What This Role Is

We are looking for someone who loves the chase of developing new customers and new business opportunities, a true Hunter salesperson. Our ideal candidate wakes up thinking about new prospects, untapped accounts, and deals that haven’t been won yet. If that’s you, you’re going to thrive here.

With Quadra’s ambitious U.S. growth plans, this region offers enormous potential. We’re seeking an entrepreneurial, self-driven professional who is motivated to build, grow, and win.
