This is a remote position.

Motor Gear Trader (MGT) | Remote, Canada

Opportunity type: Independent business-building partnership

Stage: Beta to launch and scale

Initial phase: 90-day mutual validation and operating-plan period

Economics: Performance-based; no salary or guaranteed monthly income

This is not a conventional salaried executive job. It is for a proven entrepreneur who is already active in this market and wants to build a larger, scalable company with the support of Estoras Group.

About MGT

Motor Gear Trader is an Estoras Group venture building a modern marketplace for buying and selling pre-owned recreational vehicles and gear, including ATVs, dirt bikes, go-karts, personal watercraft, racing bikes, and snowmobiles. The platform enables users to browse and post listings, connect with buyers and sellers, and leave reviews. MGT is moving from beta to launch and scale and operates according to Estoras Group standards of performance, accountability, and disciplined execution.

Who We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who is already doing a version of this work - perhaps through a one-person consultancy, brokerage, dealership, marketplace, e-commerce venture, or related power sports or recreational business. You are excellent at the work, have industry credibility and commercial relationships, and can generate opportunities, but you want to move beyond being the only person responsible for selling, delivering, administering, and growing the business. You are not looking for a guaranteed paycheque. You understand the realities of entrepreneurship because you already live them. What you want is a stronger platform: shared infrastructure, strategic support, operating discipline, complementary expertise, and the opportunity to build enterprise value as part of a group.

The Opportunity

The Managing Director / Operating Partner will take hands-on responsibility for MGT's launch, market validation, revenue development, marketplace growth, and day-to-day operating direction. The goal is to combine the incoming partner's existing knowledge, relationships, business activity, and execution ability with MGT's platform and Estoras Group's support to build a sustainable company - not simply create another self-employed role. This is a builder's role with meaningful autonomy and direct accountability. The successful partner will shape the strategy, create revenue, develop the operating team, and participate in the long-term value they help create, subject to written terms and agreed milestones.

What You Bring

• An active consulting practice, operating business, marketplace, brokerage, dealer network, or comparable entrepreneurial track record in power sports, automotive, recreation, e-commerce, or a closely related field.

- Evidence that you can generate revenue, attract customers or partners, and deliver strong work without depending on a fixed salary.
- Existing market relationships, audience access, client opportunities, domain knowledge, or other commercial assets that can help accelerate MGT.




- The ambition and ability to build repeatable systems, delegate work, develop a team, and grow beyond solopreneurship.
- Sound judgment, transparency, resilience, and comfort being measured against revenue, margin, cash flow, marketplace activity, and execution milestones.

What Estoras Group Provides

• A group environment designed to help capable operators build stronger standalone companies.
- Strategic planning, leadership guidance, accountability rhythms, and access to peer Managing Directors.
- Access, as agreed in the operating plan, to shared capabilities that may include finance and administration, marketing, technology, systems, business development, and other group resources.
- Opportunities for collaboration, referrals, and cross-company support where strategically appropriate.
- A pathway to long-term economic participation through performance-based compensation and potential ownership, governed by clear written terms.

Estoras Group support is intended to improve the venture's ability to grow; it is not a guarantee that Estoras Group will fund a salary, monthly draw, operating losses, or a particular level of income.

Initial 90-Day Build Phase

• Map the partner's current business activity, relationships, capabilities, intellectual property, and potential conflicts, and agree what - if anything - will be integrated into MGT under a separate written plan.
- Assess platform readiness and lead the transition from beta to a focused commercial launch.
- Define the operating plan, market positioning, priorities, pricing, revenue model, and go-to-market strategy.
- Establish acquisition channels for buyers, sellers, dealers, advertisers, and strategic partners.
- Create early commercial traction and validate the assumptions that will drive marketplace liquidity, trust, retention, and engagement.
- Implement weekly KPIs, monthly reporting, forecasting, and a practical accountability cadence.
- Deliver an agreed 6- to 12-month plan covering product, revenue, marketing, staffing, operating costs, and scale.

Requirements

Core Responsibilities

• Lead MGT's strategy, commercial execution, partnerships, marketplace development, and operating performance.
- Translate customer and market feedback into product priorities, release plans, and measurable outcomes.
- Oversee technical teams and vendors, including roadmap delivery, quality assurance, releases, support, uptime, and service levels.
- Own budgeting, forecasting, cost control, vendor relationships, risk management, and cash-flow discipline.
- Build a lean, high-output team across product, technology, sales, partnerships, customer success, and operations as revenue supports growth.
- Develop trusted relationships with dealers,



distributors, industry partners, customers, and enthusiast communities.
- Maintain clear scorecards, project plans, risk logs, decision records, and transparent updates for Estoras Group leadership.

Ideal Background

• Founder, owner-operator, independent consultant, Managing Director, General Manager, or senior operator in a startup, marketplace, platform, e-commerce, SaaS, automotive, power sports, or high-growth business.
- Proven success in revenue generation, partnerships, customer acquisition, conversion, retention, and commercial execution.
- Product and technical fluency, including experience working with software teams, contractors, or vendors.
- Robust financial, KPI, forecasting, contract, negotiation, and operational-management skills.
- Experience with marketplaces, trading platforms, dealer networks, fundraising, contractor-led teams, or performance-based compensation is an asset.

How Success Will Be Measured

• Commercial launch progress and platform readiness.
- Qualified buyers, sellers, dealers, partners, and listing growth.
- Revenue collected, gross margin, operating discipline, and progress toward positive cash flow.
- Marketplace activity, conversion, repeat usage, trust, retention, and customer satisfaction.
- Delivery against agreed product, marketing, partnership, staffing, and reporting milestones.
- Evidence that MGT is becoming a scalable company rather than remaining dependent on one person's effort.

Economics and Potential Ownership

• There is no salary, monthly retainer, guaranteed draw, guaranteed number of hours, or guaranteed monthly income attached to this opportunity.
- Earnings may include agreed commissions, revenue share, gross-margin participation, project or delivery income, profit participation, or milestone compensation. The mix will depend on the operating plan and will be documented in writing.
- Payments will generally be tied to revenue actually collected, realized gross margin, completed work, or other defined results - not activity alone.
- Only pre-approved business expenses will be reimbursed under the written agreement.
- Potential equity or another ownership interest may be earned through a milestone-based vesting arrangement. Ownership is not automatic and will depend on performance, mutual fit, formal approvals, and definitive agreements.
- Any formal appointment as Managing Director or corporate director will occur only after the validation phase, required approvals, and execution of the applicable agreements.

The right person will see this structure as familiar and attractive: you already know how to create your own income, and you want the support and shared platform to turn that ability into a valuable company.

How to Apply
