• Consultative Setting: Overcoming common objections regarding market timing, confidentiality, and valuation.
• CRM Management: Maintaining an accurate pipeline of prospective sellers and ensuring seamless hand-offs to the Brokerage team.
• Strategic Prospecting: Working inbound leads (80%), but also outbound outreach to business owners within specific industries and revenue brackets.
• Conduct high-volume lead outreach through outbound calling and email campaigns to prospective business owners in the GTA and across Canada. (80% warm)
• Meet and exceed monthly targets for calls, qualified leads, and booked appointments.

Requirements

• 2+ years of experience in a similar, scheduler, or call centre role, preferably in a B2B environment, is a strong asset.
• Proven track record of meeting or exceeding activity quotas and sales deliverables is key.
• Strong English communication and active listening skills with the ability to articulate complex concepts over the phone clearly is a must.
• Proficiency with CRM software (e.g., Pipedrive) is an asset, but training will be provided.
• Business background preferred (e.g. sales, accounting, general business knowledge)
• Self-motivated and diligent - able to make repeated calls and treat leads as individual projects.
• Comfortable working fully in-office with set expectations/targets.
• Strong note-taking and organizational skills to relay context effectively.
• Competitive base salary for a similar role.
• Performance-based incentives based on booked appointments and successful deals.
• Opportunities for professional development and career advancement into a Broker role.
• A supportive, professional, and high-energy work environment in the Mississauga office.
