Senior Living Sales Specialist

Resort Lifestyle Communities

Drive High Occupancy. Close with Purpose. Make an Impact.


At Resort Lifestyle Communities (RLC)- Glen Meadows Retirement, we are seeking a proven relationship‑driven, consultative sales individual who knows how to fill communities, build urgency, and consistently drive occupancy to 95–100%+.


If you have a track record of high-volume move-ins, strong closing ratios, and measurable occupancy growth in relationship‑driven, consultative sales, this is your opportunity to support a thriving Independent Living community and make a meaningful impact.



This position is focused on:

  • Occupancy growth
  • Lead conversion
  • Closing urgency
  • Consistent follow-up and pipeline management

You will be expected to generate results, not just activity.



What You’ll Do

Drive Occupancy Growth

  • Execute a sales and marketing plan to achieve and sustain full occupancy (95–100%+)
  • Maintain daily outbound prospecting (50+ calls/day when needed)
  • Convert leads quickly through effective follow-up, urgency, and closing strategies
  • Manage pipeline in CRM with accurate, timely documentation

Close Move-Ins Consistently

  • Conduct high-impact tours that lead to decisions, not just visits
  • Identify objections and confidently overcome them
  • Secure signed leases, deposits, and completed move-in documentation

Build High-Quality Lead Generation

  • Develop referral networks with:
    • Senior living influencers
    • Community partners
    • Key decision makers

Execute events, outreach, and networking strategies that generate applicable leads

Operate Like a Sales Leader

  • Own your numbers: conversion ratios, occupancy %, and move-ins
  • Partner with leadership to adjust strategy and drive results
  • Deliver consistent reporting on KPIs and sales performance



What We’re Looking For (REQUIRED – NOT OPTIONAL)
This role is NOT a fit for candidates without experience in relationship‑driven, consultative sales.

  • Required Experience
    • 2+ years of proven relationship‑driven, consultative sales.
  • Demonstrated success in:
    • Driving occupancy growth
    • Closing high-value decisions
    • Managing a full sales funnel
  • Must-Have Skills
    • Strong closer with a sense of urgency and competitive drive
    • Ability to handle objections and ask for the sale
    • High-level emotional intelligence working with seniors and families
    • Organized, disciplined, and CRM-driven
    • Comfortable with high outbound call volume and follow-up expectations

Work Requirements

  • Tuesday–Saturday schedule, with evenings and events as needed
  • Reliable transportation for outreach and networking
  • Ability to stay active leading tours throughout the day

Benefits for Full-Time Employees

  • Competitive compensation and benefits
  • Access your pay anytime
  • $341 benefit stipend per pay period to apply toward your premiums for benefits you elect through the company:
    • Health, Dental, Vision
    • Life Insurance
    • ​Short- & Long-Term Disability
    • HSA, FSA, LSA
    • Accident & Hospital Indemnity
    • Legal & Identity Theft Protection
  • Paid Time Off
  • 401(k) with employer match
