Responsibilities
As our first Account Executive (Restaurants Partnership), you will own the top and middle of the funnel: researching ideal restaurant partners, reaching out, running intro conversations, and supporting them through onboarding onto OffMenu.
You’ll combine personable, in‑person and remote relationship‑building with heavy use of AI tools to research, personalize outreach, and keep yourself highly productive.
This is an entry‑level role ideal for someone hungry, coachable, and excited about restaurants, tech, and AI.
Identify and prioritize target restaurants that match OffMenu’s ideal partner profile (strong regular base, hero dishes, operationally solid).
Use AI tools (chatbots, research assistants, email‑drafting tools, simple lead‑scoring sheets) to research prospects, prepare outreach, and log notes.
Run outbound outreach (email, Instagram/DMs, phone, in‑person drop‑bys, events) to book meetings with restaurant owners and operators.
Team
OffMenu is a new product from Cookin (a CookUnity company) that helps top local restaurants launch and grow their own subscription programs, turning their biggest fans into recurring members. We’re in an early pilot stage with a small group of Toronto restaurants and are now hiring our first sales hire to help us bring more great merchants onto the platform.
