Job description

Central Texas (residence or relocation required)


Organization:
The Kilpatrick Group (TKG)


Reports To:
Director of Sales

Role Overview


The Sales Development Manager leads the recruiting input, onboarding, training, coaching, and performance management of Certified Managed Agents (CMAs) and Consolidator preneed agents across Central Texas.

This field-driven leader ensures agents are equipped, coached, and producing in alignment with TKG growth goals and funeral-home partnerships. Success requires in-market leadership, clear accountability, and data-driven coaching that increases appointments, closing ratios, and total preneed volume.

The SDM builds systems that reward results—not activity—removes barriers to performance, and strengthens collaboration between sales and operations.

Key Responsibilities

Provide input on CMA hiring, talent quality, and workforce planning.
Lead onboarding and in-field training for all CMAs and Consolidator agents.
Conduct weekly team huddles and one-on-one coaching.
Coach to appointments, close rate, production, and pipeline discipline.
Complete quarterly in-person visits with each Consolidator CMA.
Manage agents to defined KPIs, implementing improvement plans or personnel changes when needed.

What Success Looks Like

Faster transition from recruiting to active selling and reduced reload time.
Stronger training, accountability, and in-market coaching culture.
Improved alignment between funeral homes and sales teams.

Measurable growth in:
Average contract value
Sales per location
Total Consolidator preneed production
A team of high-performing, results-driven agents supported by outcome-based systems.

Qualifications

Required

Residence in or relocation to Central Texas.
Proven ability to coach, train, and hold sales professionals accountable to metrics.
Willingness to travel for field leadership and quarterly visits.
Strong communication, virtual leadership, and CRM performance management skills.

Preferred


Experience in preneed sales, funeral-home distribution, or insurance sales leadership, or a proven record of building high-performing sales teams through disciplined hiring, obstacle removal, and results-based incentives.

Ability to scale production across multiple markets using KPIs and dashboards.
