Launch Your Career in Senior Living Sales

Build a rewarding career while learning from experienced sales leaders through IREG's structured Sales-in-Training (SIT) Program.

This paid development program combines hands-on experience, mentorship, and professional coaching to prepare future Sales Counselors for long-term success. Whether you're early in your career or bringing valuable life experience from another industry, we'll provide the training, support, and real-world experience needed to grow into a successful senior living sales professional.

About the Opportunity

The Sales-in-Training (SIT) Program is designed to provide hands-on exposure to the full senior living sales process while preparing future Sales Counselors through structured training, mentorship, and real-world experience.

In this role, you’ll work closely with experienced sales and operational leaders to learn prospect engagement, relationship development, occupancy growth strategies, community marketing, and resident experience. You’ll gain practical experience supporting tours, outreach efforts, referral development, and move-in coordination while learning how to guide prospective residents and families through important life transitions with professionalism and compassion.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is coachable, proactive, emotionally intelligent, and eager to grow within a people-centered environment.

Throughout the approximately six-month program, you'll progress through structured learning modules, receive ongoing mentorship from experienced Sales Counselors, Executive Directors, and Regional Sales Leaders, and gradually assume greater ownership of the sales process as your skills develop.

Progress is measured through hands-on experience, coaching, structured feedback, and demonstrated readiness—not simply time spent in the role. Successful graduates are placed into a Sales Counselor position within their assigned region.
