The Role
As a Graduate Sales Associate at Octopus Legacy, you'll begin your career guiding people through one of the hardest moments of
their lives - and helping them feel calm, supported and confident about the practical steps that follow a death.
This is a sales and customer service role at heart, and the perfect launchpad for an ambitious graduate. You'll learn how to be
the first voice our customers hear after a bereavement, the trusted person who explains how we can take the weight of probate and
estate administration off their shoulders, and the problem-solver who helps them choose the service that's genuinely right for
them. You'll develop the ability to blend empathy with commercial awareness: supporting people through grief while guiding them to
the right decision and working towards your targets.
You don't need any prior experience. If you've got the drive to build a career in sales and the empathy to handle sensitive
conversations, we'll teach you everything else - including everything you need to know about probate.
We want to be honest - it won't always be easy. You'll be speaking to people at the most difficult and emotional moments in their
lives, often when they need guidance and reassurance the most. It takes resilience, calm under pressure, and the ability to stay
warm and clear even when conversations are tough. But if you're someone who finds purpose in helping people when it matters most -
and you thrive in a fast-paced, target-driven environment - this role can be an incredibly rewarding place to start.
From day one you'll be given real ownership, proper training, and the freedom to be human - no rigid scripts, no robotic call
targets. As part of our founding probate sales team, you'll join at a pivotal time, with genuine room to grow into more senior
roles as you develop.
Our values are simple: Customer-First. Work hard. Stay optimistic.
What You'll Do
warmth, and confidence.
through.
confident, informed decision.
support quality first.
Who Are You?
No prior probate, sales or financial experience needed - just the right attitude and a willingness to learn.

Our Mission
Octopus Legacy is the place to plan for death and find support after loss. When people think about planning for death they think
about wills, life insurance and funerals. We take these cold processes and turn them into something more human. Share more than
money: leave voice notes, music, recipes. Shape a legacy that connects you while you're here. And after you're gone.
Founded by Sam after his mum died suddenly, we're a group of people who work in death because we've been affected by it. We know
the difference a good plan makes, and what it's like when there isn't one.
Death can come between us, leaving mess, legal fees, frustration. But it can also make us stronger. We see a world where people
talk openly about death, and work out the real meaning of legacy. We're here to make that world happen.
Benefits
We know that to be truly innovative, we need to have a diverse team around us. That is why Octopus Legacy is committed to creating
an inclusive environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
