POSITION OVERVIEW

As a Continuous Improvement Trainer, you will help implement the Program for Industry Efficiency (PIE) with industry members. You will mainly engage with the province’s forestry contractors (Silviculture, Road Construction, Harvesting & Trucking). Reporting to the Operations Manager, you will work with the PIE program coach to develop your skills and lead improvement projects independently in the sector.

You will initially participate in projects with the PIE coach to learn strategies so you can progress to co-lead and ultimately lead industry improvement projects.

  • Promote engagement with process owner, team and project.
  • Provide clear updates to the FORSEC team and seek support and coaching as needed.
  • Perform other relevant duties where required in a team environment.


QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE:

The ideal candidate will have a combination of relevant education and work experience. They must have a minimum college diploma or a bachelor’s degree in administration, business, sciences, or other relevant field. The ideal candidate will have 3+ years of comparable project management, facilitation, and problem-solving experience.


ESSENTIAL ATTRIBUTES:

  • A curious learner who enjoys keeping up with new industry trends and technology.
  • Keen attention to detail with a strong sense of initiative and follow-through.
  • Ability to think on their feet, identify and work through possible conflicts.
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to see and work with different perspectives.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to convey complex ideas clearly and effectively to diverse audiences.
  • Ability to adapt to changing priorities, work effectively under pressure, and thrive in a dynamic and fast-paced environment
  • Demonstrate proven experience building relationships with a similar audience.
  • Demonstrate proven organizational, planning, prioritizing, and time management skills.
  • A self-starter who exercises good judgment and decision-making.
  • Proficiency with computer software applications, specifically Microsoft Office 365 Suite
  • Forestry industry knowledge is an asset.
  • Familiarity with workforce development and the labour market is considered an asset.
  • Familiarity with indigenous perspectives is an asset.
  • Genuine interest in and commitment to the forestry sector and its role in environmental stewardship and sustainability.
