We are hiring an Outside Sales Representative on behalf of our client, a well-established and growing Western Canadian battery distributor, to grow their business across the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island.

• Find, approach, and win new customers in the territory
• Lead with the company’s key strategic brand to open doors with new accounts
• Build and manage a pipeline of opportunities, with a focus on gross margin, not just revenue
• Give customers expert advice on the right battery and power solutions for their needs
• Follow through on quotes, orders, and issues quickly to deliver outstanding service
• Work closely with inside sales and supply chain to keep customers in stock and support forecasting
• Keep accurate account and pipeline records, and represent the company at customer events and trade shows

What You’ll Need:

• A track record of growing a territory and winning new business
• Strong relationship-building, needs-discovery, and closing skills
• Battery, electrical, or technical product knowledge is an asset
• Comfortable with CRM, ERP, and Microsoft Office tools
• Valid driver’s license and a reliable vehicle, with the ability to travel regularly to Vancouver Island

This Role Is Ideal For:

• A B2B sales rep who has grown a territory and wants a bigger book to build on
• Someone from distribution, automotive aftermarket, electrical, or industrial sales
• A trusted advisor who leads with service and product knowledge
• A self-motivated rep who makes good decisions independently
• A team-first professional who wants long-term growth

What We Can Offer You:

• $65,000 - $70,000 base salary plus commission (target total compensation around $100,000)
• Commission guaranteed for the first 6 months
• Car allowance, phone, and approved expenses
