The role?
Technical Sales Representative | $80K + Benefits
Have a mechanical mind? A passion for sales? Working experience in industrial machinery? You don't need to be a career salesperson. Mechanical machinery background or equivalent aptitude and a willingness to learn are key.
We're particularly interested in people with experience in:
- Manufacturing, machinery, maintenance, or industrial environments
- Lumber, sawmill, OSB, or engineered wood products
- Mechanical, hydraulic, or electrical systems
- Technical customer service or field support
Considered Assets
- Post-secondary technical training in a related field such as mechanical engineering, industrial maintenance, wood manufacturing, and similar. An equivalent combination of education and experience will be considered
- Technical role in OSB, wood products, engineered wood industry, or related industry
- Manufacturing and/or maintaining machinery
- Industrial field service or maintenance experience
- ERP system experience, preferably Epicor
We're hiring a Technical Sales Representative to join an established, innovative team serving the global engineered wood products industry. This isn't a traditional "sales" role, you'll become a technical resource and trusted partner for customers, helping them find solutions, identify equipment upgrades, and support their operations.
What you'll do:
- Build long-term relationships with customers across the wood products industry
- Visit customer facilities and work directly with maintenance teams, engineers, and plant leadership
- Provide technical support and application guidance
- Identify opportunities for parts, upgrades, retrofits, and equipment improvements
- Help develop technical quotes and proposals
- Coordinate with internal sales, service, manufacturing, and technical teams
- Travel approximately 1–2 times per month throughout Canada, the U.S., and occasionally internationally
You'll need strong communication skills, a natural ability to build relationships, and the confidence to have conversations with customers and understand their needs.
Sales experience is an asset—but we'll help you develop that side of the role if you bring the technical foundation and the right attitude.
What’s in it for you?
- $80,000 salary
- Domestic & international travel opportunities
- Extended health, dental, disability & life insurance
- RRSP matching
