About Vitacore :

At Vitacore, we integrate cutting-edge research and technology with a profound commitment to sustainability and innovation. Established in 2020, Vitacore is driven by our mission to develop transformative products and services that address critical global issues, ensuring ethical practices and effective outcomes for the betterment of humankind and the planet. Our journey began with a focus on the healthcare sector, where we became leaders in manufacturing recycling single-use protective equipment. Today, we apply our expertise and innovative spirit to broader challenges, developing advanced technologies, sustainable practices, and innovative manufacturing processes that redefine what is possible across various industries.

About the Role :

Vitacore is seeking an Innovation Development Manger to help commercialize ideas before they become products. This role is distinct from traditional business development. Rather than selling existing products or services, this individual will be responsible for selling Vitacore’s vision, concepts, early-stage technologies, and innovation roadmap to external stakeholders. The focus is on building credibility, securing funding, generating strategic interest, and positioning Vitacore as a leading innovator in Canada and beyond.

You will engage directly with venture capital firms, strategic investors, grant agencies, accelerators, innovation hubs, government bodies, and potential strategic partners. Success in this role means opening doors, creating momentum, securing non-dilutive and dilutive funding, and helping early concepts progress toward commercialization.

This is a highly entrepreneurial role suited to someone comfortable operating in ambiguity, translating complex ideas into compelling narratives, and building trust before tangible products exist.

Responsibilities include :

Innovation & Opportunity Development :

• Identify, develop, and pursue funding and commercialization opportunities for early-stage concepts, R&D initiatives, and pre-product innovations.
• Work closely with internal R&D, leadership, and technical teams to deeply understand Vitacore’s innovation pipeline, scientific capabilities, and long-term vision.
