Company Description At Chit Chats Express, our mission is to empower Canadian entrepreneurs by making shipping simpler, more accessible, and more affordable. As a fast-growing, entrepreneurial company, we are proud to help businesses of all sizes reach customers around the world with confidence. As e-commerce continues to eliminate borders, we believe Canadian entrepreneurs deserve a shipping partner that helps them compete globally without unnecessary complexity or high barriers to entry.

Our goal is to create a seamless, borderless shipping experience that supports growth, opportunity, and long-term success for businesses across Canada. If you are mission-driven, growth-oriented, and thrive in a collaborative environment, we’d love to hear from you.

As a Chit Chats Branch Lead, you are responsible for all day-to-day operations of your assigned branch. You ensure your team delivers a delightful, low-cost and easy-to-use service to clients while meeting all compliance expectations. You train and coach your team to be cohesive, healthy and engaged.

You start each day by getting together with your team to review new communications, workflows and goals. You lead by example and guide your team to assist clients to find the right solutions for their shipping challenges. You work cohesively with our Client Support, Compliance and Returns teams when troubleshooting client issues, and you work hard to exceed your allocated daily target to keep above your monthly trend.

You dedicate part of your day to working alongside your team, merchandising products and signage to uplift the store's visual appearance and communication. At the end of the day, you ensure your team delivers an end-of-day report, highlighting the key daily numbers and creating an action plan for the following day based on your weekly plan. You work primarily out of our Port Coquitlam (BC).
