THE OPPORTUNITY
Join Motion Meetings as a founding sales team member and help us build our revenue engine from scratch. You’ll be a true hunter, generating pipeline in a zero-brand-recognition environment and closing deals with labor unions and democratic organizations.
This is a 100% hands-on revenue generation role where you own the full sales cycle from prospecting through closing. You’ll work directly with the CEO, shape our go-to-market strategy based on what you learn in the field, and have early equity ownership as we scale from $75K to multi-million dollar ARR.

• Attend conferences and industry events to identify and engage prospects

• Zero-brand-recognition experience: Success in startup, new product launch, or greenfield territory environments
• Hubspot or similar CRM proficiency: Pipeline management and accurate forecasting
• Complex sales capability: Comfortable navigating multi-stakeholder, committee-based decision processes
Bonus points: Experience selling to unions, associations, or member-based organizations | Familiarity with consensus-driven purchasing | Startup sales experience
WHO THRIVES IN THIS ROLE
You’re energized by the hunt. You don’t wait for leads to come to you - you go find them. You’re comfortable picking up the phone, sending cold emails, and striking up conversations at conferences. Rejection doesn’t faze you; it motivates you to refine your approach and try again.
You thrive in early-stage environments where there’s no playbook yet. You’re resourceful, self-directed, and don’t need hand-holding. You see ambiguity as opportunity, not chaos. You want to build something from scratch and see the direct impact of your work.
Most importantly: you want meaningful ownership. You want equity in a growing company, the chance to shape strategy, and the opportunity to grow into senior sales roles as Motion scales.
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
Base Salary: $50,000-$60,000 CAD
Commission: 10% of all ARR you close, guaranteed for 3 years (most companies only guarantee year 1)

Benefits: Remote/flexible work | Early-team member status

• Close $50K+ in new ARR
• Build pipeline of 50-60 active opportunities
