Busy Bee Tools is hiring two Woodworking Sales Specialists for its new Coquitlam store. We want people who use woodworking tools and enjoy helping others choose the right equipment. If you have built furniture, cabinets, trim or other wood projects and can explain your choices to a customer, we want to hear from you.

- Professional Growth: Comprehensive training, performance-based reviews, and promotion opportunities.
- Employee Perks: Store discounts opportunities to learn products and grow with the company, subject to plan eligibility.
**What you will do**
- Ask about the customer's project, workspace and budget; recommend suitable machines, hand tools, blades, bits, abrasives and dust collection solutions.
- Explain practical differences among table saws, bandsaws, jointers, planers, routers and related accessories; demonstrate products when trained and authorized.

- A clear interest in selling: confidence starting conversations, matching products to needs and following through to close a sale. Previous retail or consultative sales experience is preferred.
- Willingness to learn unfamiliar brands and work across the broader store. Forklift certification is an asset, not a condition of employment.
