Financial Management: Maintain full P&L accountability, including annual budgeting, forecasting, cost control and performance against financial targets. Identify productivity, cost-saving and business improvement opportunities and provide recommendations to senior leadership.
Reporting & Collaboration: Provide accurate operational and financial reporting and collaborate with Safety, Fleet, Maintenance, HR, Finance and Customer Service to achieve business objectives.

Demonstrated success leading large operational teams, including supervisors and frontline employees; unionized experience strongly preferred.
Proven full P&L, budgeting, forecasting and cost-management experience.
Experience managing municipal relationships, customer contracts and service commitments.
Strong understanding of route optimization, fleet utilization, labour productivity, safety and commercial vehicle compliance.
Strategic planning, problem-solving and data-driven decision-making capabilities, with the ability to apply technology and automation to operational challenges.
Experience with fleet-management, route-management, telematics or reporting systems is an asset.
Post-secondary education in business, operations, transportation or a related discipline is preferred; equivalent experience will be considered.
Valid BC driver’s licence required. Class 1 licence, or ability to obtain one, is an asset.
