Pay:

From CA$60,000.00 per year + performance-based bonuses + company vehicle

Join our dedicated team of Water Treatment Service Technicians and make an impact in the water industry! ControlChem is seeking a full-time Field Technician with a career path into Junior Sales to support clients across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).

This role begins with a 6-12 month training period as a Field Service Technician, where you will gain hands-on technical knowledge while working directly with clients to understand water treatment systems. Throughout this stage, we value individuals who bring honesty, a trustworthy work ethic, and a friendly personality that helps build lasting client relationships. After training, successful candidates will transition into a hybrid role, combining service responsibilities with junior sales activities--including prospecting, connecting with new clients, and developing strong, reliable accounts.

This is an ideal career opportunity for ambitious and personable professionals who want to leverage their technical knowledge into high-end sales success, while being recognized for their integrity and client-first approach. With unlimited income growth potential based on performance, this path rewards both professional skill and genuine character.

Participate in internal and customer meetings as required.

Transition to Junior Sales (Post-Training)

Sales prospecting, cold/warm calling, and engaging with new prospects. Carry out sales activities to develop new accounts and grow existing business. Support senior sales staff while gradually building an independent sales portfolio. Balance service responsibilities with achieving sales growth targets.
