About The Position

Liferaft builds software that helps organizations find, understand, and act on potential risks from publicly available information. Our clients include corporate security teams around the world, including some of the world’s leading organizations. We’re a remote-first company committed to building a high-performing, values-driven team that operates with clarity, discipline, accountability, and care. Liferaft was recently acquired by global security company Securitas, expanding our ability to deliver intelligence-led security at scale. Together, our technology and security solutions help these organizations protect their people, assets, and operations, making a meaningful impact in the world we live in. Liferaft is looking for an experienced Sales Manager to lead and develop our Account Executive team as we continue to scale our enterprise sales organization. This role is open to candidates based in Canada within the Eastern or Atlantic time zones, with a strong preference for Halifax-based applicants given the concentration of the current sales team and the value of in-person leadership.
