Work environment
The Jasper Field Unit operates a diverse fleet and equipment portfolio that supports visitor services, asset maintenance, operations, and emergency response. The portfolio includes vehicles, equipment, and related assets that need reliable records, clear maintenance and inspection tracking, defensible replacement planning and practical day-to-day coordination.
This position is one of the builder roles in a new Facilities and Fleet team. The Field Unit needs a more deliberate system for utilization analysis, fleet reduction and rationalization, electrification planning, vehicle sharing or pooling, replacement planning, disposal, maintenance coordination, vendor coordination and compliance reporting.
The work combines analysis, coordination, inspections, procurement, and field support. Some days will involve spreadsheets, data clean-up, utilization reviews, records reconciliation and recommendations. Other days will involve meeting operational users, checking assets, coordinating vendors, supporting maintenance contracts, confirming site readiness, documenting deficiencies or helping move a vehicle or equipment issue through to resolution.
This is a strong fit for someone who can bring order to a complex fleet environment, build useful tracking systems, ask practical questions, follow through on details and help the Field Unit make fleet and equipment decisions that are service-focused, cost-conscious and defensible.
