Are you a results-oriented sales professional with a deep network in Western Canada's heavy industrial sector?

Pipeline Management: Build and maintain a robust funnel of qualified opportunities, ensuring accurate forecasting for leadership.

Client Engagement: Conduct regular site visits and inspections to validate project scopes and strengthen relationships with plant management and maintenance leaders.

Proposal Leadership: Lead the end-to-end commercial process, from discovery and scope development to proposal review and final contract negotiations.

Internal Collaboration: Partner with operations, estimating, and technical staff to create competitive pricing models and winning value propositions.

Market Intelligence: Monitor competitor activities and industry trends to inform bid strategies and capitalize on market shifts.

Qualifications

Experience: Minimum of 5-10 years of experience in business development or sales specifically within industrial contracting or heavy industrial services (e.g., refractory, coatings, scaffolding, mechanical).

Track Record: Demonstrated success in generating significant revenue and winning large-scale industrial projects.

Regional Network: Strong existing relationships with key decision-makers in the Western Canadian industrial market.

Technical Acumen: Ability to understand technical scopes and effectively communicate with engineering and maintenance teams.

Commercial Skills: solid understanding of pricing strategies, contract structures, and margin management.
