We are always looking for amazing talent who can contribute to our growth and deliver results! Geotab is seeking a Business Development Associate who will be responsible for driving new and expansion revenue within our small and medium-sized business (SMB) customer segment, helping fleets of sub- 100 vehicles discover how Geotab can transform their operations. This is an exciting early-career sales opportunity for someone who thrives in front of customers, delivers engaging product demonstrations, and is ready to grow their career with industry-leading coaching. If you love connecting with customers and showcasing technology, and are keen to join an industry leader — we would love to hear from you!
As a Business Development Associate your key area of responsibility will be achieving an individual Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) growth target by managing an assigned list of SMB leads, accounts, and opportunities. You will be responsible for prospecting and qualifying new opportunities, engaging inbound leads in your territory, running discovery conversations to understand each customer’s fleet challenges, and delivering clear, compelling presentations and live product demonstrations that connect customer needs to the right Geotab solutions. Customer demos are a central part of this role, so you will spend much of your time showing prospects how Geotab works in practice. You will also need to advance opportunities through partner and referral programs, keep opportunity stages, activities, and next steps accurate in Salesloft and Salesforce, and build your knowledge of telematics, fleet management, competitors, and market trends. You will need to work closely with Business Development leadership, Revenue Operations, Partner Account Managers, and Marketing to progress opportunities and share customer and market insights that shape planning and forecasting. Our ideal candidate is able to support customers in the Pacific or Mountain time zone.
To be successful in this role you will be a confident communicator and presenter who is coachable, resilient, curious, and motivated by measurable goals. In addition, the successful candidate will have strong organization and time management skills, the ability to learn technical and business concepts quickly, and the drive to build the product, industry, and sales expertise needed to progress into a Business Development Representative role.

Collaborate with Business Development leadership, Revenue Operations, Partner Account Managers, Marketing, and other cross-functional stakeholders to progress opportunities and follow established sales practices.

Develop awareness of competitors, market trends, and segment-specific sales narratives.
