Job description

Overview

Fitch Learning, a Fitch Solutions Company, is a leader in financial services training. Working at Fitch Learning provides the opportunity to be part of a global leader in financial education, committed to delivering cutting-edge training solutions.

Fitch Learning is currently seeking an Inside Sales Manager for our CQF (Certificate in Quantitative Finance) program. This role is an individual contributor role based out of our Toronto office.

About the Team

The CQF (Certificate in Quantitative Finance) is the world’s largest quant finance qualification. As a CQF Inside Sales Manager (or “CQF Learning Manager” to our clients), you will be responsible for selling the CQF program to warm leads generated by the marketing team, and for independently generating business opportunities.

Responsibilities

• Manage and grow your sales pipeline, primarily through phone sales, email, and LinkedIn messaging to marketing-generated leads.
• Sell complex solutions to a range of financial services professionals and aspiring professionals, including pitching to senior-level finance executives.
• Drive attendance at CQF online information sessions and leverage these sessions to generate sales.
• Build strong, value-added relationships with CQF alumni to generate referrals.
• Participate in and follow up with attendees from conferences and talks (both online and in London) organized by the CQF.
• Work collaboratively with the Marketing, Operations, and CQF Institute teams.
• Attend industry events and conferences as required.
• Track sales activity in key CRM systems.

Qualifications

• You have proven B2C experience in training or delegate sales.
• You are able to sell in a high-volume, metrics-driven environment.
• You possess excellent lead management skills.

What Would Make You Stand Out

• Proven experience selling technical “off-the-shelf” qualifications or training to individuals or corporate clients, preferable in the financial services industry.
• Proficiency in phone sales and videoconferencing (e.g., Zoom or similar platforms).
• Excellent presentation, conversational, and writing skills.

Why Choose Fitch

• Hybrid Work Environment: 3 days a week in office required based on your line of business and location
• A Culture of Learning & Mobility: Dedicated trainings, leadership development and mentorship programs designed to ensure that your time at Fitch will be a continuous learning opportunity
• Investing in Your Future: Retirement planning and tuition reimbursement programs that empower you to achieve your short and long-term goals
• Promoting Health & Wellbeing: Comprehensive healthcare offerings that enable physical, mental, financial, social, and occupational wellbeing
• Supportive Parenting Policies: Family-friendly policies, including a generous global parental leave plan, designed to help you balance career and family life effectively
• Inclusive Work Environment: A collaborative workplace where all voices are valued, with Employee Resource Groups that unite and empower our colleagues around the globe
• Dedication to Giving Back: Paid volunteer days, matched funding for donations and ample opportunities to volunteer in your community
