Your role is pivotal in executing our strategic direction, increasing revenue and profitability, and enhancing the overall performance of our North American division.

You’ll report through to our Global CEO, based in Brisbane, Australia.

Some of your key accountabilities will be:

• Strategic Business Growth:
  • Implement sales and marketing strategies for profitable growth
  • Conduct sales calls and software demos with prospects, provide real-time coaching, and elevate performance of sales team
  • Oversee expansion into the U.S. market, ensuring alignment with global objectives

  • Champion the talents of both the Vancouver and Brisbane offices

About You

The successful candidate will have 5+ years of experience in a similar role, with a proven track record in growing the revenue and profitability of a business of a similar size/scale.

We’re looking for someone with strong sales and marketing experience who can guide the North American arm of our business toward achieving our ambitious growth and profitability goals. 

Given the level of prior experience we’re looking for, we expect the successful candidate will have experience in recruiting people for the previous businesses they worked for. We want you to draw upon that experience to relate to our clients and their challenges/needs. We value “hands-on” leaders who are keen to be deeply involved in the business - for example, joining sales meetings with potential clients. 

Experience in SaaS will be well regarded, but is not essential. Experience selling to companies in the USA will also be highly regarded.

Please have a read through our Company Values and see if they align with yours.
