The Role

Reporting directly to senior leadership, the Head of Sales is responsible for the end-to-end commercial performance of Geely Auto Canada — from channel network development and dealer management, to sales strategy, compliance, and customer satisfaction. You'll be the brand's most senior commercial voice in market and a key member of the Canadian leadership team.

What You’ll Own

Market Intelligence & Competitive Strategy

• Translate market intelligence into actionable strategies that keep Geely Auto ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving EV landscape.

Channel Network Development

• Identify, evaluate, and onboard the right dealer and distribution partners across Canada, integrating both government relations and dealer group negotiations into a coherent channel strategy.
• Build a retail network that reflects Geely Auto's brand values: accessible, high-quality, and customer-first — from coast to coast.

Sales Performance & Business Planning

• Set and own annual and monthly sales targets; develop localized go-to-market strategies and commercial policies tailored to the Canadian consumer.
• Drive continuous improvement in channel effectiveness — tracking and optimizing KPIs across sales volume, profitability, market share, and customer satisfaction.
• Adapt global strategies to local realities, ensuring Geely Auto's commercial approach resonates authentically with Canadian buyers.

Operational Excellence & Supply Chain Alignment

• Maintain close alignment with supply chain and logistics functions to ensure vehicle availability matches market demand.
• Monitor dealer health and operational performance, proactively identifying and resolving issues before they impact the customer experience.
• Balance brand-building priorities with service operations to ensure the business runs soundly at every stage of growth.

Customer Experience & NPS

• Champion the effective rollout of NPS programs across the dealer network, ensuring customer feedback is captured, acted on, and drives real improvement.
• Treat every piece of customer feedback as a business priority — building a culture where the customer's voice shapes every commercial decision.

Compliance & Risk Management

• Proactively identify and manage operational and regulatory risks across the full sales cycle.
• Ensure all sales activities are conducted in full compliance with Canadian automotive regulations, consumer protection standards, and Geely Auto's global policies.

Brand Ambassadorship

• Serve as the face of Geely Auto in the Canadian market — representing the brand with dealers, partners, industry bodies, and media.
• Inspire, align, and elevate the Canadian sales team, embodying the Geely Auto values of Spirit of Excellence, Innovation Through Curiosity, and Commitment to Empathy in every interaction.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, Engineering, or a related field.

• A demonstrable track record of hitting and exceeding sales targets in a competitive, fast-moving market.
• Deep knowledge of dealer network development and management — from prospecting and onboarding to performance management and relationship building.
• Strong grasp of automotive market dynamics in Canada, including the EV transition, consumer behaviour shifts, and the competitive landscape.
• Exceptional leadership and communication skills — you can rally a team, negotiate with partners, and present to senior stakeholders with equal confidence.
• Full professional proficiency in English is required; proficiency in French or Chinese is a significant asset in the Canadian bilingual market.
• A genuine entrepreneurial spirit — comfortable with ambiguity, energized by ownership, and motivated by the challenge of building something from scratch.
