Job Description

Executive Officer - Building Materials and Lumber

Location : Remote within Alberta

Employment Type : Full-Time, Permanent (40 hours / week)

Travel : Approximately 30–40 nights per year within Alberta

Our client is a well-established, province-wide industry association representing manufacturers and stakeholders within the structural building components sector. They play a critical role in advocacy, regulatory engagement, industry education, and the development of best practices across Alberta.

They are currently seeking an Executive Officer - Building Materials and Lumber to serve as the Association’s primary operational and administrative leader. This is a unique opportunity for a highly autonomous professional who enjoys variety, responsibility, and meaningful work that directly impacts an entire sector.

About the Role Reporting to the Board of Directors, the Executive Officer will oversee the day-to-day operations of the Association, including governance, financial administration, member engagement, and government relations. This role is ideal for someone who is self-directed, organized, comfortable working independently, and confident representing an industry with professionalism and credibility.

This is not a corporate environment—it is best suited to someone who enjoys ownership, flexibility, and being the central point of coordination.

  • Exposure to government relations, advocacy, or regulatory environments
  • Strong organizational and financial administration skills
  • Confident communicator and presenter
  • Comfortable working independently and managing competing priorities
  • Professional, diplomatic, and member-focused
  • Construction, manufacturing, or building materials industry exposure (preferred)
  • Understanding of not-for-profit governance is an asset
  • Willingness to travel within Alberta
  • Why This Opportunity

  • Rare leadership role within a respected provincial association
  • High level of autonomy and ownership
  • Direct influence on industry policy and standards
  • Remote flexibility within Alberta
  • Long-term stability
