Want to Grow a Business Without Giving Up Your Life?

Business Development Manager – Automotive

Silverstar Automotive Solutions | Ottawa, Ontario

Part-Time | 20–25 Hours/Week | $30–$38/Hour + Performance Bonuses + Mileage

Maybe you’re good at building relationships and generating business—but you’re tired of the typical sales job.

Constant pressure.

A rigid schedule.

Chasing unrealistic quotas.

Working evenings and weekends.

Or selling for a company that doesn’t deliver what you promised the customer.

We’re offering something different.

Silverstar Automotive Solutions is looking for a relationship-driven business development professional who wants the freedom to get out into the Ottawa automotive community, build real relationships, and help grow a respected local company.

What’s In It for You?

A strong guaranteed income.

Earn $30–$38 per hour, depending on experience, plus performance bonuses tied to profitable new business.

No nights or weekends.

Your customers are business owners and managers. You’ll meet them during normal business hours.

Flexibility.

This is a 20–25 hour-per-week position with flexibility to organize your prospecting, meetings and field visits.

You're not starting from scratch.

You’ll represent an established automotive business with two growing locations, advanced diagnostic and ADAS calibration capabilities, and a reputation for quality.

You're selling something customers actually need.

Collision centres need dependable calibration partners. Fleets need reliable maintenance and repair. Your job is to connect those businesses with a company capable of helping them.

Your success creates opportunity.

As the commercial customer base grows, there is potential for this position to grow into a full-time role.

And yes—we reimburse approved business mileage.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

This isn't a sit-behind-a-desk sales position.

You'll be out in the Ottawa market meeting people,



building relationships and creating opportunities.

Your focus will be on two areas:

- Building relationships with collision centres that need dependable ADAS calibration, diagnostic and alignment services
- Developing small commercial fleet accounts that need reliable maintenance and mechanical repair

You'll meet owners, managers, estimators and fleet decision-makers. You'll ask questions, learn what isn't working with their current providers, show them how Silverstar can help, and stay in touch.

When you win an account, you'll work with our team to make sure we deliver on what you promised.

That's the job.

Who We're Looking For

We're less interested in the perfect résumé than we are in finding the right person.

You should be someone who:

- Likes meeting people and developing relationships
- Is comfortable walking into a business and starting a conversation
- Follows up when you say you will
- Can talk to owners and decision-makers without sounding like a scripted salesperson
- Is organized enough to manage your opportunities and CRM
- Can work independently without someone constantly looking over your shoulder
- Understands that great B2B sales is about trust, consistency and solving problems

Automotive industry experience is strongly preferred. Experience in collision repair, automotive parts, paint or equipment sales, fleet services, insurance claims, automotive glass, dealership wholesale, towing, transportation or B2B account management could translate very well into this position.

And if you already know people in Ottawa's collision, automotive or commercial fleet community,



we definitely want to talk to you.

How We'll Know You're Winning

We're not interested in measuring success by how busy you look.

We're interested in results.

That means

- Quality conversations with decision-makers
- New collision and fleet accounts
- Accounts that turn into recurring customers
- Profitable revenue growth
- Customers who stay with us
- Consistent follow-up
- Solid relationships between your customers and our internal team

A Few Must-Haves

You'll need

- Previous business development, outside sales or account-management experience
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- A valid Ontario driver's licence and reliable transportation
- The ability to travel throughout the Ottawa area
- Comfort using CRM and basic business software
- The discipline to manage your own schedule and follow-up

Knowledge of ADAS calibration, collision repair or fleet maintenance is an advantage—but we can teach you our services and processes. We can't teach initiative, reliability or the ability to build trust.

Interested?

You don't need to write us a corporate cover letter.

Send us your résumé and a short introduction telling us:

- What you've done
- What part of the automotive, collision or fleet world you know
- Who you're accustomed to doing business with
- Why this opportunity caught your attention

If you're great at building relationships, know the Ottawa market and like the idea of helping grow a local automotive company without sacrificing your evenings and weekends, we'd like to hear from you.
