What You Will Do With Us

We are looking for a sharp, customer-focused Inside/Counter Sales Representative to join our electrical wholesale team in Kelowna, BC. This is a front-line role supporting contractors and electricians who rely on us for the right product, accurate information, and fast service.

We strongly encourage Red Seal Automotive or Heavy-Duty Parts Technicians to apply. Your experience reading parts diagrams, cross-referencing numbers, managing inventory, and serving trade customers in a fast-paced counter environment transfers extremely well to electrical wholesale.

Responsibilities:

• Serve walk-in trade customers at the counter — identify needs, locate products, process sales, will-calls, and returns.
• Look up and recommend the correct electrical products (similar to looking up automotive or HD parts).
• Apply a problem-solver mindset to help customers find practical solutions, work through product substitutions, and resolve issues quickly.
• Maintain accurate inventory awareness and communicate stock issues.
• Work closely with warehouse and inside sales to keep orders moving smoothly.
• Build relationships with regular contractor customers through reliable, knowledgeable service.
• Keep the counter organized, professional, and efficient during peak periods.

Qualifications:

• Red Seal Certified Automotive Parts Technician or Heavy-Duty Parts Technician.
• Experience working a busy parts counter serving mechanics, technicians, or trade customers.
• Strong ability to read catalogues, diagrams, and cross-reference part numbers.
• Problem-solver mindset with the ability to think on your feet and find practical solutions for customers.
• Comfortable learning new product lines quickly.
• Solid computer skills for order entry and inventory systems (Microsoft Office, AS400).
• Reliable, professional, and customer-first attitude.
• Ability to lift and move product as required in a warehouse/counter environment.
• Previous electrical experience is an asset but not required.
• We value people who already understand how to support trade customers under pressure and can transfer those skills into electrical distribution.

The anticipated annual base salary range for this position is negotiable. Final compensation within this range will be determined by factors such as relevant experience, skills, qualifications, and internal equity. This range does not include variable pay or other components of Rexel’s total rewards package.

What We Offer:

• Our employees enjoy a positive work- life balance while thriving in an environment that is dynamic and motivated by new and exciting challenges.
• We provide competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits plans, and pension plans, along with a remarkable range of career opportunities - whether advancing in your current field or exploring something entirely new. If you are motivated, we will help you find the career path that suits you.
• Rexel Canada is committed to Employment Equity and values a diverse workforce, recognizing each employee's unique talents and skills.
