About New York Life
The corporate career site carries New York Life's salaried sales seats, separate from the agent career it recruits for through its general offices, and they sit in three businesses: Group Benefit Solutions (NYL GBS), Agency and Institutional Annuities. GBS sales representatives and senior sales representatives win group life, disability, absence management, accident, critical illness and hospital indemnity cases from employers in a territory, working through brokers and benefits consultants with heavy travel, while national account executives renew and grow a book of large national accounts. Its entry door is the GBS ASCEND program, where associates train on a regional sales desk quoting, running RFPs and handling renewals for small and mid-sized employer groups before moving into a sales representative or account executive seat, with a summer sales internship alongside. Agency's home-office sellers serve the captive agent force rather than consumers: investment solutions consultants wholesale annuities and mutual funds to agents in a zone, planning and solutions consultants join advisors in client meetings to lift planning-led sales, and zone sales officers lead field growth. Institutional Annuities adds regional sales directors who sell stable value investment-only products through retirement plan consultants and intermediaries, and the search also returns general office service representatives, marketing and AI roles that are not selling jobs; every seat is in the US.

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.
