Sales & Sales Management Recruiter in Toronto
Campbell Morden recruits sales professionals who understand what they’re selling, who they’re selling to, and how to earn credibility in technical markets. With deep experience across manufacturing, industrial, and technical sales, we connect companies with salespeople and sales leaders who can speak the language of engineers, plant managers, and technical buyers while still driving results. Based in Toronto and serving the GTA and Canada, we bring a specialized approach to sales recruitment that goes beyond resumes and job boards to find people who can actually perform in the role.

Technical Sales Requires More Than Sales Experience
A lot of sales recruiters treat sales experience as if it transfers easily from one industry to another. In technical and industrial sales, it often doesn't. Someone selling capital equipment, automation, or industrial products has to understand the product well enough to have a real conversation with an engineer or plant manager. They need to know what questions to ask, what matters to the buyer, and when they need to bring in a technical expert. That can be difficult to judge from a resume or a standard sales interview. It's also where a generalist sales recruiter in Toronto can miss the mark. They may find you someone with a strong sales record, but that doesn't necessarily mean they can sell your product to your customers.

Led by Someone Who Knows the Technical Side
Our sales and sales management practice is led by Brian Pho, who built his practice in manufacturing and technical sales recruiting and became a partner at Campbell Morden in 2010. That background means we're evaluating candidates the way a hiring manager in your industry actually would, not just on sales numbers alone.

How We Approach a Sales Search
We start with what the sale actually requires. Not just quota history, but whether the candidate can speak credibly to the technical audience they'll be selling to.
We draw on our existing network first. Years of relationships in manufacturing and industrial sales means we're often already in touch with strong candidates.
We extend beyond the GTA when needed. Through our affiliate NPA network of 500+ independent recruiters, we can build a sales force across Canada, not just locally.
We screen before you see a name. Every candidate is assessed against your specific product, market, and sales cycle, not a generic sales profile.
Frequently Asked Questions

Local relationships matter for regional hires, but for sales roles specifically, industry depth matters more than geography. We combine being based in Toronto and the GTA with a technical sales network that extends across Canada.
