The long-term goal is to prepare high-performing participants for future leadership opportunities, including the potential to manage existing and new Business Centers within the Province of Ontario and take ownership of its people, customers, sales, operations, and profitability.
What you will learn:
With support and mentorship from experienced managers you will learn by doing while rotating through key areas of the business. You will build practical experience in:
- Warehouse and inventory operations
- Customer service and counter sales
- Inside Sales
- Outside Sales
- Purchasing and supplier relationships
- Customer relationship management
- Operational planning
- Financial and business performance
- Team leadership and employee development
- Branch profitability and decision-making
Where this can take you
The primary goal of the program is to prepare you to become a Business Centre Manager, giving you the experience and business knowledge needed to lead a Guillevin location. Along the way, the program also builds skills that can open the door to other career paths across Guillevin, including:
- Outside Sales / Account Management
- Inside Sales
- Operations Management
- Project Management
For ambitious individuals, the long-term opportunity is to run a Business Centre with the autonomy and accountability of an entrepreneur while having the resources and support of a major Canadian organization behind you.
Who we are looking for
We welcome students and recent graduates from all majors and academic backgrounds, with particular interest in candidates from Business, Commerce, Engineering, Supply Chain & Operations, Entrepreneurship, Sales, and Marketing programs.
