Introduction

Are you a bilingual English and French sales professional who enjoys building customer relationships, providing excellent service, and being part of a dependable team?

Our client, an established Canadian industrial products distributor, is seeking a Bilingual Inside Sales Representative to join its Mississauga team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who values stability, consistency, and a positive working environment. You'll join an experienced, supportive team where collaboration, accountability, and long-term relationships matter.

Fluency in both English and French is essential, as a significant portion of customer interactions are conducted in French.

If you're looking for a reliable, long-term career where your contributions are appreciated and your earning potential can grow, this could be the right fit.

What You’ll Do

You'll be an important part of a busy inside sales team, helping existing business customers with product inquiries, quotations, orders, and account support.

This is primarily a customer-focused inside sales position rather than an aggressive cold-calling role.

You'll work with an established customer base, develop strong relationships, and help customers find the right products and solutions.

Our client provides hands-on product training, making this an excellent opportunity for someone with transferable sales or customer service experience.

Responsibilities

• Respond to customer inquiries by telephone and email in English and French.

• Collaborate with colleagues to ensure consistent customer service.

• Assist customers across different Canadian regions when required.

Qualifications

• Fluent English and French, with strong verbal and written communication skills.

• Previous experience in inside sales, B2B customer service, order processing, or account coordination.

• Experience preparing quotations, managing orders, or supporting business customers.

• Strong mathematical aptitude and comfort working with measurements, quantities, and pricing.

• Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail.

• Ability to manage multiple customer requests in a structured, fast-paced environment.

• A dependable, collaborative, and customer-focused approach.

• Comfortable working on-site in Mississauga five days per week.

• Interest in building a stable, long-term career.

Nice to Have:

• Experience in industrial distribution, manufacturing, wholesale, building materials, or related industries.

• Familiarity with CRM or ERP systems.

• Previous experience supporting established B2B customer accounts.

Direct industrial product experience is not required. Our client is prepared to train someone with the right attitude, communication skills, and willingness to learn.

• Annual base salary of $60,000 to $61,000.

• Estimated first-year performance bonus of $10,000 to $15,000.

• Potential to earn approximately $100,000 in annual total compensation as you become fully established, including bonuses and profit sharing.
