4643 – SALES DIRECTOR – GROWING INDEPENDENT LIVING COMMUNITY – NORTH JERSEY AREA!

North Jersey / Near Morristown

MedBest is currently recruiting for a Sales Director opportunity with a growing Independent Living community in the North Jersey area. This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role focused on driving occupancy growth, overseeing the sales process, and managing a small sales team.

The organization is looking for someone with senior living sales leadership experience who is polished, relationship-driven, comfortable presenting, and able to both lead a team and personally contribute to sales efforts. For someone with a solid background at the Director level within senior living sales, this is viewed as a very manageable and well-supported opportunity.

The Opportunity

This role oversees sales efforts for a smaller Independent Living community, with major investment and expansion already underway. The community is adding newly renovated Independent Living apartments, creating significant opportunity for continued occupancy growth and deposit generation over the next several years.

The environment offers an upscale, mid-century modern feel in a beautiful setting — large enough to offer growth opportunity, but still highly manageable from an operational and sales perspective.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and manage the full Independent Living sales process

• Drive occupancy growth and maintain a strong sales pipeline

• Conduct tours, presentations, relationship-building, and closing activity

• Evaluate, coach, and potentially rebuild the current sales team

• Partner with corporate marketing on events and outreach initiatives

• Host on-site and off-site sales events tied to the expansion project

• Continue building momentum and deposits tied to the renovation and repositioning efforts

Why This Role Stands Out

• Smaller, more digestible community environment

• Beautiful campus with upscale amenities and strong growth story

• Significant investment and expansion already underway

• New amenities being added including pool, golf simulator, outdoor spaces, and fitness center

• Strong leadership support and approachable Executive Director

• Nonprofit organization with long-standing reputation in New Jersey

• Broader organizational growth across home care, hospice, physician services, therapy, and senior living

• Opportunity to step into a visible leadership role with real impact on occupancy and team performance

What They’re Looking For

• Prior Director-level senior living sales experience

• Strong Independent Living sales background preferred

• Ability to actively sell, not just oversee marketing efforts

• Comfortable leading, coaching, and holding a sales team accountable

• Strong presentation and relationship-building skills

• Local or reasonably commutable candidates strongly preferred

Compensation

• Competitive base

• Commission structure plus team bonus component

• Strong long-term growth opportunity within the organization
