About Neilson Financial Services
Neilson cuts out brokers: it writes its own life insurance and funeral cover and sells it over the phone from contact centres, each market under its own brands (British Seniors and Smart Insurance in the UK, Cover Direct and Seniors Choice in Canada, plus Australian and New Zealand brands run from Sydney). The selling seat is an inside sales agent who handles inbound calls and outbound follow-ups with people who already asked about cover, talks through the policy options and closes on the call against individual and team targets, with sales quality scored alongside volume; no posting involves cold calling. Agent roles are open to people coming from retail, hospitality or call centre work, with classroom training before the first call, and promotions move agents up a pay ladder. Above them, sales team managers run a floor of advisors through one-to-one coaching, team meetings, incentives and weekly and monthly performance trackers, and the Canadian manager postings prefer a life licence with LLQP (French and English is an asset in Calgary). Its sellers work from offices in England (Ashford in Kent, Gloucester), Canada (Toronto, Calgary) and Sydney.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

Pay at Neilson Financial Services
Stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30From our research: stated by the company, checked 30 Oct 2026
Read from its postings on 30 Oct 2026: Every sales posting prints its pay in local currency. UK agent postings give a base salary and a separate uncapped OTE band, and add that base rises after the first months for agents who progress; the Sydney agent posting gives a base plus superannuation and a first-year OTE range, with salary paid fortnightly and a bonus paid monthly. The Canadian sales team manager postings state only a base salary range and say nothing about a team bonus or override. Ask how the agent commission is calculated (per policy, per premium or per target band), how far the quality score can cut it, and for managers, what variable pay sits on top of the base.
