Anyone can buy ads. We hand our clients an engaged, mobilized audience on day one: some of the largest issue-based online communities and data sets in Canada, built over years and ready to activate.
Our content reaches millions of North Americans every week. We've delivered 250+ projects, generated over 2 billion content views, and driven 275 million impressions in a single national campaign. We work with leading agencies, associations, law firms and organizations across North America on advocacy campaigns, litigation and crisis communications, and corporate public affairs.
Demand for what we do has never been higher. We're scaling to meet it.
The Role
We're hiring a dedicated Business Development Manager to grow the firm. You'll work directly with our founder to find opportunities, build relationships and close current business across our verticals: industry and trade associations, litigation communications, advocacy campaigns,
political clients and channel partnerships with GR and crisis firms.
This is a revenue role. Your compensation is built to reward what you bring in, and there's no ceiling on it.
What You'll Do
- Own the pipeline: find prospects, run outreach, book meetings and move opportunities from first contact to signed engagement
- Write winning proposals, campaign plans and pitch materials alongside our strategy and creative teams
- Represent Mobilize in the room: pitches, calls, lunches and industry events
- Build and maintain referral relationships across law firms, GR shops and associations
- Learn the full mechanics of the business, from how campaigns are scoped and priced to how they're delivered and measured
Who You Are
- Hungry. You want your compensation tied to your results
- Well-connected, or building a network fast, in Canadian politics, public affairs, law or business
- A sharp writer with a builder's mindset who can spot opportunities before they're obvious
- Confident with senior clients, lawyers, executives and political operators
- Genuinely curious about how a business runs, not just your slice of it
- Experience in sales, public affairs, government relations, campaigns, media or professional services is an asset
Compensation
- Base salary of $90,000 to $95,000 to start
- Performance bonus tied directly to the revenue you bring in, structured to scale as you grow the book
- The right person will meaningfully out-earn their base
