We are Chandos

Inclusion, collaboration, innovation and courage.

These values speak to our desire to create places where all people belong, listening and learning from one another in a way that sparks ideas and leads to positive changes in our industry and community. They also demonstrate our commitment to a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture. And, if they resonate with you too, we should talk!

We are 100 percent employee owned and proud to be the first and largest B Corp certified national technical builder in North America, meaning we put our values at the centre of everything we do. 

Continuous improvement is core to our success. Championing innovative and collaborative ways to build is just one example of that. Collaborative construction leads to more efficiency, cost savings, social value, and a much better working experience for everyone.

Every day, our teams are working to build places for people to live, work, learn, serve, and play. But above all, we’re building community. And, we’re looking for like-minded people to join us. Together, we can build a better world.

The Opportunity: Own a Piece of What You Build

Are you handy, organized, and looking for a career where your hard work actually impacts the bottom line? At Chandos, our Tool Technicians are the engine that keeps our project sites running safely and efficiently.

This role is a prime entry-point into our warehouse and logistics operations. We don’t just hire for where you are today - we hire for where you can go tomorrow.

The Ownership Advantage: Chandos is 100% employee-owned. We aren't a publicly traded company, and we don't answer to outside shareholders. We answer to each other.

• Invest in Yourself: Every employee has the opportunity to become an owner by purchasing units in the company.
• Shared Success: When the company has a successful year, the board may approve a distribution to all unit holders. It is a way for you to directly benefit from the company’s growth.
• Entrepreneurial Spirit: Because we are all owners, we treat the gear and the business like it's ours - because it is.

What You’ll Do

As a key member of our tight-knit, three-person warehouse team, you ensure our field crews have the best, safest tools in their hands. Your day-to-day will include:

• Precision Maintenance: Inspect, service, and perform minor repairs on a variety of gear - from drills and grinders to generators and pressure washers.
• Inventory Leadership: Fulfill tool orders from request forms and phone calls, ensuring our sites have exactly what they need, when they need it.
• Safety Stewardship: Conduct incoming/outgoing inspections. At Chandos, safety isn't a checkbox; it's a core value.
• Logistics & Coordination: Manage the flow of tools across warehouse zones and coordinate with external partners for specialized recertifications.
• Workspace Excellence: Help maintain a clean, organized, and highly functional shop environment.

• Experience: 2+ years in tool/shop work or the construction industry. Experience in tool rental is a plus.
• Technical Skill: Comfortable identifying tool wear and performing basic repairs (handles, cords, blades, filters, etc.).
• The "Gear": Familiarity with cordless/corded drills, impact drivers, concrete hammers, grinders, pneumatic nailers, generators, air compressors, and plate compactors.
• Driver’s License: Valid Class 5 license with a clean abstract.
• Physical Requirements: This is a physical role. You must be able to lift heavy objects (up to 80 lbs) for 50 feet, climb ladders, and perform strenuous labour in various conditions.

Why Join Chandos?

• Path to Ownership: Every person at Chandos can become an owner. We have only one class of units because we believe everyone should be treated equally.
• Competitive Rewards: Competitive wages, plus a well-rounded, employer-paid benefits program (health, dental, vision, and EAP).
• Future Security: RRSP matching program and educational assistance for those looking to level up.
• Culture of Connection: Annual salary reviews, leadership conferences, and regular company-wide engagement opportunities.
