GoMaterials is one of Canada's fastest-growing companies, recognized by Deloitte, the Globe & Mail, and the Lazaridis Scaleup Program. We’re revolutionizing how landscape contractors source plant and hardscape materials through a B2B marketplace that simplifies procurement in a traditionally outdated industry.
Since our inception, we have helped landscapers save time, money, and stress and plant over 1.5 million plants and trees. Led by a young and eager group of entrepreneurs, GoMaterials is aggressively expanding across North America. We are therefore looking for amazing people to add to our team!

About the role:

We’re looking for a driven and communicative Supplier Development Intern to join our supply chain team. If you thrive in a fast-paced startup environment and enjoy getting things done over the phone, this role is for you. This is an 8-month internship. You’ll support our supplier acquisition efforts by reaching out to landscaping suppliers across North America, helping us build and qualify our supplier network. You’ll gain hands-on experience in B2B outreach, procurement, and CRM management.


What you'll do:

    Supplier Acquisition & Qualification (70%)
  • Conduct outbound outreach (calls and emails) to prospective suppliers to acquire inventory lists and catalogs
  • Research and identify new supplier prospects across target regions
  • Qualify new supplier leads against GoMaterials’ standards for product fit, geography, and reliability
  • Manage the end-to-end supplier onboarding process, including qualification calls and documentation
  • Supplier Relationship Management (20%)
  • Maintain ongoing supplier relationships — follow up on open items, resolve friction, and drive partnership alignment
  • Process and organize incoming supplier catalogs and inventory updates per established SOPs
  • Manage the inventory inbox and triage supplier communications
  • Data & CRM Management (10%)
  • Keep the CRM current with accurate supplier contacts and business information
  • Fill and process customer request forms accurately
  • Coordinate with the Inventory Management team to hand off updated availability and flag data issues
  • Support process documentation and contribute to building institutional knowledge about the supplier network

What you’ll bring:

  • Degree in business, supply chain, communications, or a related field (in progress)

  • Available to work full-time

  • Written and spoken proficiency in English

  • Comfortable making high-volume outbound calls and emails

  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to juggle multiple supplier threads at once

  • Detail-oriented approach to data entry and CRM hygiene

  • Self-starter who can work through a list independently without constant direction

  • Comfortable with a fast-paced, ever-changing startup environment

Nice to Have:

  • Bilingual - French or Spanish

  • Prior internship or co-op experience in sales, procurement, or a related field

  • Familiarity with CRM tools (HubSpot preferred)

  • Exposure to B2B outreach or account coordination

  • Interest in or knowledge of landscaping, horticulture, or the green industry
