About Aspire Software
Aspire Software is an operating group of Valsoft Corporation, a Montreal-based company that buys and builds vertical market software businesses. Aspire owns and runs a portfolio of specialist software companies across several industries. Each business keeps its own brand, leadership and market focus, and Aspire supports it with capital, operational know-how and shared best practices. Aspire runs a decentralised management model and has no set exit timeline, so it backs its businesses for long-term, sustainable growth rather than a short-term sale.

Role purpose
Own and scale H&L’s net-new venue acquisition motion. Lead the BDR’s prospecting activity, convert qualified opportunities into new recurring revenue, and act as the product expert supporting structured expansion into existing medium and large customer accounts.
Key accountabilities
- Net-new acquisition: Own new-logo prospecting, discovery, demonstrations, proposals, negotiations and close; develop a measurable sales pipeline and predictable conversion cadence.
- BDR leadership: Set priorities for the BDR, coach prospecting and qualification standards, review activity and pipeline weekly, and ensure effective handover of qualified meetings.
