Assist with white wood inventory levels planning and scheduling at each treating plant (min/max) to meet production requirements; work with plant managers, the Senior Director, and suppliers to maintain target inventory
Input stock transfer orders, white wood purchase orders, and assist with customs and border paperwork for white wood inventory originating at a treating plant
Identify gaps between white wood inventory and plant production schedules; notify stakeholders, including the Regional Inventory Manager, of excess inventory and shortages
Collaborate with Transportation to plan and coordinate movements, maximize transportation opportunities, and manage white wood railcar pool utilization and forecasted schedules

Cruise land to determine volume, size, and quality of timber stands
Assess timber sales from Ontario sales and MNR rules

Purchase and balance raw materials inventory to meet required production levels
Monitor barkie yields to ensure cost efficiency and budget targets are met
Maintain and develop new relationships with suppliers of barkies and fibre
Arrange transportation of purchases as needed
Ensure proper quantity and quality of materials received at locations
Supervise manufacturing of barkie poles for quality control and direct sizes toward company needs
Provide day-to-day contact with and supervision of contractors and suppliers
Work closely with Woodlands Manager(s) on managing woodlands goals and planning all activities to meet legal and financial objectives
Visit all pole potential areas on Crown land and evaluate pole potential, including volume estimation in standing timber
Follow and regularly visit all active pole harvesting sectors on Crown land during operation time
Collaborate with coworkers, log buyers, accounting, contractors, consultants, and members of the public
Communicate regularly with staff to ensure personnel, reporting, organizational, and system requirements are raised and addressed with a goal of continuous improvement
Assist in the preparation of fibre supply forecasts, including monthly estimates of pole volume for each individual job
Assist in the preparation of budgets, accruals, and forecasts; manage spending to achieve goals

Creative problem-solving mindset
