The Business Development Executive will be based in Brampton, Ontario and will report to the President.

This role is a true hunter seat: outbound origination of new OEM programs and new dealer accounts across both markets. Growth will extend beyond the core material handling base into emerging demand in FOPS/ROPS, EV transition, cold storage, mining, and defense. The ideal candidate will be someone who has personally de-risked a concentrated customer base, opened a second major account when the business depended on one, and can run OEM qualification cycles and dealer transactional sales at the same time.

Responsibilities

- Own the full sales pipeline from outbound origination through quote to close, across US and Canada
- Build new OEM relationships and open new dealer accounts through cold prospecting and direct outreach
- Develop direct OEM relationships across cold storage, extreme environment, and standard material handling segments
- Expand dealer relationships from transactional order-taking into proactively sold accounts
- Pursue emerging demand in EV transition, cold storage, mining, and defense as net-new revenue verticals
- Maintain full pipeline visibility in HubSpot with accurate stage, value, and close-date discipline, and report pipeline health weekly
- Coordinate with Engineering, Quality, and Plant Operations on RFQ response, capacity, and delivery commitments for multi-phase OEM RFQs
