Who We Are

We’re a team that puts customers first, invests in our people, and takes pride in being part of the local community. Whether you’re just starting out in your career or looking for a role where you can grow, we’d love to meet you.

Hands-on learning and product knowledge training
Real opportunities to grow and advance within the company
Employee discount on retail products after the first three months
Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP) to support your well-being and that of your family
A team culture built on three core values: Customers First, Inspired People, and Community Connection

About the Role

As a Lumber Yard Associate, you’ll be the friendly face our customers count on from the moment they pull into the moment they drive away. You’ll help them find exactly what they need, load up their vehicles, and keep our yard running smoothly. This is an active, outdoor role, and no two days are the same.

You’re generally the first and last point of contact for our customers, so your attitude and energy make a real difference. You’ll also work closely with the rest of the yard and store team to make sure everything runs like clockwork.

Approaching and interacting with any customers within 15 feet of you
Helping customers find products and sharing product knowledge, including being able to identify and differentiate lumber species, grades, dimensions, and common building materials
Using our customer service approach – Greet, Qualify, Recommend, and Close – to understand each customer’s project and suggest the right products (and any helpful add-ons)
Loading products into customers’ vehicles
Completing daily yard upkeep: culling and flat-stacking lumber, labelling products and prices, maintaining pallets, and keeping stock organized
Keeping the yard clean, safe, and welcoming for both customers and teammates
Collaborating with the store team to communicate product availability, flag stock issues, and ensure a seamless customer experience from yard to checkout
Always working in compliance with WorkSafeBC Standards
Staying in the loop on current promotions and product availability
Completing opening and closing duties for the yard

What We’re Looking For

No experience in lumber or construction? No problem, we’ll teach you what you need to know! Here’s what will set you up for success:

A passion for customer service and a go-above-and-beyond attitude
Curiosity and willingness to build product knowledge
Willingness to learn about products and a genuine curiosity about what customers are building
A collaborative, team-first mindset
Excellent listening, communication, and interpersonal skills
Detail oriented with a strong commitment to safe work practices
Ability to lift at least 50 pounds
Comfortable working in all types of weather conditions
Availability to work a flexible schedule, including weekends and holidays
Forklift certification or previous forklift experience is an asset
Previous experience in lumber, construction, or retail is an asset

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and come be part of a team that’s proud of where they work and who they serve.
