Business Development Representative, Mid Market at 7shifts · Toronto

7shifts is a scheduling and payroll platform designed to help restaurant teams thrive. With an easy-to-use app and industry-specific solutions, 7shifts saves time, reduces errors, and helps keep costs in check for over 55,000 restaurants. Our mission is to simplify team management and improve performance for restaurants, with a long-term vision of creating a thriving restaurant industry through the power of connected & engaged teams. As a Business Development Representative, Mid-Market at 7shifts, you'll drive new business for our largest and highest-value customers: restaurant groups with 10+ locations. Reporting to the Senior Manager, Sales Development SMB & Mid-Market, you'll generate and qualify pipeline for the Mid-Market Account Executive team by reaching the operators and executives who run multi-unit and enterprise brands. This is a 0-1 build, so you won't inherit a finished script: you'll figure out what works, build a repeatable process as you go, and help scale the motion across the mid-market and enterprise segment.

What you’ll do:

• Generate the pipeline that fuels mid-market growth, targeting restaurant groups with 10+ locations and booking qualified meetings for the Mid-Market Account Executive team
• Get in the door however it takes, prospecting across calls, email, social, networking, and events, and working your network to stand out in a crowded inbox
• Own a focused book of accounts in Salesforce, researching restaurant groups and multi-threading to the operators and decision-makers who actually sign
• Work smarter with AI, leaning on prospecting tools and internal data to surface high-potential accounts, personalize outreach at scale, and spend your day where it counts
• Hit and exceed your targets, staying disciplined on the daily and weekly activity you control and consistently booking meetings that convert to opportunities
• Shape the motion and the playbook, spotting what's working, flagging what isn't, and building the repeatable process as the segment scales

What you bring:

• Quota-carrying outbound sales experience, ideally in B2B SaaS, with a track record of generating net-new pipeline
• Restaurant industry background: you understand how operators and multi-unit leaders think, and you can speak their language
• Scrappiness and hustle: you work your network to get meetings and get creative to stand out in a crowded inbox
• Exceptional verbal and written communication, with empathic listening
• Strong self-organization: you prioritize a portfolio and build your own structure when there isn't a playbook yet
• A track record of achievement or competitive success, and a team-first attitude

It’d be even cooler if you had:

• Experience in restaurant tech (POS, payroll, online ordering, reservations, or tip management) or a working knowledge of restaurant operations, tip pooling, and labor compliance
• Experience with a sales-engagement or sequencing tool (Outreach, Salesloft, or similar)

We’re serious about professional growth, offering coaching, feedback, development planning, and opportunities to grow from within.
