- Apple product knowledge, managed services sales experience and education sector experience are assets.
Compensation and benefits
- Base salary: $65,000–$75,000 CAD annually, depending on experience.
- First-year on-target earnings: $100,000–$115,000 CAD, including base salary and commissions, based on achieving agreed sales targets. Commissions are uncapped.
