Rental Specialist

Be the reason every customer leaves with confidence and comes back.

Ancaster, Ontario, Canada | Store-Based Role

OnSite Rentals is a growing tool and equipment rental company committed to putting the right equipment in the hands of the people who build, fix, and create — and to building the kind of team that makes that possible every single day. We are a people-first organization, and that means the experience we deliver to our customers starts with the experience we create for our team.

As a Rental Specialist, you are the face of our operation. You are on the front line of the customer experience — helping customers choose the right equipment, getting rentals out the door efficiently, and making sure every piece of equipment is clean, safe, and rental-ready.
