Job Description

Forklift Operator – Join a Leader in Timber Construction

Step into a role where your skills truly matter. We’re a global leader in timber and hybrid‑timber construction, and we’re looking for a Forklift Operator to support our busy wood fabrication yard. If you enjoy hands‑on work, operating heavy equipment, and being part of a high‑performing team, this is an opportunity to grow your career in a thriving industry.

What You’ll Do

  • Operate a sit‑down counterbalance forklift to move materials throughout the yard
  • Load and unload 2–3 trucks per day , mainly on shipping days
  • Work outdoors in all weather (we provide rain gear)
  • Split your time between 60% forklift operation and 40% general material handling
  • Lift up to 50 lbs as part of daily tasks

What You Bring

  • Valid WCB‑approved forklift certification
  • 6+ months of industrial forklift experience , specifically with sit‑down counterbalance equipment
  • Ability to lift 50 lbs comfortably
  • Experience with production, warehouse shipping, or material handling
  • Bonus Skills

  • Experience with 30K lb Combi Lift , 9K sit‑down forklift , or 4K sit‑down forklift
  • A proactive, safety‑first mindset
  • A positive attitude and willingness to support the team
  • Why You’ll Love Working With Us

  • Join one of the top timber construction companies worldwide
  • Work on unique, high‑profile projects in a growing industry
  • Career advancement opportunities into Lead Hand or Supervisory roles
  • Support for carpentry education and skill development
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and life insurance
  • RRSP contribution plan
  • Company events, team‑building activities, and a strong workplace culture
  • Opportunities to travel to job sites , with additional compensation and support
  • Your Work Environment

    Our wood fabrication shop is a fast‑paced, collaborative environment with about 50 team members on site. You’ll spend most of your time outdoors in the yard, so comfort working in the elements is essential. When not on the forklift, you’ll help with tasks such as :

  • Using nail guns
  • Cutting wood to size
  • Organizing materials and maintaining a clean workspace
  • Shift : Monday to Thursday, 4 : 30 pm – 3 : 00 am (10‑hour shifts)

    If you’re looking for a role where you can grow, contribute, and be part of something big, we’d love to hear from you. Ready to take the next step in your career?
