ABOUT YAMA VANS
Yama Vans is Canada’s premium adventure van manufacturer. Built to endure, designed to inspire. Our work is guided by Japanese design values and North American adventures, with a shared commitment to craftsmanship, efficiency, and living life outside the lines. Our small, hungry, and growing team of 30 move fast, sweat the details, and always enjoy the ride. Our vans make the journey as memorable as the destination and serve as basecamps for people who want to upgrade their access to the outdoors.

THE ROLE
The Office Manager is the administrative backbone of Yama Vans. You'll own office administration, day-to-day finance data entry, and executive support — keeping the business running and the team focused on what only they can do. You proactively identify gaps and loose ends and take action to solve them efficiently and effectively.

Reports directly to the CEO. Full time, on-site in Calgary.

YOUR FOUR ACCOUNTABILITIES

Office administration is organized and current. Vendors, subscriptions, insurance, legal admin, HR records, onboarding, and people admin are maintained to standard and nothing falls through the cracks.

The leadership team is protected from administrative drag, primarily the CEO. You actively seek opportunities to remove tasks from leadership’s plates.

Finance data entry and AP/AR processing is accurate and on time. Invoices and receipts are posted, the AP ledger is maintained, the weekly AP run is prepared, and AR is monitored across bank and POS system.

The first impression of Yama is excellent. Walk-in reception, inbound calls, helpdesk, and email triage are handled warmly and professionally.
