We are committed to building a strong and respectful workplace, guided by values that truly reflect who we are.
At K.I.D. Toys, we do more than distribute products—we create moments of joy for families from coast to coast.
As our Sales Director, you will be the driving force behind our commercial growth. Your playground? All of Canada. Your mission? To elevate our brand, expand our product lines, and lead our sales team to new heights—all while keeping your inner child alive.
Reporting directly to senior management, you will play a key role in our field performance by combining strategic vision, strong relationship-building skills, and a genuine passion for the toy industry.
Lead the annual sales plan and execute it with confidence to achieve and exceed company objectives.
Identify and pursue new growth opportunities among independent retailers, major chains, and key accounts.
Expand and strengthen our distribution network across Canada while effectively serving both English- and French-speaking markets.

Lead engaging team meetings that foster collaboration, accountability, and a results-driven culture.
Maintain and grow trusted relationships with key customers and major accounts.
Negotiate mutually beneficial agreements, including pricing, promotions, exclusivity arrangements, and delivery terms.
Ensure customer satisfaction remains at the center of every decision and interaction.
Partner closely with senior management to analyze sales performance and prepare insightful sales reports.

You have demonstrated success coaching, motivating, and leading sales teams toward ambitious goals.
