Original job description
About Viking Reinforcing
Viking Reinforcing is a family-run reinforcing steel fabricator and installer serving Vancouver Island and coastal BC since 2007. We are the highest-certified rebar fabricator in Canada (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, WorkSafeBC COR), with a secured multi-year project book for leading general contractors, a fully automated fabrication line arriving in 2027, and a team of roughly 100 including our field crews. If you want to grow with a company that is genuinely scaling, this is the seat.
About the Role
The Operations Support Specialist is the connective tissue of our operations office: supporting estimating, logistics, inventory and project administration, keeping information moving between departments, and providing trained backup coverage across key operational functions so nothing stalls when someone is away. You will report to the Director of Operations and touch nearly every part of how a rebar project moves from award to final delivery.
What You Will Do
- Support daily operations across estimating, logistics, inventory and project administration, and help projects move cleanly from award through completion.
- Cross-train on key operational functions, including tag and aSa processing, to provide seamless coverage during absences and peak periods.
- Support contract administration: change orders, extras, subcontractor compliance documents, schedules, quantities and material requirements.
- Help plan steel orders, track inbound material, and flag timing or quantity gaps early.
- Support bids and tenders: documentation, tracking, and records.
- Keep operational data current in our systems (aSa/HQ, CRM) and contribute to our ISO and COR management systems.
What You Bring
- Experience in construction operations, project coordination, logistics, or a related administrative-operations role; rebar or structural trades exposure is a strong asset.
- Organized, systems-minded, and comfortable learning multiple functions; you like being the person who can cover anything.
- Clear professional communication and sound judgment with confidential information.
Pay and Perks
- Extended health benefits and employer-matched Group RRSP.
- Stable, year-round office-based work at our Parksville facility, with yard and site involvement.
- Real growth path in a company that is doubling its production capacity.
