• Experience operating at scale with $500m+ revenue accountability.
• Knowledge and understanding of the Canadian market, SaaS business and commercial model including P&L management.
• Sales, commercial acumen, and experience of multiple sales motions (direct, inside sales, partners, digital) across multiple customer segments.

• Experience of different customer segments: Small and Medium Business (SMB), Enterprise, and Channel.
