Travel Expectations
While this is a fully remote role, travel is a consistent part of the job. There are two primary types of travel you can expect:
Team Weeks: Once per quarter, the sales team or entire company gets together in person. These typically involve traveling out on a Monday and returning on a Thursday or Friday. Two of these each year are held at our headquarters in St. John's, Newfoundland, and the others take place in more central locations that evolve as the team grows.
On-sites: This role will work closely with a local customer with expectations to be on site with that customer, so there will likely be far less travel than our typical MFDE roll. That being said, in the event the local customer were to no longer work with us, the following is our standard MFDE travel expectations: “For most of our large deployment customers, we will visit on-site during kick-off and key expansion opportunities. Most on-sites involve 2-3 days with the customer, with travel on either side. Travel is primarily within North America, and you can expect 4 customer on-sites per quarter.”
This is a full-time, permanent position with a competitive compensation package that includes stock options.
