Skybranch Sales is the direct sales function of the Skybranch channel, completing end-to-end product purchases for customers who have confirmed they wish to proceed with Great Eastern but prefer not to be assigned a dedicated personal financial representative.
The Skybranch Sales Team Lead is responsible for the quality assurance, compliance oversight, and operational management of the Sales team. As the primary endorser for all submissions, this role is the last line of quality control before a policy application is submitted. The Team Lead does not personally conduct sales — their mandate is to ensure that every submission made by the Sales Executives meets GE's standards and regulatory requirements.
Key Responsibilities
- Submission Endorsement & Quality Assurance: Review and endorse all policy applications submitted by Sales Executives before submission. Ensure every application meets GE's advisory standards and all applicable regulatory requirements for non-face-to-face sales.

- Licensing & Continuing Education Oversight: Ensure all Sales Executives maintain valid regulatory licences and meet ongoing CPD and product knowledge requirements for Life and General Insurance at all times.
- Sales Operations & SLA Management: Oversee the end-to-end sales process for all inbound referrals, ensuring response and engagement timelines are consistently met. Monitor the use of virtual meeting platforms and manage any planned platform transitions.
- Team Development & Supervision: Coach and develop Sales Executives through regular performance reviews, quality assessments of completed engagements, and targeted training recommendations.
- Post-Submission Oversight: Ensure Sales Executives complete all required follow-up with customers from submission through to policy inception, rejection, or withdrawal.
- Cross-Functional Cover: Provide operational cover for the Skybranch Contact Team Lead when required, supporting continuity across both teams.
- Possess minimum 5 years of experience in insurance sales or financial advisory, with at least 2 years in a supervisory or team lead role.
- RNF licensed — mandatory. Must be equally or more qualified than the Sales Executives under supervision.
- Licensed to give financial advice and conduct sales of Life Insurance and General Insurance.
