Hi Guarav, Thank you for joining the chat today. Yes, we are open to candidates from Canada, including remote roles. We have about 15 employees that currently work from Canada. What type of role are you interested in?

Ok Great - I have been working predominantly in Account Manager/ Sales Manager positions so I would be keen on similar roles - My previous positions have been a mix of KAM as well and BD roles - Essentially managing the full sales cycle from Cold to Closure to Customer success

Furthermore, compared to the US market, the Canadian market may be smaller, however, what are the companies growth plans here and how do see the sales roles and overall business
evolve in this country

Hi Gaurav,
Linedata has clients in the Canadian market. Some of these are well known companies and long standing with us. We definitely see the market as having potential for additional growth.

I personally do not handle the clients in Canada, but my colleague who does has indicated to me that it is a much more personal market meaning networks are important to achieving new business.

Gaurav, we have deep relationships spanning banking and investment management, and have a strategic account that has joined us in launching an artificial intelligence solution, as an example

Thanks, Ethan and David, I see you are present in the BMO building on King Street which is a fantastic place to be. Given the overall nature of business in Canada, are you planning the expand the team here for now especially given the Canadian economy is on a reboot?
Canada is definitely are personal market and networks are crucial however what is your future strategy and what are potentially looking for when it's about hiring in Canada - I apologize that these questions are more centric to Canada given the original discussion was more tailored towards the US and UK market but it will be great to know the plans and also understand how the hiring process is as well.
