Job Overview
Ivor Forest Products Ltd. is a mid-sized wood products manufacturer based in BC. This position is based at our head office in West Kelowna — the administrative and commercial hub of the business, separate from our manufacturing operations. It is a hands-on support role working alongside a small, close-knit team of three individuals who handle the company's sales, marketing, accounting, and finance activities.
We're looking for an organized, dependable administrator who enjoys keeping an office running smoothly, is comfortable on the phone and in person, and can move confidently between bookkeeping software, spreadsheets, and word processing. This is an excellent fit for someone who takes pride in accuracy, discretion, and being the person the team can rely on to get things done.
Because we're a small office, this role offers unusual variety and reach. Rather than being boxed into a single function, you'll get exposure to sales, marketing, accounting, and finance, and everyone here pitches in across a range of tasks. It's a great opportunity to broaden your skills and understand how the whole business fits together.
