• Lead and support your Ops Leads — the Ops Leads run their locations day-to-day; you coach and develop them through regular check-ins, documented one-on-ones, and quarterly reviews, building leaders who operate with increasing independence. You also directly manage the Location Administrators.
• Own safety and compliance — keep every location audit-ready and lead by example on AWSA, WHMIS, TDG, and COR requirements; review every safety incident promptly and visibly champion safe work.
• Hold the facility standard — through monthly site walkthroughs and chem shed audits, work with the Ops Leads are maintaining facility and yard standards, and coordinate maintenance and capital improvement needs.
• Own inventory accuracy — oversee the monthly physical counts your sites complete, reconcile against our inventory system, sign off on adjustments, and hold every location to a real-time accuracy standard.
• Plan for the seasons — prepare seasonal staffing and facility readiness ahead of peak, and align operational capacity with the sales plan alongside your Sales Manager peer.
• Report and improve — provide a weekly operations summary to the Director of Operations and continuously raise the standard across your territory.
• Own financial performance — manage operating budgets and expenses across your territory, monitor cost and margin performance against plan, control facility and maintenance spending, and partner with the Director of Operations on capital planning and forecasting.
• Manage vendors and third parties — oversee relationships with suppliers, contractors, and service providers across your territory, negotiate and manage agreements, hold third parties to safety and performance standards, and ensure work is delivered on time and on budget.

• Minimum 5 years of operational leadership in agricultural retail, bulk chemical or fertilizer handling, or a related industrial facility-management environment.
• Demonstrated people management — performance reviews, conduct, coaching, and development conversations.
• Multi-site management experience, accountable for more than one location at the same time.
• Strong working knowledge of safety and regulatory frameworks (AWSA, TDG, WHMIS); COR program management or audit-preparation experience is a significant asset.
• Comfort with business and inventory systems — ERP or inventory software, spreadsheets, and reporting tools; experience with Tronia is an asset.
• A safety-first leader who is visible, consistent, and uncompromising, and who builds teams through coaching rather than solving every problem personally.

• Certificate or degree in Operations Management, Agriculture, Engineering, or a related field preferred.
• AWSA certification or demonstrated regulatory-compliance experience required.
• Valid Class 5 driver’s licence — regular travel between locations is required.
• Forklift certification and First Aid are assets.
