Operations Coordinator — Projects, Service & Estimating. Full time Hudson Entry & Automation is a construction and service company. We design, install, service, and maintain the systems that let people and vehicles in — and keep the wrong ones out. Automated gates: cantilever slide, swing, bi-fold, barrier arms, operators, loops, photo eyes, safety edges. Commercial pedestrian doors, hollow metal frames, hardware, closers, and life-safety openings. Access control, readers, keypads, electrified hardware, intercoms, and gate/door integration. Planned maintenance and emergency repair. Concrete, steel, conduit, motors, controls, and hardware — not a call centre with a construction logo on it. We protect people, property, and livelihoods. If you can keep a trade operation moving when the day gets loud — and you already understand construction well enough that we are not teaching you what a site is — keep reading. This is not a generic office coordinator job. You are air traffic control for a specialty construction and service company. A plant calls: the sliding gate is dead, and trucks are stacked at the fence. A contractor emails a door schedule and wants a quote tomorrow. A technician is on a ladder, needs a part, and the customer is standing there. A project is waiting on a drawing clarification, a lead time, and a crew day. You turn that chaos into a scheduled job, a scoped quote, and a clean invoice, and a customer who does not have to chase anyone. This is a project-first operations seat. Most of the time, you are moving jobs from quote to schedule to install to closeout: scope, paperwork, materials, customer updates, and the hand‐offs that keep a project from stalling. When a quote needs to get out, you help build it. "The work in front of the customer is the job. Project coordination:



~ You keep installs moving from booked to done: scope, drawings, materials, crew days, customer updates, documentation, and handoffs. You watch lead times, catch missing hardware or access pieces before the site does, and keep the project from stalling between office and field. When a quote needs to go out, you help build it. Price labour, materials, travel, and reality. You do not need to arrive as a senior estimator. You do need to recognize a hollow metal frame, an operator, a reader, a loop, a closer, and a dock leveller — and know when a quote is missing something that will blow up on site. Help schedule and dispatch technicians across gates, overhead doors, hardware, access, and locksmithing. Adjust when a site runs long, a part is late, or an emergency jumps the queue. A job is not finished because someone left the site. Hold the line on digital documentation. If the field system is messy, everything downstream gets expensive. This is a high‐performance team, not an unconditional family. Have worked in construction, specialty trades, or a closely related field — project coordination, estimating support, or inside operations, not only retail, warehousing, or general admin. Can read a drawing, a door schedule, a site photo, or a contractor email and see the real scope. Stay calm when a project, a parts delay, a customer, and a service backup request all land at once.



Take the work seriously and treat people properly — customers and field techs included. Own the outcome: if something slips, you say so, fix it, and change the system so it does not slip twice. Will jump from a project file to a quote to the service board without protecting a lane. Do not know construction well enough to follow a technical conversation. Talk down to field staff. You will run a cloud‐based field management system for projects, scheduling, quoting, and invoicing, plus digital work orders, drawings, modern internal comms, and our internal AI‐powered intranet.

Salary:
$65,000–$85,000, commensurate with construction/trade and project experience. Medical, dental, vision, life and disability benefits. Quarterly reviews and a real path into project management, estimating, service management, or operations. Company events and on‐site parking. Strongest fit: project coordination, estimating support, or inside operations in doors, gates, hardware, access control, electrical, mechanical, overhead doors, locksmithing, or a related trade. You can hold a technical conversation about site work without freezing. Motors, hardware, openings, access devices, concrete and steel as they show up on our jobs — you do not need to be the technician. Exceptional organization, written communication, and customer service. Strong with spreadsheets, email, and up-to-date office software; willing to master our field system. Clean criminal record check (completed at the appropriate stage of hiring). Strong assets: Quoting from drawings or door schedules, project documentation, AutoCAD, vendor and parts coordination, field‐service software, and direct experience with commercial doors, gates, operato
