Head Of Customer Support 🔥


Convictional recently raised a Series A and is looking for world-class professionals to join our distributed team in North America to help us enable exceptional customer experiences by championing effective and innovative support service delivery.

About us

We’re Convictional. Convictional is a Y-Combinator-backed company building an industry-leading infrastructure software for B2B trade. We exist to make B2B trade easier for our customers (retailers, marketplaces, and distributors) to digitally enable all of their suppliers. Our customers use Convictional to onboard, integrate, and manage their suppliers in order to make B2B trade easier.

Thousands of companies rely on Convictional to automate B2B trade, whether our customers are seeking to expand their online assortment with new SKUs, enable a marketplace business model to reduce inventory risk, or automate inventory replenishment, Convictional’s platform solves multiple pain points in transacting with suppliers. We call this category of enterprise software Supplier Enablement. Convictional is seeking an influential member of our early Go-To-Market team to cement our leadership within this emerging category.

Our team is ambitious, highly entrepreneurial, and biases towards action. We never back down from a spirited debate and believe we are all responsible for fully exploring the hard questions. We value self-awareness and meaningful impact. We are open to unconventional approaches, and have learned to not judge a book by its cover. We are inspired every day by the opportunity to pioneer a new industry, and welcome those who want to join us.

We believe flexibility is important, as time is your most valuable resource. We are a fully distributed team with people located across Canada and the US. We don’t care where or when you work. We use email, not messaging apps, we default to no internal meetings, and Deep Work Wednesdays. We expect you to go to coaching or therapy at least occasionally and adhere to 10% compound time.
