Original job description
Operations Administrator – Commercial Logistics, Richmond
Location: Richmond, BC
Position Type: Full-Time
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 5:00 am–1:30 pm
Compensation: $44,000-$48,000
Commercial Logistics Inc. is looking for an Operations Administrator to support our Lower Mainland operation.
Commercial Logistics and ContainerWorld are both part of Mullen Group, publicly traded on the TSX.
This is a great fit for someone who is organized, dependable, comfortable working with different computer systems, and enjoys being the person who helps keep the details of a busy operation on track.
About the Role
The Operations Administrator provides day-to-day administrative and customer service support for our Lower Mainland transportation operation.
Your work will involve a combination of operational administration, customer communication, order and system updates, reporting, and delivery documentation. You’ll manage many of your regular responsibilities independently while working with the Fleet Supervisor and Fleet Manager and the broader team.
This isn’t a traditional desk job where every day looks exactly the same. Transportation is a fast-moving environment, and priorities can change throughout the day as deliveries are completed, customers need information, or operational issues arise.
Your day will typically involve:
- Processing and maintaining delivery and transportation documentation
- Entering and updating orders and operational information
- Completing shipment and delivery confirmations
- Communicating delivery updates, delays, and service issues
- Responding to customer and internal operational inquiries
- Preparing recurring reports and customer-specific information
- Reviewing information for accuracy and following up on missing or incomplete details
- Coordinating information between Operations, Drivers, Customer Service, Warehouse, Finance, and other teams
What You Can Expect
- Stable, full-time employment
- A weekday-focused operational environment
- Competitive compensation and benefits
- A role with a mix of independent work and regular interaction with customers and coworkers
- Exposure to transportation, logistics, and operational systems
- A structured environment where accuracy and follow-through matter
- A team-oriented workplace where your work directly supports the daily operation

- Coordinate information between customers and internal operational teams
- Investigate routine delivery and administrative issues and assist with follow-up and resolution
- Assist with operational projects and process improvements
- Provide backup support for related administrative activities as required
Who This Role Is For
You’ll likely be successful in this role if you:
- Are highly organized and comfortable managing several priorities at once
- Pay close attention to detail and take pride in accurate work
- Are comfortable working independently once you’ve learned a process
- Communicate clearly and professionally with both customers and coworkers
- Enjoy solving routine problems and following issues through to completion
- Can adapt when priorities change during the day
- Are comfortable learning and working within multiple computer systems
- Prefer a role where your work has a direct connection to the daily operation
