Business Development Representative
- Full-time
About Canada Masq
We are on a mission to protect all Canadians. Canada Masq designs and produces disposable medical supplies right here in Ontario, and we have the capacity to supply the whole country. What we're missing is the people who will open the doors.
We are looking for a hunter who believes in that mission. You're hungry, driven, and ready to prove yourself. You get up every day wanting to open new doors, and you know that every distributor, wholesaler, pharmacy, corporate, and OEM account you win puts Canadian-made supplies in the hands of the people who rely on them.
There is no territory waiting for you. You will build it. You'll help us open new channels, learn fast, and grow with a company that is building a more resilient Canadian supply chain for medical supplies.
If you are eager to make an impact and want to build something you will be proud of, we want to meet you.
About the Role
This is a hunter role at the front of our sales process. You will open conversations with net-new distributor, wholesaler, retail and pharmacy, corporate, and OEM accounts across Canada by prospecting by phone and email, working trade shows, and following up on referrals and marketing leads. You will qualify each opportunity, hand it to the sales team, and support them through negotiation and close. You will help introduce a growing portfolio into channels where the company is just beginning to build its presence.

This role is based out of our office. You will need to be able to come into the office one day a week for meetings, and travel to prospect meetings, account visits, and trade shows across Canada as required.
What You'll Do
- Prospect daily by phone and email into distributors, wholesalers, retail and pharmacy accounts, corporate buyers, and OEMs across Canada, including channels serving long-term care
- Build and maintain a target account and contact list; research accounts to identify the right buyer before reaching out
- Run consistent outbound activity (cold calls, emails, and LinkedIn outreach) against a weekly call and contact target

- Grow distribution of the full product portfolio through retail and pharmacy channels

- Meet activity and qualified opportunity targets; self-source through outbound, trade shows, referrals, and personal network
What You Bring
- Bachelor's degree in business, commerce, marketing, or a related field, or equivalent sales experience
- 1 to 3 years of B2B sales, business development, or other outbound or prospecting experience (B2C sales backgrounds also considered); a strong track record of activity and results matters more than years or industry
