WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR IN TEAM MEMBERS

💪  Executer

We’re currently building out many new initiatives and programs. You’ll need to quickly ramp up and start executing. We talk a lot about strategy and high-level ideas, and you should be able to independently translate ideas into action, dig into the details, and make progress toward our team’s goals.

🔄  Accountable

Our teams at Signal are small but mighty—we expect team members to work independently, grab the jump ball, and get it past the finish line. Receiving & giving feedback is crucial to accountability. You should be someone that’s comfortable with a culture of continuous feedback.

💁  Customer Centric

You’re obsessed with creating an unparalleled customer experience. You lead with compassion, anticipate customer needs and wants, and bring ease and calm to all interactions—knowing every customer interaction is an opportunity to amaze.

🤝  Collaborative

You understand how to collaborate with a variety of different people and roles, and you celebrate opportunities to reach out and work together cross-functionally and with people from diverse backgrounds.

🙋 Autonomous

You operate autonomously. You exercise independent judgment in matters of significance, take initiative with little direction, and raise your hand when collaboration and support is needed.

WHAT YOU HAVE

  • Customer service experience over the phone
  • Insurance Industry experience preferred
  • Knowledge of annuities, life insurance, and managed money preferred

WHAT WE VALUE @ SIGNAL

🌔  We’re obsessed with finding a better way. Never settle for less.

🪄  We amaze every client, every time. A great company is built one client at a time.

🏃  We act with a sense of urgency. We use our best judgment to act urgently on the right things at the right time.

👀  We raise our level of awareness. Everything starts with awareness. We’re curious and alert to what is happening around us.

🏈  We find inches everywhere around us. There are thousands of opportunities to make an impact. We take those opportunities and act.

🧭  We do the right thing. Sticking to the highest standard of integrity is not optional.

💪  We have strong opinions, loosely held. It’s not about WHO is right, it’s about WHAT is right.

❓ Simplicity is Genius. Simplicity doesn’t just clarify; it makes things better for everyone. It’s that simple.

🙏  Ideas are valued, execution is worshiped. Great ideas get you to the 50-yard line; outstanding execution gets you into the end zone.

🤝 We are the “they”. Using the word "they" leads to blame-shifting and a lack of empathy. WE are empowered to fix things, to be proactive, to find a solution.
