A bit about us

Tocha is a BC-born company producing hot sauce without the heat - bold, balanced sauces designed for flavour, not extreme spice. Retailers and in-store experiences are at the heart of what we do, which is why we’re hiring an approachable, driven Brand Ambassador to join our Brand Experience Team.

About the role

As a Brand Ambassador, you’ll be the face of Tocha during in-store sampling sessions across a designated region. You’ll chat with customers, help them discover the right sauce for their tastebuds, and demystify our hot sauce without the heat. No prior sampling experience is needed, just a positive attitude, strong communication skills, and comfort engaging with all kinds of people.
In this position, you’ll split your time between in-store demos and maintaining retailer relationships and inventory management across our Greater Toronto retailers.

Role Responsibilities

- Hosting in-store tastings and maintaining a clean, inviting setup in accordance with Tocha branding
- Educating customers on flavours, ingredients, allergens, pairings, and our brand story
- Encouraging sales in a friendly, non-pushy way

- and sharing customer insights with the Tocha team




- Building and maintaining strong relationships with store partners
