BHD Instrumentation is a leading provider of instrumentation and industrial test equipment solutions, specializing in sales, calibration, repair, and rentals. We're a high-growth company backed by strategic investors, focused on solving complex challenges for industrial clients across Canada. If you're driven by results, thrive in dynamic environments, and want to build a career in a company that rewards bold execution, this is your opportunity. We're not looking for order-takers - we need challengers who redefine how customers think about their problems.

Summary:

As an Outside Sales Representative, you'll be the frontline force driving revenue growth by identifying opportunities, challenging customer assumptions, and delivering tailored solutions that solve real-world instrumentation challenges. This role demands high energy, extensive travel (up to 50-70% across Alberta, BC, and beyond), and a relentless focus on closing deals. You'll report directly to the VP, Sales and have clear paths to advancement into senior sales, management, or strategic roles for top performers.

Job Duties:

• Prospect and Hunt Aggressively: Identify and pursue new business opportunities through cold outreach, networking, and leveraging industry events. We're seeking someone hungry to build a pipeline from scratch, expect 20-30% of your time on proactive lead generation.
• Challenge and Solve Customer Problems: Adopt a Challenger Sales approach - teach customers new insights about their operations, tailor solutions from our portfolio (e.g., calibration tools, test equipment, rentals), and differentiate us from competitors. Focus on root-cause analysis: diagnose inefficiencies in industrial testing processes and propose high-impact fixes.
• Travel and Build Relationships: Hit the road to visit clients on-site (e.g., oil & gas, manufacturing, utilities sectors). Conduct demos, negotiate contracts, and close deals face-to-face. Willingness to travel extensively (overnight stays are common) is non-negotiable - leverage this to forge deep, trust-based relationships.
• Drive Revenue and Metrics: Achieve quarterly quotas, track CRM data, and collaborate with internal teams (calibration experts, service techs, etc.) to ensure seamless delivery. Report on wins, losses, and market insights to refine strategy.
• Continuous Improvement: Stay ahead of industry trends (e.g., emerging tech in instrumentation), provide feedback on product gaps, and mentor junior team members as you advance.

Requirements:

• Proven Track Record: 3+ years in outside sales, ideally in industrial equipment, instrumentation, or B2B technical sales. Demonstrated success in hitting targets (provide examples in your application).
• Hungry and Driven Mindset: You're self-motivated, resilient to rejection, and obsessed with winning. We want someone who views sales as a strategic battle - psychologically attuned to customer needs, with the grit to push through obstacles.
• Challenger Sales Expertise: Skilled in consultative selling; you don't just pitch products - you uncover hidden problems, educate clients, and tailor solutions that create massive value. Technical aptitude (e.g., understanding of calibration/test equipment) is a plus; we'll train the rest.
• Travel Readiness: Valid driver's license, passport, and enthusiasm for road warrior life. Comfortable with 50-70% travel for in-person visits; remote work flexibility when not in the field.
• Career-Oriented: Ambitious with a desire for rapid advancement, e.g., into sales leadership or business development. Bachelor's degree preferred but not required if you've got the results to back it up.
• Soft Skills: Excellent communication, negotiation, and problem-solving abilities. Tech-savvy (CRM, MS Office, etc.) and adaptable in fast-paced environments.

What We Offer:

• Competitive Compensation: Base + uncapped commissions, performance bonuses, and equity potential for stars.
• Career Growth: Clear advancement paths - top performers move up quickly (e.g., to Sales Director in 2-36 years). We invest in training and mentorship.
• Culture: High-impact environment where execution wins. Work with a lean, strategic team focused on leverage points like customer innovation and market dominance - no bureaucracy, just results.

If you're a high-IQ hustler who sees sales as a system for outsized impact, apply now. Send your resume and a brief note on your biggest sales win (and why it succeeded). We're brutally selective - only the hungry need to apply. No excuses; just results.
