About Maddison Construction Limited

Maddison Construction Limited (MCL) is a locally owned construction company serving the National Capital Region. We specialize in general contracting, structural restoration and full building envelope work across the industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) and multi-unit residential sectors. Our work is grounded in safety, quality, efficiency and clear communication.

The Role

Our crews should never wait on the shop. That's this job. You run the tools, fleet, equipment, consumables and logistics that keep our general contracting, restoration and building envelope crews moving. Every shop request comes through you, every asset is tracked, the fleet stays legal and maintained, and the shop, yard and fuel station meet our safety standard every day.

A lot of companies call this seat shop foreman. Ours carries a budget, a fleet and a direct report, so the title is Equipment and Logistics Manager. You report to the Director of Operations and supervise the Driver/Shop Assistant. The role is based at our shop and yard at 74 Bentley Avenue, Monday to Friday, with an early start (the shop opens at 6:30 am). Target start is mid-January 2027, with a two-month handover from the current manager.

Responsibilities

Requests and dispatch

- Triage and fulfil every Corfix shop request (consumables, team help, vehicles and equipment). Keep the shop inbox as the channel of record and confirm each day's requests by a set time.
- Own the MCL Fleet Calendar, the driver schedule in QuickBooks Time, and all key and fuel-card issue. Check every driver against the Authorized Drivers Schedule before keys go out.
- Schedule and supervise the Driver/Shop Assistant: mobilizations, deliveries, pickups and waste runs, with the next day's schedule out by 2:00 pm.

- Keep the Vehicle and Equipment Register current. Run preventive maintenance,



annual safety inspections, MTO renewals and CVOR compliance.

- Keep spend inside the monthly shop budget. Report budget against actual and the shop KPIs to the Director of Operations by the 5th business day of each month.
