Work In Tech

The workplace is being disrupted and we’re leading the change toward a flexible future. Are you interested in being a part of this evolution and passionate about shaping the future of work?

Optix is a technology platform that enables coworking and flex space leaders across 20+ countries to succeed. We are reimaging coworking management software and enabling our clients to automate their operations, engage their communities, optimize their performance, and more.

We’re a passionate group of people who support each other to do our best work. We enjoy pour-over coffee, chocolate croissants, and jamming on our vision of changing the way the world works. And now we’re looking for an entrepreneurial-minded individual to join our rapidly growing team.

As an Account Executive, you will be responsible for building and maintaining relationships with clients, identifying new business opportunities, and driving revenue growth. With a deep understanding of our product, you will conduct sales demos and manage the sales cycle from initial contact to closing the deal. You will also stay up-to-date with industry trends in coworking and continuously seek to improve your sales skills and knowledge. This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious and driven individual with a passion for sales and a track record of success in B2B SaaS.

Note: This is a hybrid opportunity for someone based in Vancouver, BC (50% in our beautiful water-front Gastown office, 50% from home).

We welcome applicants from all walks of life. Even if you don’t feel you meet every requirement listed, we would still love to hear why you think you would be an awesome addition to our team, and we encourage you to apply.
