The posting

Senior Living Sales Specialist

Wage: $80,000-$90,000 (plus bonus structure)

The Sales Specialist is a results-driven professional responsible for driving new resident move-ins and increasing occupancy. This role steps into communities—during transitions, vacancies, or periods of under performance—to execute sales strategies with urgency and independence. Success is measured by move-ins, not activity.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities

  • Move-In Execution: Prioritize converting inquiries into move-ins. Identify pipeline barriers, conduct discovery-based tours, and close sales with persistence and professionalism.
  • Focused Sales Activity: Maintain high-volume sales outreach (calls, follow-ups, tours) while remaining insulated from workplace "noise" or internal distractions.
  • Sales Process Mastery: Utilize the Jaybird Sales Academy playbook and behaviors of success to manage the CRM and database with high accuracy.
  • Business Development: Conduct weekly outreach and networking to meet professional referral and event targets.
  • Community Readiness: Ensure first impressions are elite by auditing model apartments and community tour paths; address barriers to "tour-readiness" immediately.
  • Collaboration: Partner with regional leadership and the marketing department to develop and execute community-specific action plans.
  • Independent Ownership: Manage the entire sales life cycle with limited oversight, providing weekly recaps and proactive updates to regional teams.

Skills & Qualifications

  • Experience: 3–5 years in senior living sales, marketing, or operations.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience.
  • Communication: Exceptional interpersonal skills; ability to build trust quickly with prospects and internal teams.
  • Technical Proficiency: Mastery of CRM databases, Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook), and mobile operating systems.
  • Attributes: High emotional maturity, resilience, and a solution-oriented mindset.

Physical Requirements & Working Conditions

  • Mobility: Ability to stand, walk, and sit for extended periods; must be able to lift/move up to 50 lbs.
  • Travel: Valid driver’s license required for extensive travel between communities.
  • Environment: Primarily indoor, climate-controlled settings; requires frequent interaction with families and seniors who may be under stress.
  • Safety: This is a safety-sensitive position requiring high levels of focus and discretion.

The Perks That Matter:

  • Competitive salary and bonus opportunities
  • Health, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance
  • 401(k) with match
  • Paid time off and flexible hours
  • Employee assistance program and on-demand pay
  • Career growth in a fast-growing company

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
