About Solink

At Solink, our mission is to safeguard what matters most. We provide businesses with the tools to know sooner and act faster by transforming video security into real-time operational insights.

Our cloud-based platform integrates seamlessly with your existing cameras and systems, turning them into intelligent sensors that detect and interpret key moments. This empowers teams to make data-driven decisions, enhance security, and improve operational efficiency.

Trusted by over 30,000 locations across 32+ countries - including brands like McDonald’s and JYSK - Solink delivers clarity when it counts. Our solutions help businesses reduce shrink, optimize performance, and respond proactively to potential threats.

We're growing rapidly, earning industry recognition, and scaling with purpose. We’ve been recognized by Deloitte’s Fast 50 and Fast 500, Business Intelligence Group, and as one of Ottawa’s Best Places to Work. And we’re just getting started!

The Role

We’re looking for ambitious and consultative sales professionals to join our high-performing team focused on the Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) segment—partnering with national and mid-sized brands operating at scale. You’ll be working with sophisticated buyers and helping franchise systems and multi-location operators modernize their operations with Solink’s technology.

If you’re a self-starter who thrives on autonomy, relationship-building, and navigating complex sales cycles—this is the role for you. You should bring proven experience prospecting and closing SaaS deals, particularly with multi-site or franchise-based customers.

Do you enjoy mapping out stakeholder groups and tailoring your pitch to a VP of Ops or IT leader? Are you motivated by consultative selling, competitive environments, and solving real-world challenges for brands with 50, 100, or 500+ locations?

If you’re energized by strategic selling and want to help transform the way QSR brands operate—while working with a driven, collaborative team—this opportunity is for YOU.

What You’ll Do

• Prospect with Purpose: Identify and engage with mid-sized and national QSR brands—particularly those with complex franchise operations or 50+ locations. You’ll target ideal customers using a data-driven, insight-led approach that aligns Solink’s value with the operational pain points of the QSR space.

• Own the Full Sales Cycle: Lead deals from start to finish: prospecting, discovery, demos, ROI presentation, and negotiations. You will independently manage your territory and pipeline, with a focus on creating and closing high-impact opportunities.

• Deliver High-Impact Demos: Present Solink’s platform with a focus on business outcomes—improving operations, reducing shrink, and increasing visibility across hundreds of locations. Your demos will be tailored to multiple stakeholders, from franchisees to VPs of Operations and Loss Prevention.

• Hit (and Exceed) Your Targets: Achieve and surpass your annual quota by focusing on quality pipeline generation, thoughtful engagement with multi-location operators, and strategic deal execution.

• Have Fun Doing It: Be part of a high-performance team that values learning, accountability, and celebrating wins—together.

What You Bring

Must Have

• Full-Cycle Sales Experience: Minimum 2–4 years of closing experience in SaaS or tech, with a track record of running complex sales from prospecting to close.

• QSR or Multi-Location Selling Experience: Proven success selling to multi-site operators or franchise systems, ideally with 50+ locations.

• Quota Ownership: Demonstrated success exceeding quotas, with experience managing deal sizes in the $30K–$60K ARR range or higher.

• Strategic Selling: Ability to navigate longer sales cycles with multiple stakeholders and align value across departments (e.g., Ops, IT, Finance, LP).

• Enterprise-Lite Rigor: Comfortable building and working from a structured playbook or territory plan, while maintaining flexibility to adapt.

• Executive Presence: Confident in leading discovery and value conversations with Director- and VP-level prospects.

• Consultative Sales Approach: Strong discovery, deep curiosity, and the ability to uncover root problems and connect them to outcomes.

• Self-Directed and Accountable: You don’t wait for leads—you create them, track them, and close them.

Nice to Have

• Franchise Model Fluency: Understanding of how QSR franchises operate (franchisor/franchisee dynamics) and how to align Solink’s value accordingly.

• Loss Prevention or Ops Tech Experience: Familiarity with common operational challenges in QSR (e.g., employee turnover, compliance, theft, speed of service).

• Multi-Threaded Selling: Experience managing and closing deals that involve IT, Operations, Finance, and Security teams.

• Competitor Awareness: Knowledge of the video surveillance, LP, or operations tech landscape in the QSR space.

Security Requirements

• Candidates must undergo a criminal records check upon hire;

• Be a Canadian Citizen, or eligible to work in Canada;

• Be willing to comply with Solink’s own security policies and standards.
