Senior Sales Manager, Working Capital (Toronto)
Location: Toronto, ON (on-site)
About the Role and Team Structure You will lead and scale the Toronto Working Capital sales team, which today has five people. You are first and foremost accountable for people and performance. You step in as the team's leader, learn what each person does well, raise the standard, and grow the team to match Montreal's size and output. You manage to the data, build and run world-class onboarding, training and coaching, and partner across the organization to make the whole process run better. You are a great communicator who brings professionalism to the team and builds a culture where high performance and having fun go hand in hand.
Toronto and Montreal are separate teams, each with its own leader, run as one sales organization. You and the Montreal Sales Leader share the same standards, back each other up, and share responsibility for scaling the business.
Partnership with Montreal
Share in scaling the business and in combined performance
Share best practices, wins and lessons in both directions, and bring the two teams together as one organization
Co-develop and share structured, documented coaching, training and onboarding practices so every rep gets the same experience in both cities
Work with the Montreal Sales Leader as co-owners of one sales organization and as each other’s backup, covering leadership, training and onboarding at either office when needed
People Leadership and Performance Management You are the single accountable leader for every person on the Toronto team.
People leadership
Lead, develop and scale a high-performing Toronto sales team
Get to know each current team member quickly: their strengths, gaps,
goals and what motivates them
Assess the team in your first 60–90 days, then set a clear plan for each person against the shared standards
Keep a constant pulse on the sales floor, with a real-time presence that keeps the team focused on revenue-generating activity and ensures issues are heard and addressed as they arise
Work with each team member daily toward their goals and the goals of the business
Set the standard for showing up on time, fully engaged and giving full effort
Be the escalation point for performance and personnel challenges in Toronto
Performance management
Own the daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly performance of the Toronto team, and work directly with anyone who is behind to get them to target
Set clear expectations and standards for every role, communicate them in writing, and enforce accountability consistently
Define each role in writing: what it is, what success and failure look like, and the pathway for growth, so each person knows exactly how they are measured
Put structured performance improvement plans in place for underperformers: repeatable, tracked, clearly communicated and focused on results
Run quarterly performance reviews covering where each person is, where they want to be, and a clear plan to close the gap
Make timely decisions when someone is not the right fit
Hiring and Scaling the Team
Own hiring for Toronto sales roles end to end: sourcing, interviewing and making the final decision
Grow Toronto from its current five to match the size and output of Montreal, with a defined plan, timeline and hiring order
Decide which roles to add first based on pipeline, lead volume and the gaps you find in the current team
Use role scorecards, defined interview stages and a standing candidate pipeline, aligned with Montreal's process
Keep Toronto properly staffed, monitor turnover and work to minimize it by retaining and developing strong performers
Be the primary contact for Toronto personnel issues and conflict resolution
Oversee scheduling and vacation planning for the Toronto team
Onboarding and Ramp You own onboarding for every current Toronto hire and are accountable for how fast they reach full productivity. You also bring the current team in line with the shared onboarding and training standards.
Build onboarding documentation and presentations for each role jointly with the Montreal Sales Leader: simple, well designed, scalable and repeatable
Include daily, weekly and monthly plans, system training (the CRM, Flinks and every other tool the teams use), sales training and all other required modules
Put targets and expectations inside the onboarding documents, with clear Week 1, Month 1 and Quarter 1 goals for each role, and ramp benchmarks (time to first deal, activity and conversion targets) so progress is visible and measurable
Run existing team members through any onboarding and training modules they haven't yet had, so everyone in both offices work
