BIS Safety Software is a SaaS company on a mission to change how organizations manage safety learning and compliance. The product is proven and the customer base is strong; what comes next depends on a sales function built to scale. Were hiring our first VP of Sales to build it: someone who can lead the team we have today create the roles and systems that dont exist yet and shape a small capable team into one that wins consistently.
About the role:
This role takes ownership of the BIS sales function. Youll lead and develop a capable team of account executives design and build the SDR and inside sales roles around them and put the process training and pipeline discipline in place to turn a small team into a repeatable revenue engine. The mandate is to build the system not to be it: the playbooks and structure that let a strong rep succeed rather than a team that lives or dies on rare exceptional individuals.
You can sell and youve done it successfully but the job here is to build a team that sells without you not to carry the number yourself. This is a build not a maintenance assignment and the ambition is significant: were looking for a leader who can grow new revenue meaningfully and prove a model the company can keep scaling. The leaders who thrive here speak precisely to a sales org theyve built before: how they built it in what order and the results that proved it worked.
Youll have real autonomy to set the strategy and the trust to act on it earned through sound judgment and movement on the indicators that matter.
This is an in-person role based out of our Sherwood Park Alberta office.
In this role youll be expected to:
- Own revenue attainment against the annual target
- Lead coach and develop the existing and future account executive team
- Build out SDRs and inside sales functions
- Put real sales process pipeline management and forecasting discipline in place
- Build the playbooks onboarding and training that make a solid rep win not only the top performers
- Own comp plan design and territory strategy
- Keep the CEO informed on pipeline health forecast and team performance
You might be the right fit if you:
- Built a sales team from scratch not just inherited or managed one that already existed
- Operated at the $10M to $50M stage where execution wins instead of big-company budgets
- Sold complex multi-stakeholder deals yourself so you build from real selling experience not theory
- Build the system not the quarter: the playbooks training and comp design that make average reps win
- Run on pipeline math and speak to coverage ratios ramp and quota attainment without hedging
- Coach first and direct second holding the team accountable while keeping their trust
- Own a miss without blame reading what the leading indicators were telling you and adjusting from there
Bonus points if you have:
- SaaS experience (strongly preferred though the right operating experience matters more)
- Built or scaled an SDR or inside sales function before
- Worked in a modern CRM ideally HubSpot or Salesforce
Compensation and benefits:
- Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
- Full medical dental and vision coverage
- Life insurance and disability insurance
- Health spending account
- Flexible working hours
- On-the-job training and growth opportunities
- Free on-site parking
