Outside Sales Representative – Ontario
Gatsteel Service Centre (a Division of Venture Steel Inc.)
(In‑Office + Field Role)
Venture Steel has emerged as a leading flat-rolled metal processor and distributor focused upon providing industry-best service in Canada, the United States, and Mexico. An intense service culture, combined with modern processing equipment and our proprietary SSCM software platform enable us to provide real-time order visibility and industry-leading service to our customers
We are hiring a high‑energy, results‑driven Outside Sales Representative to expand our footprint across Ontario within our Gatsteel division. This role is built for sales professionals who believe opportunity is created through activity - dialing phones, visiting plants, asking for the order, and outworking the competition. This role is also part of our long-term growth plan.
Whether you are an experienced sales professional in the steel industry or an ambitious early-career candidate eager to learn the business, this role offers the opportunity to develop within a growing organization. You’ll work alongside experienced sales professionals to learn the business and help build the next generation of talent as our team continues to evolve.
This is an in‑office and field‑based role. When you’re not visiting customers, you’re in the office prospecting, preparing visits, and building pipeline.
