CANADA: Sales Development Program Associate - Campus Recruiting

We exist to make food the world loves.

But we do more than that.

Our company is a place that prioritizes being a force for good, a place to expand learning, explore new perspectives and reimagine new possibilities, every day.

We look for people who want to bring their best — bold thinkers with big hearts who challenge one another and grow together.

Because becoming the undisputed leader in food means surrounding ourselves with people who are hungry for what’s next.​

What will I do?

Looking for an opportunity to become a future sales leader in one of the world’s largest food companies?

General Mills is looking for the leaders of tomorrow to join our Sales Development Program in Fall of 2027.

With the pursuit of putting people first and building a culture of creating, we want to partner with you on your journey every step of the way.

General Mills Canada is one of the largest Consumer Packaged Goods companies in Canada.

We are the leaders in 13 categories with strong brands like Cheerios, Nature Valley, Old El Paso, and Pillsbury.

We serve the world by making food the world loves and treating the world with care.

While we are part of a much larger global organization, we have the autonomy to manage our business and iconic brands in ways that support the needs of Canadian consumers.

We seek out the best minds and provide them with development and the opportunity to lead something big.

The SDA role not only provides a platform for ownership from the get- go, but also serves as a steppingstone to advance your career with various roles (i.e.

Account Management, Category Management, OMNI, Market Strategy & Commercial Capabilities).

Dedicated to the philosophy of promotion from within, the SDA role provides a foundation to explore future leadership opportunities, encouraging growth within Sales, and you can also explore cross-functional opportunities.

We employ an outstanding team of “intrapreneurs” who are valued and empowered to indulge in experimentation and innovative thinking to succeed.

As an SDA, 50% of your week will be dedicated to managing a territory with medium to large format stores.

Embracing an entrepreneurial spirit, this part of the role allows you to build and maintain relationships with key contacts, strategically sell using customer & category insights and flawlessly execute promotions to help grow the General Mills business.
