You’ll work closely with Partner Managers, Account Executives, and referring partner representatives in the restaurant tech space. Your focus will be on proactive outreach, strategic pipeline management, and relationship-building to drive mutual success. This role offers an exciting opportunity to connect with restaurateurs and partner vendors, highlighting the full value of 7shifts’ platform as the first point of contact in their journey toward streamlined scheduling, payroll, and operations.

- Understand and articulate 7shifts’ value proposition and sales pitch to effectively attract qualified buyers
- Identify opportunities to improve and automate our sales processes to scale up the team
- Ensure that you are staying up to date with the competitive market, especially in the restaurant industry
What you bring:
- 1 year of cold calling or outbound sales experience, with a proven ability to engage and convert prospects
- Experience using a CRM (Salesforce, Hubspot, Pipedrive, etc) or a communication platform (Outreach)
- Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to successfully engage prospects
- Proven track record of success, whether through sales achievements, competitive performance, or goal-driven results
- Excellent time management and organizational skills, with the ability to prioritize tasks effectively
- Comfort working in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
It’d be even cooler if you had:

Our commitment to our Shifties:
- Opportunity: Our product is evolving in exciting ways, and we’re focused on delivering even more value to restaurants. This momentum creates real opportunities to learn and grow. Whether you’re honing your craft or exploring new paths, you’ll be supported and empowered to own your growth and impact a product shaping the future of the restaurant industry.
- Challenge: We’re tackling real problems in a fast-moving, complex industry. The work is scrappy and ambiguous, but meaningful. You’ll think critically, act with intention, and shape solutions that make a real difference for restaurant teams.
- Culture: We’re proud to be recognized among the best workplaces in North America. Guided by our mission and values, we move fast to solve meaningful problems and celebrate wins together. Whether through in-office and remote events, team offsites like Sparks, or everyday moments of connection, we create space for shared growth, collaboration, and fun.
- Equity: We’re a Series C, VC-backed SaaS company, and we believe everyone should share in the success they help create. When we build together, we grow together.
- Health and Wellness: We support Shifties in and outside of work, knowing that what people need can change over time. From day one, you’ll have access to benefits like health and dental, lifestyle spending accounts to a parental leave program built with flexibility in mind, to help you bring your best self to work.
- Flexibility: Our team is intentional around how and where we work, whether remotely, in person, or a mix of both. We prioritize candidates who thrive in a hybrid work environment with offices in Saskatoon and Toronto, ensuring in-person collaboration and connection when possible. Plus, we offer a flexible vacation policy to encourage everyone to recharge when needed. Oh, and our ‘90 Day Shift’ program lets Shift work from (almost) anywhere because who wouldn’t want to trade their desk for a beach view once in a while?
- Support: We set Shifties up for success with the tools they need, like the latest Apple tech, a home office setup, and some 7shifts swag to make it official. But support goes beyond day one. We’re serious about professional growth, offering coaching, feedback, development planning, and opportunities to grow from within.
We know you might not check every box, and that’s okay. If you’re excited about this role, inspired to contribute to a meaningful product, and eager to share ideas that drive real change, we’d love to hear from you. We’re building an inclusive team that reflects the diverse industry we serve, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
We thank you for your interest in joining the 7shifts team!
