About Stark Lumber

Stark Lumber has served the Niagara Region since 1949. We're a locally owned supplier specializing in lumber, plywood, roof trusses, and engineered wood products, with in-house design services that support contractors and builders on complex projects. Our customers know us by name, and we know them. If you like a fast-paced environment, real trade knowledge, and being part of a tight crew that gets things done, you'll fit in well here.

This is a hands-on counter position: you won't just enter orders, you'll also help pull and stage customer orders in the yard. That means you'll split your time between customer service, order entry, and physically preparing pickup orders so they go out accurately and on time

What success looks like

  • Contractors call in, walk in, or email an order and you handle it smoothly.
  • Quotes and orders are accurate (items, quantities, pricing, pickup/delivery details).
  • Yard pulls are correct and complete.
  • You communicate early when information is missing or stock is uncertain (i.e. no surprises).
  • Customers ask for you by name because you're responsive, helpful, and reliable.

Key responsibilities

  • Serve customers at the counter, by phone, and email - contractors, builders, and homeowners.
  • Pull customer orders for pickup (lumber, sheet goods, hardware, etc.).
  • Recommend the right products (materials, quantities, smart substitutions) and suggest value-adds.
  • Work with the team to coordinate logistics - special orders, deliveries, pickups, and staging.
  • Solve problems fast—shortages, backorders, damaged material, site issues.
  • Keep details tight—organized notes, clear communication, follow-through.

Qualifications

  • Experience in customer-facing sales or service (construction/building materials experience is a bonus, not a requirement)
  • Strong communicator—clear, friendly, and good at asking the right questions
  • Ability to multitask – able to start and stop tasks on a dime and stay on track
  • Detail-oriented—you catch the small stuff (quantities, specs, delivery instructions)
  • Eager to learn product knowledge and build expertise over time
  • Comfortable with basics: email, order entry systems, phones

  • Casual dress
