Role Summary

We're looking for an ambitious Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join Patsnap and help drive the next stage of our growth.

As an SDR, you'll be the first point of contact for prospective customers, introducing them to PatSnap's AI-powered Innovation Intelligence platform and helping some of the world's most innovative organizations accelerate R&D, protect intellectual property, and make smarter innovation decisions.

This is an exciting opportunity to launch your career in SaaS sales. You'll learn how to identify opportunities, build relationships with senior decision-makers, and generate pipeline while working alongside experienced Account Executives, sales leaders and marketers who are invested in your success.

At Patsnap, we believe attitude matters just as much as experience. If you're ambitious, curious and willing to put in the work, we'll provide the training, coaching and support to help you succeed. With structured onboarding, ongoing mentorship and a clear career path, you'll develop the skills and confidence to progress from Sales Development Representative to Account Executive and beyond, with uncapped earning potential as your career grows.

This is a hybrid role based in our Toronto office, with the flexibility to work either hybrid (Monday, Tuesday and Thursday in the office) or fully office-based if you prefer.
