Experience: 5+ Years
Compensation: $75,000–$95,000 to start, with flexibility for the right candidate
Additional compensation and benefits include milestone pay increases, year-end bonuses, RRSP matching, a full benefits package, and seafood discounts.
We are seeking a highly motivated, hands-on Assistant Operations Manager to join a well-established seafood processing and logistics operation in British Columbia’s wild seafood industry.
This opportunity is particularly suited to an experienced fishing professional, fisherman, deckhand, or commercial vessel crew member who is ready to transition from working on the water into an operations leadership role.

Key Responsibilities:
• Support day-to-day plant and operational activities
• Coordinate fishing vessels, fleet activities, freight, and logistics
• Work directly with fishermen, warehouse teams, and internal operations staff
• Assist with dock and warehouse operations
• Resolve real-time operational and logistical issues
• Help ensure smooth coordination between vessels, logistics, and plant operations
• Build and maintain strong relationships with fishing professionals and internal teams
• Anticipate operational needs and changing priorities
Required Qualifications:
• 5+ years of relevant experience
• Direct, hands-on experience working aboard commercial fishing vessels is required
• Background as a fisherman, deckhand, vessel crew member, or similar fishing professional
• Experience in logistics, operations, or supply chain
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
• High level of initiative, accountability, and self-motivation
• Ability to work independently and anticipate operational needs
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment
• Flexible, adaptable, and willing to work hands-on
• Forklift experience or willingness to obtain certification
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel
Important: Candidates must have direct commercial fishing vessel experience to be considered.
Interested candidates are encouraged to apply with an updated resume highlighting their commercial fishing and operations experience.
