Position Summary

Keep every load and project moving.

  • Adaptable – responds quickly and practically when schedules or requirements change
  • Clear communicator – provides drivers and internal teams with accurate, timely information
  • Accountable – follows through, checks progress, and takes ownership of commitments
  • Detail-driven – notices important information in permits, directions, schedules, and site instructions
  • Problem-solver – works through transportation and scheduling challenges to find practical solutions
  • Team-oriented – understands that successful deliveries depend on coordination across departments

Requirements

  • Proficiency with Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and Word
  • Strong organizational and time-management skills
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage competing priorities and make timely adjustments
  • Available to work Monday to Friday, typically 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. or until the day’s work is complete, with earlier starts, later finishes, overtime, and occasional Saturdays depending on workload.
  • Must be local or willing to relocate to the Blackfalds area
  • Eligible to work in Canada
