Careers

Sales Manager, Regional, Western Canada, You Run the Show.

We may be in the truck and equipment industry but we require a sales first manager.

Someone with a structured and linear career progression through the profession of sales. You started in sales, became a sales supervisor, and now you are a sales manager. My offer to you is Western Canada regional manager in charge of five offices, and about fifteen outside reps in the booming construction and road industry in BC, AB and SK.

I want your Western Canada sales plan to reflect the market's potential, not what we did last year. I want a contact plan for your team to reach that potential, not an extension of what they're doing now. I'd like you to roll out your strategy, sell it to the troops, and hold the sales team accountable for it's daily performance. You will coach, motivate, and see that it happens. If you understand salesforce.com, or Miller Heiman's Strategic Selling process, you will know what I'm after.

I don't want year over year projections, I don't want you to accept stories, I want you manage our people up to new levels of performance, to change our culture. Our long history means we have huge brand acceptance, the problem is we're not taking advantage of it. You're going to change that and turn our recognition factor into revenue and more satisfied customers.

You Are …
o A sales manager with at least 3-5 years of hands on sales management experience, managing at least five or more reps, not carrying your own account load.
o You are earning over $80k and want to increase that.
o You understand and relate to the truck and construction culture.
o You don't have to be from this industry as I'm more interested in your sales knowledge and sales management ability.
o You've read the books, you've taken the training, you are a sales systems person.
o You are mature enough so others will willingly follow. Motivation is as big a job as accountability.
o You can connect directly with some of the big accounts and talk business process issues with them.
o You are located in Calgary.
o For the first year you may have to travel for two weeks a month to get the job done. As your system and culture takes hold, your travel time will decrease.

Specifically, This Business Is …
A truck equipment and supply group, five locations, with a 35 year history in work trucks, cranes anything you can bolt on a work truck chassis, supplies, power take-offs, hydraulic pumps and motors, valves, hoses and fittings, air & cable controls, tanks, toolboxes, decks, cranes, Ladders, aerial platforms, dump bodies, hoists & cylinders, winches and installation and service.


Great Sales People Need Not Apply.
If you're a great sales person, I don't care. If you are a great sales manager, I do want to talk to you. Please start by sending us your resume, careers@managing.ca.


Thank you.
