About us JADX is a boutique senior marketing agency in Montréal. We handle a business's entire marketing rather than splitting it across five different vendors. Brand strategy, packaging, website, content, email and paid media, all run by one team working from one design system, in French and English natively.

Our clients are founder-led businesses. Restaurant, bar and entertainment groups here in Québec, and consumer brands across Canada and the US. We deliberately keep a short client roster, which means every current client changes the shape of the year, and the person who brings them in matters as much as the people who do the work.

The role This is our first dedicated sales hire, and you would own the top of the funnel.

Your job is to find businesses worth talking to, get in front of the owner or the operator, and book them onto a free Marketing X-Ray. The X-Ray is our diagnostic: we look at how a business's marketing is actually performing under the hood and show them what we find. Jad, our president, runs that conversation and handles everything after it. You fill his calendar with the right people.

A good part of this happens in person. You will be driving around the city, walking into restaurants, bars and venues, and talking to owners and managers face to face. Montréal's hospitality scene rewards someone who shows up. If the idea of walking into a room without an introduction puts you off, this is not the right job, and that is worth knowing before you apply rather than after.

What you will actually be doing

- Building and maintaining a target list of businesses that fit who we work with
- In-person prospecting across Montréal and the surrounding regions, several days a week
- Calls, email and LinkedIn outreach to complement the field work
- Qualifying prospects against our fit criteria, and being honest when something is not a fit
- Booking Marketing X-Rays and exploration calls,



and handing them over with notes good enough that Jad walks into the call already informed
- Following up. Most of this job is follow-up, and most people are bad at it
- Keeping the pipeline current and truthful, so we can forecast from it
- Supporting the team on events, client visits and the general work of a small company

Who we are looking for You are fully bilingual in French and English, spoken and written, at a professional level in both. You will pitch in French in Montréal and in English with clients elsewhere in Canada and in the US, often in the same week.

You are comfortable starting a conversation with a stranger. Not fearless, just willing, and able to recover when it goes badly.

You have a valid driver's licence and access to a vehicle. This role moves around.

You are organized enough to run your own pipeline without being chased for updates.

You are curious about how businesses actually work. The best prospecting conversations here start with a genuine question about someone's business, not a pitch.

Formal sales experience is useful, and we will take drive and coachability over a polished CV. If you have sold into hospitality, retail or consumer brands before, say so.

What this job is not It is not a desk job. It is not a closing role, at least not at the start, and we will be clear with you about what earning your way into closing would look like. There is no inherited pipeline waiting for you, because we have not had this seat before. You would be building it, with support and with a founder who has done this work himself for close to a decade.

Compensation Base salary plus commission on business you bring in. We will walk you through the full structure at the first interview, including how commission is calculated and when it pays out.

You would work directly with the president, in a company small enough that your results are visible and your ideas actually change what we do.
