About Beam
Beam was founded in 2012 by three engineers who saw the opportunity to modernize the dental benefits industry using technology. The first product was the Beam Brush, which was one of the earliest examples of the Internet of Things in healthcare.
Today, Beam Benefits is available in 40+ states and has expanded beyond dental. Beam is now simplifying and modernizing a robust suite of ancillary employee benefits through an intuitive digital platform, self-service tools, AI-powered pricing, support from Beam’s helpful representatives, and a unique Beam Perks™ rewards program. This winning combination allows us to deliver a simple, smart, and wellness-focused experience for brokers, employers, and members.

• Working in a complex and dynamic business, simultaneously operating across insurance, CPG manufacturing, IoT, and dental services
• Being supported and encouraged to improve every day by working collaboratively with a diversely skilled team
• Engaging in an energizing, committed, and fun work environment
• Being empowered as an ‘owner’ of your subject matter and work
• Joining in our mission to forever change the way people access benefit
• Being a person of high character, high EQ, and amazing talent
What We’re Looking For
A Sales Representative is a critical in-market (Atlanta) sales role at Beam, responsible for establishing and expanding as many partnerships as possible with brokerages in a territory. This starts with the discovery and pursuit of new prospective brokerages and working with them to help them understand Beam’s differentiators in order to expand their business. Various tactics (e.g. cold calling, email, web conferencing) are deployed to develop the relationship and educate brokers to work through a high volume of proposals to win new clients. The goal is to both establish a high number of broker partners as well as secure repeat business from some brokers as quickly as possible.
At a high-growth company like Beam, there is an expectation of every role to continually contribute to improving processes and best practices internally, and our data-driven approach requires a high level of organization and accuracy of sales data -- both are true for the Sales Rep as well.
We need Sales Reps who can quickly learn the dental insurance business and can help lead Beam’s growth in the Atlanta, Georgia market. A successful Rep at Beam thinks strategically and executes tactically, adapts quickly, and does whatever it takes to succeed, displaying true GRITT along the way.
