Position Overview
AMBA is hiring a Call Center L&H Sales Specialist to join a high-volume, outbound-driven inside sales team focused exclusively on Life and Supplemental Health insurance products. This role is built for insurance sales professionals who thrive on the phone, know how to sell L&H coverage consultatively, and are motivated by clear metrics and strong earning potential.
You'll be provided with warm, company-generated leads from established member associations — your job is to convert those conversations into enrolled, protected members through consistent, high-quality outbound calling.
This is not an inbound, appointment-setting, or account-management role. It's a sales role, first and foremost, built around L&H product expertise and daily outbound activity.
About AMBA
AMBA partners with public employee, alumni, and professional occupation associations nationwide to deliver Life and Supplemental Health insurance benefits to their members — supporting millions of members across all 50 states, including some of the country's largest retired public employee associations.
What You Will Do
- Make 150+ outbound calls per day to member leads provided by the company
- Deliver consultative L&H sales presentations, matching members to the right Life and Supplemental Health coverage for their needs
- Educate members on plan options, benefits, and enrollment requirements with full product and compliance accuracy
- Close sales and complete enrollments over the phone, managing the full sales conversation from open to close
- Handle objections and rejection professionally while maintaining a member-first, compliant experience
- Manage a personal sales pipeline and document all activity accurately in Salesforce
- Take inbound calls as volume allows, while keeping outbound dialing and sales conversion as the core responsibility
- Meet or exceed daily activity benchmarks and monthly sales quotas
Work Environment
This role operates in a structured, metrics-driven call center environment with clear daily expectations for outbound call volume, talk time, conversions, and documentation accuracy. Success requires consistency, resilience, and comfort with repetition.
Requirements:
What Success Looks Like
Success in this role is driven by sales activity and conversion, not just call volume. Top performers combine:
- High daily outbound call volume and talk time
- Strong close rates on L&H product presentations
- Consistent pipeline management and CRM documentation
- Reliable, quota-hitting performance month over month
- This Role May Not Be a Fit If You
- Prefer inbound-only, warm-transfer, or appointment-based sales
- Are looking for account management or a relationship-only (non-quota) role
- Need a highly flexible, low-structure workday
- Are not comfortable with frequent, high-volume dialing
What You Bring
- Active Life & Health insurance license preferred (or willingness/ability to obtain licensure within a defined onboarding timeframe)
- 2+ years of insurance sales experience, ideally in L&H or a comparable high-volume call center sales environment
- Proven ability to sell consultatively and close over the phone
- Strong objection-handling, listening, and communication skills
- Comfort with fast-paced, goal-driven sales environments
- CRM proficiency; Salesforce experience a plus
