They’re looking for a Senior Sales Manager to join their growing Toronto team as a founding sales leader.
About the Role
- Hire, onboard, and coach a high-energy team of 5–8 outbound sales reps
- Define, implement, and iterate on playbooks for selling AI solutions to small and local business owners
- Turn early traction into a repeatable, scalable revenue engine
- Serve as a player-coach — joining calls, shaping strategy, and teaching by doing
- Collaborate closely with Product, Marketing, RevOps, and People teams to align GTM execution
This role is hybrid in Toronto (4 days in-office) and requires someone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves, building from scratch, and driving measurable results.

- Player-coach mentality — you lead by example
- Detail-oriented, process-minded, and comfortable in scrappy environments
- Curious about using AI tools to enhance sales execution and productivity
- Excited by building teams and motions, not just maintaining them
Nice to Have

- A track record of working cross-functionally to drive GTM success
Why Candidates Love This Opportunity
