NOTE: compensation package includes base salary + commissions

Job Summary

We are a fast-growing, industry-leading manufacturer of premium, specialized crop-processing equipment. We're seeking a driven and self-reliant Sales Manager to oversee our sales team and maintain momentum in our high-growth market. Based in the Ottawa, Ontario area, this role focuses on managing Account Executives (our sales reps) to ensure full pipelines, consistent engagement across all stages of the sales funnel, and disciplined weekly outbound execution. You will guide each Account Executive in planning and executing a robust slate of outbound activities every week to keep the sales engine running steadily. With senior management (CEO and COO) actively involved in sales strategy, you'll handle the day-to-day operational leadership--keeping the "drum beat" of sales going strong. We're looking for a mature, independent professional who takes initiative, makes sound decisions without needing constant guidance, and thrives in a no-nonsense, merit-based environment focused on hard work and results. If you're a proven sales leader who lightens the load for senior management and aligns with our straightforward, performance-driven culture, this is your chance to drive impact.
