Crane Operator
About The Position
As a Class 3 Driver and Mobile Crane Operator, you’ll be an essential part of our delivery team by getting the right products to job sites safely, on time, and with the kind of professionalism our customers count on. Every delivery is a chance to represent our team well and build lasting relationships with the contractors and builders we serve. The role requires someone who can work confidently and independently on the road and can assess site conditions, solve problems on the fly, and make good judgement calls without always having someone to check in with. You’ll also be a key link between our customers and the yard team, so clear communication in both directions matters. This is an active, hands-on role that combines driving with crane operation, so a strong commitment to safety and attention to detail are a must.

- Valid BC Class 3 Driver’s License with a clean driver’s abstract
- Mobile crane operator certification (or equivalent – please specify in your application)
- Proven experience operating a mobile crane safely in a job site environment
- Strong knowledge of load securement practices and transportation regulations
- Confident, self-directed problem solver who is comfortable making good decisions independently when situations on the road don’t go as planned
