Nicholas Ruest

I specialize in creating and maintaining relationships and partnerships between major corporations and UofT's Rotman MBA Program. Now I'm ready to go full force into the sustainability field with my knowledge acquired from some of the world's top experts in the field.

I've been in Management for all but 6 months of my 12-year career. I started as a General Manager at a property management firm in Ottawa called Controlex. I've had several small marketing businesses. I've led Sales teams and managed relationships with over 80 dealerships as a Sales Director in the non-prime automotive lending industry.

My combination of Human Rights, Equity, and Inclusion advocacy and Sales + hustle culture makes me a one-of-a-kind hire. I also have analytical and research skills in addition to the ability to work well as part of a team.
