Kingma Lumber is a specialty woodworking and lumber shop in Edmonton serving hobbyist woodworkers, cabinet shops, furniture makers, and professional builders. We focus on high-quality hardwoods, sheet goods, and woodworking materials, and we run a clean, organized, and friendly shop where customers can plan and build great projects.

Position Overview:

We are hiring a Woodworking Shop Sales Associate who loves wood, tools, and shop talk. If you enjoy helping people pick the right material for their next build, stacking lumber, and keeping a tidy, efficient store, this is the role for you. This is an in-person, full-time position at our Edmonton shop.

What You'll Do:

- Greet woodworkers, DIYers, and contractors and help them choose the right lumber, hardwoods, plywood, and supplies for their projects.

- Advise on species, grades, dimensions, and quantities (BDFT) to fit the customer's project and budget.

- Pull orders, measure and cut/bundle lumber, and help customers safely load material into their vehicles.

- Keep the shop and yard organized: restock racks, face products, sweep, and maintain a clean, safe work area.

- Operate our POS system to process sales, print labels, and handle basic computer tasks.

- Help with inventory counts, tagging, and restocking to keep our stock numbers accurate.

- Represent Kingma Lumber's standard for friendly, knowledgeable service on every interaction.

Who This Is Perfect For:

- You enjoy woodworking, carpentry, cabinetmaking, or building things - as a hobby or a trade.





- You're comfortable on your feet and able to lift and move lumber and sheet goods throughout the day.

- You take pride in an organized, clean shop.

- You're friendly and patient with customers who are new to woodworking and need guidance.

- You're reliable, punctual, and a good teammate in a small, tight-knit crew.

Requirements:

- Strong communication skills and a customer-first attitude.

- Physically capable of lifting and moving lumber and building materials safely.

- Comfortable using a computer and POS system; willing to learn our processes.

- Basic knowledge of wood species, lumber dimensions, and common woodworking projects is a solid asset.

- Previous experience in a lumber yard, hardware store, woodworking shop, or cabinet shop is a plus but not required if you have genuine woodworking interest.

What We Offer:

- CA$18.00 - CA$26.00 per hour, depending on experience.

- Generous employee discounts on lumber and woodworking materials.

- Casual dress and a hands-on, practical work environment.

- On-site parking and paid time off.
