LGM is a national leader in providing warranty, finance and insurance services to the Canadian automotive industry. Since 1998, LGM has partnered with leading automotive manufacturers and dealerships across Canada to deliver award-winning F&I; solutions. As part of our next phase of growth, the SecureDrive brand is expanding rapidly nationally, offering a full suite of used-vehicle protection products that combine performance, technology, and dealer support.

The Opportunity
As a Dealer Development Manager for the Ottawa region , you will own a high-potential territory and be the face of LGM and SecureDrive with auto dealers in the area. This is a pure business development role: you will prospect, cold call, and leverage your existing dealer network to open doors, win current rooftop relationships, and convert them to selling LGM’s extended warranty and insurance products.

You’ll spend most of your time in the field, building credibility with Dealer Principals, GMs, and F&I; Managers, challenging the status quo, and showing them how SecureDrive programs can grow their F&I; profit and retention. Backed by a national brand, strong product suite, and internal training/support, you’ll have the autonomy to run your territory like your own business.

The Ideal Candidate
You’ve already managed a sales territory and know how to prospect, plan your travel, and consistently grow dealer penetration. You bring existing relationships with auto dealerships in the Ottawa region (or can quickly build them) and have credibility with Dealer Principals, GMs, and F&I; teams. Experience in banking or automotive finance - especially as a Dealer Relationship Manager or auto finance rep calling on dealer groups - is a strong asset and will help you ramp up quickly in this role.
