We're looking for a hands-on people leader ready to own both the customer experience and the sales outcome, coaching a team of Outbound Sales Specialists to turn every customer call into a sales opportunity
Who We Are

At the heart of that growth is TELUS Small Medium Business (SMB), one of the fastest-growing segments in the company. Our Inbound Sales team is often the very first voice a customer hears, and as Manager, Sales Operations, you'll lead the team that makes that first impression count.

This role is accountable for driving sales performance and quality customer interactions across an integrated portfolio of TELUS Business products, while ensuring every customer interaction reflects TELUS values.

Customer Sales Journey: Ensure reps consistently execute the end-to-end outbound sales journey - from campaign sales motion and discovery through solution presentation, objection handling, close and first bill review
Coaching-First Leadership: Lead regular 1:1s, call coaching, and real-time feedback to strengthen sales behaviours, improve conversion, and build rep capability
Data-Driven Action: Use Lead and Lag KPIs - including connect rates, conversion, pipeline progression, talk time, productivity, and attainment - to identify trends and turn insights into targeted action.
Talent Development: Identify and develop top talent, building a strong bench of sales leaders and reps while supporting career growth across TELUS SMB sales motions
Clear Communication: Translate TELUS product, campaign, and sales strategy into clear direction and consistent execution across your teams
Cross-Functional Partnership: Partner with Canadian Sales, Workforce Operations, Enablement, Quality, Analytics, and other teams to remove barriers, improve the customer journey, and maximize sales performance.
