Salary Range: $42,000.00 To $44,000.00 Annually

Our Davis Drive location in Newmarket is one of our most multifaceted sites. Alongside self-storage, it operates as a Penske Truck Rental dealer and a Purolator Shipping Centre, and all three lines of business contribute to the site’s success. We’re looking for an Assistant Manager who is ready to take real ownership and to lead the team with confidence when the Site Manager is away.

Storage rentals are the heart of our business, and driving storage sales will be your top priority.
