Your career is an investment that grows over time!
Wealthsimple is on a mission to help everyone achieve financial freedom by reimagining what it means to manage your money. Using smart technology, we take financial services that are often confusing, opaque and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 3 million users who trust us with more than $40 billion in assets.
Our teams ship often and make an impact with groundbreaking ideas. We're looking for talented people who keep it simple and value collaboration and humility as we continue to create inclusive and high-performing teams where people can be inspired to do their best work.
We’re building the world’s most human financial company, using technology to scale the value we provide to our clients, and people to add value where only humans can. Business development at Wealthsimple is about serving our clients and helping a generation of Canadians reach their financial goals.
Although many financial services companies are focused on growth, we have seen industry leading results when the Commercial team has worked closely with Growth marketing. Specifically the Business Development team will drive $3.5B in net deposits in 2024 and plan to double to $7B in net deposit growth in 2025.
Today the financial services industry is an oligopoly dominated by five big banks. They charge high fees, and provide poor service to clients with less than $3M in net worth. Additionally over $2T in assets are in the Wealth Management sector and a large portion of these assets are investing with high fees and poor returns. We believe that it is time for something different for Canadians.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to:
- Follow-up with high-quality leads from the Growth Marketing team
- Build growth opportunities for the business through outreach emails, calls, and qualification
- Be the first touchpoint that articulates the Wealthsimple value proposition to potential prospects
- Work closely with Product and Marketing teams on “playtests” that require client interaction
- Work closely with Sales and Marketing on creative projects that help drive revenue growth
- Achieve monthly quotas and daily KPI’s of outbound touches across email, calls, text
- Nurture and educate prospective clients through the sales cycle until they are qualified
Skills and experience we’re looking for:
- Resourcefulness — you should have demonstrated track record of persevering in the face of adversity
- Adaptability — in a startup, priorities and direction can evolve quickly. You should have a positive can-do attitude and be adaptable to evolving business goals
- Goal-oriented — you should have experience (and be excited about!) working hard towards a goal
- Strong communication — you should be comfortable writing persuasively and communicating at all levels
- Self-starter — when you see a need, you address it
- Natural Curiosity - you should be eager to understand our client’s needs and uncover the root of their problem
- 1-3 years experience in a sales or client-facing role
- Resiliency - bounce back from rejection and objection and keep trying
- Bonus: Completed IFIC or CSC
