing accuracy or momentum
Core Competencies:
- Insurance Product Knowledge —
