Retail Marketing Coordinator
- Full-time
Company Description
Kenny U-Pull is proud to give a second life to used vehicles. Our 27 auto recycling locations across Eastern Canada are supported by over 400 employees, all passionate about repurposing used cars and committed to a greener environment for future generations. Since 2008, we have recycled over one million vehicles, and we're just getting started!
At Kenny, we do things differently by offering our customers the opportunity to create their own self-service experience. Customers choose and remove the parts they need themselves for a fraction of the manufacturer's price, in a safe, clean, and environmentally responsible environment.
