Salary: $160,000 - $200,000 CAD + performance bonus + equity
Type: Full-Time
Auxo is hiring a VP, Sales & Marketing for a fast-growing Canadian deep tech scale-up that sells science-based technology and services to enterprise customers around the world.
You’ll be the company’s first commercial VP, reporting to the COO and taking over a revenue engine that already performs. A Head of Sales and a Head o f Marketing report to you, each running a lean team that is set to grow. You’ll own the pipeline, the forecast, positioning, demand generation, and the numbers the Board sees.
It’s science delivered as a service: every deal is scoped on the client’s real-world conditions, delivered by a scientific team, and carries a margin to protect. Your first mandate is to diagnose where performance is leaking, fix what better process can fix, and make a data-backed case for what needs current resources.
The company has strong traction and a seasoned founding team that knows the startup phase well. What it needs now is a leader who has already taken a commercial organization through the scale-up stage and wants to do it again, with real influence on growth strategy, pricing, and the product roadmap.
Own the revenue forecast and the commercial dashboard presented to the Board
Diagnose the commercial org (coverage, skills, tooling, process) and turn every gap into a costed action plan
Define the end-to-end sales process and make the CRM the single source of truth
Build the sales-to-delivery handoff with the science and operations teams, and protect margin on every project
Grow recurring and multi-year engagements across per-unit, package, and subscription models
Sharpen positioning by customer segment and translate complex science into clear business value
Prioritize international markets and design a coverage model that works across time zones
10+ years in B2B sales and/or marketing, including leading a commercial team through the scale-up phase , not the early startup phase
- Experience selling services or solutions, not just software : scoping, value pricing, and tight handoffs to technical delivery teams
- A track record in complex, long-cycle sales with scientific, technical, and executive buyers
- Comfortable owning commercial reporting to a Board and investors
- Technical enough to master the science behind the platform quickly; a background in science, engineering, or data science is a strong asset
- Professional fluency in English ; French is a robust asset, as the leadership team works in French
- Bonus: experience in climate tech, sustainability, agtech, food and beverage, or scientific consulting and engineering services
- Bonus: Spanish and/or Portuguese, and international expansion experience
