Remote, but based locally to Owen Sound, ON Posted Date: Posted 23 hours ago Application Deadline Date: November 30, 2025 Good art deserves good bones. For over 24 years, Upper Canada Stretchers has been the trusted foundation for artists, galleries, and museums across North America. We are the leading manufacturer of premium, custom art supports—from precision‑crafted stretcher bars and panels to innovative, custom‑shaped frames. We blend artisanal quality with precision engineering, enabling the creative community to realize their most ambitious visions.

Full-Cycle Sales: Manage the sales process from initial cold outreach and qualification through to closing the deal and ensuring a smooth transition to the account management team. Pipeline Management: Utilize CRM tools to build and manage a robust pipeline of opportunities, forecasting accurately and consistently hitting quarterly and annual sales targets. Market Strategy: Conduct research to identify emerging markets and product opportunities where Upper Canada Stretchers can establish a foothold. Relationship Building: Act as an ambassador for the brand, embodying our commitment to quality, precision, and customer care. What You Bring We can teach you the nuances of art supports, but we cannot teach the drive for sales. Required Qualifications 3+ years of successful B2B Business Development/Sales experience with a verifiable track record of exceeding quota and landing new accounts an asset A “hunter” mentality—you are driven, comfortable with cold outreach (phone, email, social), and possess a strong desire to win new business. Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to articulate the premium value of a specialized product. Proven ability to work autonomously in a remote sales environment, managing a large territory (Canada/USA). High proficiency with CRM software (e.g. monday.com) and sales tools. A Strong Asset A background, education, or deep interest in Fine Arts, Framing, or the Creative Arts community. Location near our Owen Sound, ON manufacturing facility for occasional team meetings and deeper product immersion. Why Join Upper Canada Stretchers? Growth Opportunity: Join a North American leader during a period of rapid market expansion. Premium Product: Sell a high-quality product that is integral to the preservation and presentation of fine art. Autonomy: We trust our sales team to manage their territory and deliver results. Competitive Compensation: Attractive base salary plus a highly competitive, uncapped commission structure. Ready to build the foundation for artistic excellence across North America?
