Role
Who you are
- You’re a trusted advisor who can build strong relationships with customers and colleagues. You have a history of success in sales positions, and you can tell us about it
- You have business acumen: you’re somebody comfortable discussing all but the most technical facets of our products, and you’re the “go-to” for our customers
- You have intellectual curiosity, a willingness to try out new sales techniques, and a personal commitment to continuous learning and improvement
- You’re a team player with empathy for colleagues and customers. You’re driven by competition but never at the expense of your team. You seek out opportunities to collaborate cross functionally and build relationships
- You're adaptable. You understand that growth stage companies are constantly evolving, and you need to be flexible in your approach and expectations. You are open-minded and positive, seeing the opportunity and excitement in periods of growth and change
- You’re accountable. You do what you say you’re going to do, and are comfortable rolling up your sleeves to get deep into the numbers, track down the data, and deliver on short timelines with the resources of a startup company
- You’re customer-obsessed. You deeply understand and care about our product’s value, who loves it, and why Blue J is the best and only option
- You're excited about what we’re doing! You want to be an early contributor to one of Canada’s rapidly growing companies and are genuinely invested in sharing in our success!
What the job involves
- Conducting in-depth discovery calls and completing the Discovery Checklist on each call
- Effectively qualifying opportunities
- Managing the sales pipeline, moving prospects through lead, discovery and up to demonstration stages
- Maintaining LinkedIn presence, promoting marketing material and connecting with industry members
- Meeting or exceeding monthly KPI goals created by your leadership team which will include call activity, meeting and demonstrations scheduled, and new pipeline created
- Attending trade shows and conventions as needed (virtually or in person, depending on COVID restrictions and safety)
Our take
Blue J Legal’s AI powered platform was created by a team of law professors and data scientists with the aim of helping fellow legal professionals gain a better understanding of individual cases, more quickly than if they researched an entire case themselves.
Having initially focused solely on legal cases, Blue J also now applies its predictive AI software to tax law – a tool which has become popular amongst tax attorneys and accountants, not just for its speed but for its junior-training applications.
While there’s been huge growth in the use of AI in the legal industry, its outcomes have not been without flaw. Blue J claims 90% accuracy for its predictive software; however, there have been some cases documented across the whole industry where AI was biased against minority demographics.
The key thing for Blue J Legal moving forward is the accuracy of its software. If the company can maintain the very highest standards and maintain its AI’s integrity, it could become not just financially successful, but socially impactful.
