Life and Health Insurance Advisor
Our financial centre is looking for a life and health insurance advisor to join our dynamic team.

The Profession

The role of a financial security advisor involves meeting with people to put a plan in place to help them achieve their dreams of a home, enjoyable leisure time and having an active retirement.

Advisors also offer solutions to protect their clients from financial loss due to accident or disease, and ensure a family's financial security when an income earner dies.

It is important work.

The Industry
As a professional, your service to the public is financial security planning.

As a business person, you have to market and promote yourself in your community as any other professional service provider in order to meet potential clients.

  • Good time management - there will be many demands on your time; you can determine the right balance between time spent on your revenue generation and other business tasks
  • Active listener - great speakers are idolized but great listeners are forever cherished. You are able to listen to a person then offer them financial solutions at the heart of their concerns
A life insurance licence is required but we will help qualified applicants attain it.

About Desjardins Financial Security Independent Network


At his home in Lévis, Quebec, Alphonse Desjardins met with a small group of fellow citizens and presented his idea for a "people's bank." The goal was to provide financial services to working families.

On December 6, 1900, they opened their doors for the first time.
