- Balance hands-on physical work with leadership, customer service, sales, and operational responsibilities

What We’re Looking For:

- 1–2+ years of leadership, supervisory, sales, customer service, or operations experience

- Previous experience as a Team Lead, Shift Lead, Supervisor, Assistant Manager, or similar role is highly valued

- Experience in retail, landscaping, food service, hospitality, construction, delivery, or other fast-paced environments is an asset

- Ability to multitask and effectively handle competing priorities while maintaining a positive customer and team experience

- Strong communication and problem-solving skills

- A results-driven, team-oriented mindset

- Ability to lead by example and stay productive in a physically demanding environment

- Ability to consistently lift 50+ lbs

- Valid Class 5 driver's licence and clean 3-year driving record

- Must be 19+

Why This Is a Great Entry-Level Management Opportunity:
This role is designed for someone who is ready to **grow beyond a traditional frontline position**.

You’ll gain hands-on experience in:

- Team leadership and coaching

- Sales and estimating

- Customer service

- Route and operations management

- Performance management

- Revenue and productivity tracking

- Real-time decision-making and problem-solving

As you develop your skills and demonstrate strong performance, there are opportunities to take on **greater responsibility and advance within the company**.
