Job description
Launch Your Career. Learn the Business. Lead Your Own Team.
For over 100 years, our client has been a leading national wholesale distributor. They provide quality and cutting-edge products that help support residential, commercial and infrastructure initiatives across Canada.
If you're a new grad who wants more than a desk job — someone excited by supply chain, sales, business development, and entrepreneurship — this is your chance to build a real career from the ground up.

Relocation: Please note that successful candidates to this position may be required to relocate within Canada to complete their training. Relocation assistance will be provided. We have opportunities available across the country!


What You'll Do
As a Management Trainee, you'll rotate through a structured, four-phase program designed to give you full visibility into how a successful business operates — from supply chain and operations to sales, leadership, and strategy.
You won't just observe — you'll own projects, manage accounts, build customer relationships, and make real business decisions, all with the guidance of experienced leaders across the country.

The Program: Learn the Business From the Inside Out
Duration: Years
Phase 1: Warehouse and Customer Service (12 Months)
Get hands-on with the backbone of the business.
  • Shipping, receiving, and inventory management
  • Product knowledge and vendor coordination
  • Customer service and counter sales
Phase 2: Customer Relationships & Procurement (12 Months)
Step into problem-solving and project support.
  • Build strong customer and vendor relationships
  • Manage larger projects and complex orders
Phase 3: Account Management and Proactive Sales (15-18 Months)
Drive growth like an entrepreneur.
  • Identify and win new business opportunities
  • Negotiate contracts and grow key accounts
Phase 4: Leadership & Operations (3 Months)
Prepare to run the show.
  • Lead and mentor a team
  • Set strategy, vision, and performance goals
  • Transition from trainee to business leader
Your Career Destination: Manager
After completing the program, you'll be ready to step into a Manager role — running your own location like a business owner.

Qualifications
  • University degree or college diploma - all disciplines of study will be considered
  • Positive attitude and results-oriented mindset
  • Desire to continuously learn and grow
  • Excellent leadership, customer service and organizational skills
  • Possess a strong work ethic and a high standard of integrity
  • Valid driver's license
