Job Summary:
Reporting to the Director, Canadian Medical, the Manager, Medical Sales, Strategy & Marketing is a senior commercial leader accountable for growing Tilray Medical's patient base and revenue while running the commercial engine behind HelloMD, our national virtual medical cannabis clinic. This is a rare hybrid role: it owns sales strategy, marketing execution, and clinic commercial operations under a single mandate.
This is a builder's role, not a caretaker's. The successful candidate will translate a national strategy into quarterly operating plans, own a P&L-relevant set of KPIs (patient acquisition, retention, conversion, average order value, cost per acquisition, margin mix), and lead a small, geographically distributed team. You will work in one of Canada's most heavily regulated commercial environments, where every campaign, patient touchpoint and practitioner interaction must satisfy the Cannabis Act, Health Canada promotional restrictions, and privacy legislation (PIPEDA/PHIPA).
We are looking for someone who has done this before in medical cannabis — someone who understands how clinics actually run, how patients are acquired and retained, how veteran and insurer coverage works, and who can defend a recommendation with data rather than instinct.
Job Status: This posting is for an existing vacancy.
Travel: Approx. 25–40%, including conferences, clinic visits and partner meetings.
Role and Responsibilities:
Commercial Strategy & Planning
Build and own the annual commercial strategy for the medical business, translating corporate AOP and EBITDA targets into quarterly sales, marketing and clinic operating plans with clear owners, milestones and measures.
Develop the annual patient growth model: acquisition targets by channel, retention and renewal assumptions, revenue and margin build, and the investment required to deliver it.
Lead competitive and market intelligence across Canadian medical cannabis and convert findings into pricing, promotion and positioning recommendations.
Identify, evaluate and build the business case for new growth channels, including union and group benefit partnerships, long-term care and seniors' facilities, veteran and first-responder populations, insurer and payer relationships, and white-label clinic opportunities.
Prepare executive- and board-ready materials: performance reviews, growth recommendations, risk assessments and quarterly business reviews.
Sales Leadership & Partnerships
Own the national medical sales target; forecast monthly and quarterly performance and take early corrective action when results diverge from plan.
Lead, coach and develop the medical sales and outreach team; translate organizational goals into individual objectives and territory plans, and conduct regular performance and pipeline reviews against clear metrics.
Partner with Analytics and other functions to close gaps in sales data, reporting and performance metrics needed to manage the team effectively.
Ensure timely sales reporting, performance-versus-plan updates and expense administration.
Build and protect strategic relationships with clinics, healthcare practitioners, pharmacists, advocacy groups, unions and insurers, serving as the senior commercial contact for priority accounts and escalated matters.
Lead the negotiation and commercial management of clinic and third-party partnership agreements; assess profitability and recommend renewal, renegotiation or exit, partnering with Legal and Finance to protect compliance, risk and margin.
Own conferences, trade shows and sponsorships, including budgets, business representation and follow-up.
Develop and execute wholesale and third-party partner strategies, converting agreed opportunities into coordinated operating plans and delivery.
Clinc Commercial Operations
Partner with clinic leadership to align practitioner capacity with patient demand, ensuring consultation availability, appointment throughput and renewal cycles are optimized.
D Own commercial performance across the patient journey—from awareness and registration through consultation, first order, renewal and reactivation—using clinic and patient data to identify opportunities and remove barriers to acquisition, conversion and retention.
Establish and monitor clinic performance KPIs: consultation volume, conversion to registration, conversion to purchase, renewal rates, practitioner utilization, cost to serve, and patient satisfaction.
Work with clinic operations and patient care teams to identify automation and workflow improvements that reduce cost to serve while improving patient experience.
Ensure clinic-facing commercial activity respects the separation between clinical care, patient education and brand promotion required by regulation.
Marketing & Brand
Own the medical marketing plan across digital, e-commerce, CRM/lifecycle, practitioner-facing and patient education channels.
Lead the e-commerce commercial agenda in partnership with digital and analytics teams: conversion rate, average order value, basket size, promotional and bundle strategy, shipping and fee structures, and direct billing experience.
Direct lifecycle and retention marketing — onboarding, renewal reminders, reorder prompts, lapsed-patient reactivation — with measurable targets for each program.
Manage creative, media and brand agency relationships, including scopes of work, budgets, timelines and quality of deliverables; ensure consistency with brand guidelines across all sub-brands and patient touchpoints.
Oversee the development of clinically credible and compliant practitioner education and sales enablement materials that equip sales teams and partners to support informed patient conversations.
Own the medical marketing budget, manage spend against plan and use program-level ROI analysis to reallocate investment toward the highest-performing activities.
Analytics & Performance Management
Own the medical KPI dashboard and reporting cadence; ensure leadership has a single, trusted source of truth for patient, sales, clinic and marketing performance.
Build and maintain models for patient cohort behaviour, retention curves, lifetime value, cost per acquisition, channel ROI and margin by product format.
Conduct pricing, promotion and product mix analysis, and make evidence-based recommendations that protect gross margin while remaining accessible to patients.
Design and interpret A/B and campaign tests; institutionalize what works and stop what does not.
Translate analysis into concise, decision-ready recommendations for senior leadership — the expectation is a point of view, not a data dump.
Compliance, Risk & Cross-Functional Leadership
Ensure sales, marketing and clinic commercial activity complies with the Cannabis Act, Health Canada promotional restrictions, provincial requirements and applicable privacy legislation, including rigorous safeguards for patient information and partner confidential data.
Partner effectively with Patient Care, Patient Benefits, Finance, Legal, Regulatory, Supply Chain, Technology and international Medical teams.
Escalate risks early with a proposed mitigation; operate with integrity in every commercial interaction.
Qualifications and Education Requirements:
