With an expanding footprint across Canada and the U.S., we’re scaling quickly and looking for mission-driven talent to help accelerate our growth.

Role Purpose

The VP of Logistics & Operations is a key executive role responsible for the seamless execution of our business fulfillment and customer satisfaction cycle.
