The ideal candidate will have experience within scaffolding, access, formwork, equipment rental, construction products or a closely related industry. Previous branch or operations management experience would be advantageous, but strong sales professionals with the right industry background are encouraged to apply.

What We're Looking For
- Strong B2B sales and business development experience.
- Experience selling to contractors, industrial or commercial customers.

- Strong understanding of the local Nova Scotia / Atlantic Canada construction market is highly desirable.
- Proven ability to develop relationships and win new business.
- Commercially minded with strong negotiation and communication skills.
- Previous Branch Manager, Sales Manager, Operations Manager or similar leadership experience is an advantage, but not essential.

The Opportunity
This is a chance for a strong construction-focused sales professional to step into a broader branch leadership role, or for an experienced branch leader to take ownership of an established operation and drive its growth across Nova Scotia.
A substantial compensation package is available for the right candidate.
If you have a strong sales background within scaffolding, access or an adjacent construction industry, we'd be interested in hearing from you.
