Ideal candidate will be located in the Palisades area of Los Angeles.

As the Business Development Manager – Casualty Loss, you will own and expand Centura’s Casualty Loss (CCS) lead generation strategy, drive referral activity, and ensure strategic alignment between impacted communities and Centura’s long-term growth objectives. Operating with empathy and discretion, this role owns the front of the funnel: sourcing prospects, uncovering client needs, articulating CCS’ value, and scheduling qualified introductions with our Case Advisor and Operations Team.

After the warm hand-off, the BDM remains a relationship anchor, staying close through the engagement, soliciting referrals, and keeping highly qualified individuals warm for future wealth and investment management opportunities. This role requires a consultative sales approach and the ability to thrive in high-stakes networking environments to grow the firm’s client base, firm revenue, and market share.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Identify, source, and engage new referrals for Casualty Loss business.
• Maintain and deepen relationships with community groups through consistent follow‑up, value‑add touchpoints, and accountability‑driven communication.
• Create and execute impacted community outreach strategies, including messaging, and campaign scheduling.
• Collaborate with marketing and planning teams to align external messaging with audience needs and expectations as well as CCS internal capabilities.

Retail Business Development

• Conduct initial conversations with prospects in a manner that is empathetic, professional, and respectful of the emotional weight of their circumstances.
• Uncover the prospect's loss specifics, insurance posture, tax situation, rebuild or relocation plans, and broader financial context to assess fit.
• Articulate CCS' value proposition and how the firm helps impacted families quantify and substantiate their Casualty Loss claim, and why working with CCS produces meaningfully better outcomes.
• Handle objections with credibility, knowing when to answer directly, when to defer to the Case Advisor, and when to bring in additional expertise.
• Schedule qualified prospects for a 1st meeting with the Case Advisor and brief the Advisor in advance on the prospect's situation, motivations, and any pertinent details.
• Execute a deliberate, warm hand‑off by attending introductory meetings as appropriate so the prospect feels supported, not passed off, as the engagement moves into qualification and operations.
• Maintain durable, long‑term client relationships after the Casualty Loss engagement concludes through structured outreach, personal touchpoints, and community presence.
• Solicit and convert referrals from satisfied clients.
• Identify and warm highly qualified clients for wealth and investment management services delivered by Centura Wealth Advisory (CWA), coordinating with CWA advisors on the timing, framing, and introduction of qualified clients to ensure a seamless cross‑firm experience.

Tracking & Accountability

• Own key performance metrics, including referral engagement, meeting‑to‑close ratios, and revenue from sourced relationships.
• Maintain accurate CRM records and pipeline reporting to support transparency, forecasting, and strategic planning.
• Analyze market conditions, competitor activity, and industry trends to identify new opportunities and inform strategic decisions.
• Provide regular business development performance reports covering client acquisition, revenue growth, and market expansion.
• Perform other duties as assigned, contributing to a collaborative and high‑performing team environment.
