This is a high-impact individual contributor role suited to a commercially driven professional who thrives on prospecting, relationship-building, and closing — with the ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles from first contact to signed contract. You’ll be joining a team that’s understanding toward life and work balance, and success depends on strong self-direction and disciplined communication, both internally with the team and externally with clients and partners.

Office: Fredericton, Canada.

This vacancy is a full-time position.

New Business Development

- Identify, research, and qualify new-name business leads across target verticals and geographies.

M&A; Outreach & Pipeline

- Initiate and maintain proactive outreach to identify M&A; targets in alignment with company acquisition criteria.
- Build and manage a long-term M&A; prospect pipeline by engaging with software company owners and senior executives.
- Maintain meaningful, ongoing dialogue with M&A; prospects, nurturing relationships over extended timelines.
- Represent the company at trade shows, industry events, and conferences to expand the prospect network.
- Collaborate with internal teams (Product, Technical Support, Development and Customer Success, and Sales)



to support seamless onboarding of newly or already landed clients.
- Document all meetings, interactions, and follow-up actions in the CRM and related systems promptly and accurately.
- Build trust-based relationships with decision-makers at all levels within the organizations and reseller network.

- Work closely with the Sales & Marketing team to align outreach efforts with broader commercial strategy.
- Provide regular pipeline and forecast updates to the line manager, flagging risks and opportunities.
- Share market intelligence and prospect feedback with relevant internal stakeholders.

Communication & Transparency Standards

Clear and proactive communication is a core job requirement, not a soft preference.
- Management visibility at every stage: line manager and internal stakeholders should always have a current, accurate picture of where each opportunity stands — no deal, prospect, or M&A; relationship should be a surprise in a forecast review.
- Proactive, not reactive, updates: flag risks, delays, or changes in a deal’s status as they emerge, rather than waiting to be asked.
- Full transparency with customers and leads: every commitment, timeline, and next step communicated to a prospect or client must be explicit,



accurate, and consistently documented — nothing verbal-only or left ambiguous.
- CRM as the single source of truth: all meetings, interactions, and follow-ups logged promptly so that pipeline and forecast data remain reliable without needing to chase the rep for status.
