Job description

Bilingual Business Development Manager– Northern BI

Location: Ontario, Canada (Remote)

Reports to: Head of Sales

Compensation: Base Salary, Uncapped Commission and Shared Success Bonus

Position Overview

• This is a hunting role. Reporting to the Head of Sales, the Business Development Manager owns net-new revenue for Northern Business Intelligence, finding, opening and closing accounts that have never bought from us before.
• You will build your own pipeline. Most of your opportunities will come from your own prospecting: cold calls, cold emails, LinkedIn, referrals, trade shows and industry associations. Marketing supports the effort, but no one is going to hand you a full funnel, and this role is not about servicing an existing book of business.
• If you measure your week by meetings booked and deals advanced and you'd rather chase a hard account than manage a comfortable one you'll do well here. We sell leading-edge telematics and fleet software into a market where the buyer often doesn't know they have a problem yet, so the win goes to the person who gets there first.

What You'll Do

• Generate the majority of your own pipeline through consistent, high-volume outbound prospecting cold calling, email, social selling and networking.
• Hunt net-new logos: identify, research and break into target accounts across your assigned region.
• Get to the decision maker, create urgency and drive the deal, rather than waiting for a buying cycle to come to you.
• Run the full sales cycle end to end first call through signature including discovery, product demonstrations, business case, negotiation and close.
• Deliver compelling demonstrations that connect our fleet solutions to the prospect's cost, safety and compliance problems.
• Build and work a territory plan: prioritize accounts, map the market and keep a pipeline several times the size of your quota.
• Maintain accurate activity, pipeline and forecast data in salesforce.com and forecast honestly.
• Meet or exceed quota and the activity metrics that lead to it.
• Develop relationships with prospects, customers and channel partners that turn into referrals and repeat business.
• Work with other Company divisions to uncover and pursue additional opportunities.
• Partner with internal teams to make the sale-to-driver handoff seamless.
• Travel to prospects, trade shows and industry events as required.

What You Bring

• 5 years in a quota-carrying, new-business sales role consultative or solution selling.
• A documented track record of hitting and beating quota, with specifics: numbers, percentages, rankings.
• Proven success opening cold accounts. You are comfortable picking up the phone and you don't need to be told to prospect.
• Resilience and self-direction you keep dialing after a bad week and you manage your own calendar and activity without supervision.
• Competitive drive and a sense of urgency; you want to be measured on results.
• Strong discovery and questioning skills you find the pain, quantify it and build the business case.
• Clear, mature written and verbal communication, and the presence to hold a room of senior decision makers.
• Strong analytical, interpersonal and organizational skills.
• Disciplined CRM habits; strong skills in salesforce.com, Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
• Flexible and adaptable, effective both independently and as part of a team.
• Ability to work with technical and non-technical audiences at every level of an organization.
• Telematics or fleet industry experience is an asset.
• Bilingualism is an asset, not a requirement.

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation package - base salary plus commission
• 3 weeks paid vacation to start
• Paid personal day
• Above industry standard paid holidays
• Employee Assistance Program
• Group RRSP matching
• Company provided technology (laptop, cell phone, etc.)
• Group Health, Dental, Vision and Online Doctors benefits
• Company events
• A cohesive and supportive team environment
• A company that invests in culture, team member needs and resources
