Be the reason our customers say, “ Premier was the best part of my day .”

Premier Equipment provides the machinery that keeps Canadian farms, homes, and jobsites running—from big iron to compact tractors and construction equipment. As Branch Manager you’ll own the full P&L for our Kingston store, lead a 30-plus-person, multi-disciplinary team (Parts, Service, Sales, Admin), and turn strategic goals into results our customers can feel in the field. You’ll have the autonomy of a GM with the backing of a decades-old John Deere powerhouse.

What You’ll Do Set the bar & hit it. Translate company strategy into quarterly goals, budgets, and KPIs; run the store like you built it yourself.

Recruit & develop A-players. Hire, onboard, coach, and—when needed—exit team members, always raising the talent density.

Lead through managers. Inspire and hold Parts, Service, Sales, and Admin leads accountable to clear metrics and a shared customer-obsessed culture.

Drive customer obsession. Personally know top customers, resolve escalations, and build long-term relationships.

Balance the scorecard. Make win-win decisions that consider employees, customers, owners, and our local community.

Champion healthy conflict. Surface issues early, debate healthily, decide and commit—keeping the team psychologically safe and results oriented.

Continuously improve. Spot operational bottlenecks, test fixes, and embed the best ones as standardized processes across the branch.

Who You Are Builder & scaler. You’ve led > 25 people across 4 + functions.

People magnet. Proven history of hiring top talent, coaching them to promotions, and compassionately managing under-performance.

Accountable operator. Full P&L ownership experience with clear stories of both major wins and painful failures—and the lessons you squeezed out of them.

Conflict management. Distinguish healthy from unhealthy tension; facilitate tough conversations that end in commitment, not compromises.

Customer-obsessed. Comfortable in high-stakes B2B relationships; you instinctively ask, “How does this make today better for the grower?”

Integrity first. You own your numbers, your mistakes, and your growth.

Bonus Points For Agricultural roots or deep community involvement.

Track record of building new businesses, products, or systems rather than merely transacting.

Local to Kingston, or willing to embed yourself in the community quickly.

Why Premier Impact that matters. Our equipment feeds families. Your leadership will impact farms, food supply chains, and local economies.

Growth runway. We’re consolidating dealerships across Ontario; great performance here opens doors.

Autonomy + support. Think “your own GM” with the resources of an established market leader.

Values-driven culture. We believe in people first, win-wins, straight talk, and pushing ourselves to be the best.

At Premier Equipment, we are committed to fostering an inclusive, accessible work environment, where all employees feel valued, respected and supported. We offer accommodation for applicants with disabilities as part of its recruitment process. If you are contacted to arrange for an interview, please advise us if you require an accommodation.
