About Turva

Turva Technologies is a Calgary software company building the operating system for licensed retail, starting with cannabis and liquor stores. One platform runs the till, the online store and delivery, with AI that helps owners with ordering, pricing and daily reporting. Built by retailers, for retailers, it already runs live Alberta cannabis stores every day.

We are hiring our first Account Executive to bring Turva to independent retailers across Alberta.

What you'll do

- Build and manage a pipeline of independent cannabis and liquor retailers across Alberta, in person, by phone and through your network
- Run discovery conversations and product demonstrations with store owners
- Close new accounts and guide each store to go-live, with our team handling the technical setup
- Bring customer feedback to the product team so the platform keeps improving
- Keep your pipeline current in our CRM

Your first 90 days

- Learn the platform inside a live store
- Build your target list and hold 30 conversations with store owners
- Run your first 10 demos and sign your first stores

What we offer

- A proven product already running in live stores, not a slide deck
- Setup and technical support from our team, so you can focus on selling
- AI-assisted prospecting: target lists, account research and follow-up drafts
- Direct access to the founder and fast decisions
- The chance to shape how we sell, and to grow into sales leadership as the team grows

What you need

- A valid driver's licence and a reliable vehicle; the role is based in Calgary with regular travel to stores
- Must be 18 or older, as the role involves visiting licensed cannabis and liquor stores
- Strong communication skills and comfort learning recent technology quickly

Preferred, not required

- Experience selling face to face to small business owners, whether software, cannabis or liquor products, or other retail
- Knowledge of Alberta cannabis or liquor retail,



from a supplier, a store or a POS company
- Relationships with store owners or buyers who will take your call

Compensation

- Base salary: $65,000–$80,000 per year, depending on experience
- Ramp support: an additional $1,500 per month for your first three months
- New-account bonus: one month of each new store's fee once it has paid for three months (every location counts), doubling after your 15th store in a year
- Recurring commission: 10% of each of your accounts' monthly fees for 24 months, then 5% for as long as the account stays and you remain with Turva. Uncapped.
- Milestone bonuses: $5,000 when Turva reaches 10 paying customer stores and $10,000 at 30
- Illustrative earnings at a $70,000 salary: about $90,000–$100,000 in year one with 20 new stores, or about $105,000–$125,000 with 30, depending on the plans your stores choose. Year two pays more as your recurring commission builds.

Schedule and start

- Monday to Friday, with some flexibility to meet store owners when it suits them
- Start in December 2026 or January 2027
