Job description

About the job

Position: Entry‑Level Sales Representative – Sustainable Agriculture

Location: Alberta or Saskatchewan (remote with road travel)

Reports to: Sales Director

About AGT Soileos: We’re changing how the world grows food. 🌱 At AGT Soileos, we make Soileos a first‑of‑its‑kind micronutrient fertilizer that boosts crop yields, improves soil health, and helps farmers grow more sustainably. Our product is non‑polluting, climate positive, and designed to make agriculture part of the solution to climate change.

We’re growing fast and looking for an Entry‑Level Sales Representative to join our Canadian team. If you’re curious about sustainable agtech, love organizing, and want to work with people who are passionate about making a difference, this could be your start.

What You’ll Do

In this role, you’ll be the go‑to support for our sales operations – helping our team and customers stay connected, organized, and informed. You’ll manage details behind the scenes so our Sales Managers can focus on field relationships and growth.

Here’s what a typical week might include:

• Serve as a trusted advisor for retail partners and customers, providing technical insights on product applications and benefits.
• Develop and execute sales strategies to achieve company objectives, revenue targets, and grow Soileos' market presence.
• Identify new business opportunities, market trends, and strategic sales channels to drive customer adoption.
• Present technical product information to key decision‑makers at retail and grower levels.
• Direct customer inquiries to the most suitable team member for resolution.
• Conduct field trials and product demonstrations, educating potential customers on agronomic benefits and product efficacy.
• Analyze competitive market data and customer needs to develop customized solutions for customers.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams, including marketing, product development, and research, to align on product positioning and market strategies.
• Monitor sales performance and adjust strategies to meet changing market dynamics.
• Developing presentations, reports, and follow‑up materials that enable rapid decision‑making within the sales department.
• Making sure marketing materials and samples are stocked and ready to go.
• Keeping customer and retailer information up to date in our CRM.

You’ll learn how sales in agriculture really work, from logistics to customer success, and build a foundation for future growth in agtech, sustainability, or business development.

What We’re Looking For

• A diploma or degree in Business, Agriculture, Environmental Studies, Marketing, or equivalent experience.
• Real‑world experience in sales support, logistics, customer service, or marketing.
• Excellent organization and follow‑through (you’re the kind of person who likes checking things off lists).
• Great communicator – you enjoy working with people and solving problems.
• Comfortable using Excel, PowerPoint, and (bonus!) CRM tools like HubSpot or Salesforce.
• Curious about agriculture, sustainability, and innovation.

Why You’ll Love Working Here

• You’ll get hands‑on experience with one of Canada’s leading sustainable agtech startups.
• You’ll join a team that’s supportive, down‑to‑earth, and genuinely passionate about what we do.
• You’ll be part of a mission‑driven company making farming better for people and the planet.

AGT Soileos is committed to diversity and inclusion. We encourage candidates of all backgrounds to apply and are happy to provide accommodations as needed during the application process.
