Account Executive (New Business)

Build your sales career with the training, coaching, flexibility, and support to succeed.

About the Role

The Inside Account Executive is a pure new business development role focused on generating and closing net-new membership with organizations that are not yet McLean & Company clients. You will prospect into a defined territory, build relationships with HR leaders from the ground up, and open the door to new organizations that could benefit from our research, diagnostics, and advisory services.

You will connect HR executives with McLean & Company’s research, diagnostics, advisory services, and expert support for the first time. By understanding each prospect’s priorities and challenges, you will build a strong, consistent pipeline of new business and hand off newly won members for ongoing account management.

Why Join McLean & Company?

-

A robust onboarding and sales training program designed to give you the product knowledge, practical skills, tools, and confidence to succeed in the role.

-

Ongoing coaching and support from experienced sales leaders as you apply your learning, strengthen your capabilities, and build momentum.

Clear opportunities to develop your sales career, take on new challenges, and pursue future growth as the business continues to expand.

-

A collaborative culture where team members share knowledge, support one another, and celebrate individual and collective wins.

-

The broader resources and career opportunities that come with being part of McLean & Company, a division of Info-Tech Research Group.

A Remote Role That Keeps You Connected

This particular role can be performed remotely from within Canada. Remote does not mean working alone. You will be part of an engaged sales team with regular opportunities to collaborate, learn, share ideas, and connect with colleagues and leaders across the business.

For employees who enjoy an office environment or want occasional in-person connection, our London and Toronto offices are available as an optional place to work. You can benefit from the flexibility of remote work while still having access to the energy, relationships, and resources of an office when it works for you.
