Sales & Business Development Representative in Gainesville, Georgia at Nelson Elder Care Law

Build Relationships. Grow a Network. Make an Impact.

You're not selling a product! You are helping families make important decisions about their future.

At Nelson Elder Care Law, we help families protect what they've worked hard for and navigate some of life's most difficult moments. Our work is personal, our clients matter, and we believe the experience should feel different from traditional law firms.

We're looking for a relationship-driven sales professional who is energized by meeting people, building trust, creating opportunities, and helping families.

This is a hybrid sales and business development role. Part of your time will be spent in the office meeting with families and helping them understand how we can protect them from the curveballs of life. The rest of your time will be spent in the community developing referral relationships, educating referral partners, and creating new opportunities for the firm.

Are you someone that enjoys sales, but doesn't want to spend your day making cold calls, chasing leads, or pushing a product someone doesn't need? This may be a good fit for you!

If you're motivated by meaningful work, enjoy building relationships, and like seeing the direct impact your efforts have on business growth, we'd love to meet you.
