Proficiency in policy and procedure, you excel at goal setting, planning, and prioritization, allowing you to lead without formal authority.

Your appreciation for variety will come in handy, as the only thing that stays consistent about this woodproducts based role, is that it's a 'whittle' bit unpredictable

Bring your expertise in at least ONE of these specified domains, allowing us to build off your foundation while developing the others:

  • Environmental Compliance
  • Safety
  • Sustainability
  • Continuous Improvement

For this role come equipped with:

  • Lean Six-Sigma
  • Excellent adaptability skills
  • Environmental Science, Engineering, Industrial Management, or a related discipline
  • Some knowledge of regulatory bodies (environmental and safety)


In a perfect world, you have a background in operational safety, environmental compliance, energy management, site maintenance, and/or process improvement with a post-secondary education and professional certification in areas such as environmental management, safety, or quality management.

You also have previous industrial experience.
