Relay

Business Development Representative

Toronto, Canada
Our mission is to increase the success rate of small businesses. Traditional banking has been a growth limiter rather than a growth enabler for business owners, and we’re changing that. Relay is the all-in-one, collaborative money management platform. We’re building for employer SMBs and their finance function, internal and external, and are focused on delivering a human-centric customer experience. Ultimately, we help SMBs be ‘on the money'.

We are looking for a Business Development Representative to join our rapidly growing Sales team. You’ll be an integral part of Relay’s customer acquisition strategy; from prospecting inbound leads to outreach for outbound leads and so much more in between.

  • Comprehensive health benefits: we offer full health benefits + an HSA/WSA starting from day 1 so you get the coverage you need.
