  • Evaluate and maximize utilization of all lead sources, setting actionable targets and monitoring performance against each source.
  • Conduct regular coaching sessions and monthly reviews with BDMs, assessing past activities and planning strategies for the upcoming month.
  • Review historical performance on a month-to-month and quarter-to-quarter basis to identify areas for enhancement and growth.
  • Assist BDMs in the preparation of compelling proposals and presentations as needed.
  • Ensure BDMs’ sales pipelines are realistic, accurate, and effectively managed.
  • Partner with the Head of Telemarketing and Management Team to maintain a balanced view of inside and outside sales performance through rigorous review of appointment levels and quality.
  • Support FSMs in developing team business plans, conducting workshops, and achieving team sales targets.
  • Hold BDMs accountable for their activity levels and performance standards.
  • Enhance sales capabilities and proficiency within individual BDMs through targeted development efforts.
  • Identify sales trends and themes from performance data and collaborate with the Head of Sales Training to design and deliver appropriate training workshops.
  • Provide regular and insightful reports and updates to key stakeholders.
  • Ensure BDMs meet or exceed all activity standards for prospecting calls, appointments, presentations, proposals, and closures.

What You Bring to the Team

  • Minimum of 5 years’ experience in a sales leadership or management role.
  • Proven track record of successfully managing, developing, and coaching field-based sales teams in a Business-to-Business (B2B) environment.
  • Strong analytical skills with the ability to generate detailed reports that identify sales trends, themes, and performance issues.
  • Confident communicator capable of conducting effective coaching sessions and providing constructive feedback to BDMs to drive performance improvement.
  • Results-oriented mindset with a proactive approach to setting clear goals, plans, and expectations, and holding teams accountable.
  • Exceptional interpersonal skills with the ability to gather and evaluate feedback from various stakeholders to enhance performance and drive personal accountability.
  • Flexible and willing to travel across the region and to the Eastern division of Canada as required in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial sales environment.
  • Why Join Our Team?

  • Salary : $120,000 base + Quarterly bonus with extra opportunity to earn more if stretch target is hit!
  • Peninsula is consistently recognized as one of the best companies to work for, as evidenced by the Glassdoor Awards.

  • Peninsula is committed to creating an inclusive, equitable, and accessible workplace where every employee is valued.
