New York Life Accelerated Path to Management Program
Are you looking for a job where you can use your experience to propel your career into management? At New York Life, we will invest in you from the start to help you learn and grow in a financial professional career. We’ll train you in valuable skills, such as marketing, business development, recruiting and customer relationship management, and provide you with the tools you need to further your career.

What we’re looking for
We’re looking for people who want to make a lasting impact on the financial well-being of individuals, families and small businesses – motivated people who can answer yes to one of the following questions:

• Do you have sales or managerial experience in another industry?
• Have you previously run your own business?
• Do you have an MBA or other advanced degree?

In the Accelerated Path to Management Program, you’ll start off as a financial professional, learning how to sell our products, build client relationship, and meeting specific requirements* before transitioning into a management role.
You’ll then undergo a six-month intensive training program designed to prime you for success as a manager. You will use that experience to understand how to coach others to success.

What we offer

Your First Year
You’ll learn firsthand about a financial professional’s role and day-to-day work by working as a financial professional for the first year of your career journey with New York Life. We will provide you with award-winning training, access to digital tools and a comprehensive product suite.

Training and Resources
You will gain an appreciation of the rich training we provide our financial professionals to help you understand the strength & value of New York Life firsthand. Beyond this training and support, New York Life will equip you with the resources you need to succeed day-to-day, including experts on hand to answer your questions and a suite of digital sales, prospecting and marketing tools that will help you attract and retain your clients with web, social and email content.

Product Solutions
You will learn about our robust products and services that can help clients and their families achieve their financial goals.
Together with its subsidiaries, New York Life provides a range of competitive insurance and financial products, including life insurance, annuities, long term care insurance, disability income insurance and investment products such as mutual funds through our broker-dealer arm NYLIFE Securities LLC (member of FINRA and SIPC), a Licensed Insurance
Agency. You will be required to hold securities licenses and FINRA registrations and affiliate with NYLIFE Securities as a
Registered Representative before you can offer investment products.

* Specific production and licensing requirements must be met before transitioning to field management. Please ask your New York Life recruiter for details.

Your Transition to a Field Manager Role
After meeting specific requirements for the first 12 months as a financial professional*, you’ll be equipped and empowered with a specialized six-month Associate Partner training program. We’ll help you to lead and build your team of financial professionals. Throughout your career journey with New York Life, you’ll continue to have opportunities to grow and be promoted to increasingly senior levels of management.

How we will compensate you
New York Life will value and reward your hard work and success. You’ll have significant income potential, because our field managers’ compensation is directly aligned with their recruiting performance and the production level of their team of financial professionals. The average income among our 586 recruiters in 2021 was $270,890.1 Additional benefits include medical, dental, vision, a 401(k) and pension.2
