COMPANY OVERVIEW:
Woodland Mills was founded by two friends who shared a love for solving mechanical problems from a young age. As landowners, they were unable to find well-built, affordable forestry equipment, so they decided to engineer it themselves. From the moment they established Woodland Mills in 2009, the company’s mission was clear: to offer robust, high-performance products at a reasonable price, while eliminating unnecessary intermediate costs by selling directly to customers.
Woodland Mills has become globally recognized as a leader in affordable forestry equipment, with a full line of portable sawmills, woodchippers, stump grinders, log arches and trailers. The company is headquartered in Ontario, Canada, with a 100,000 square foot warehousing and distribution network that extends throughout North America.
Woodland Mills products are trusted by acreage owners, hobby farmers, woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts. That loyal customer base continues to deliver industry-leading ratings, thanks to a solid commitment to quality, exceptional customer care and technical support. The co-owners remain actively involved in Woodland Mills, driving innovation and ensuring every product upholds their commitment to practical innovation and lasting value.
POSITION OVERVIEW
Are you passionate about machinery and hands-on work? We’re looking for a mechanically inclined and reliable individual to join our team in a part-time capacity (10-20 hours/week), reporting to the Operations Manager. If you have experience working with heavy equipment, machinery, or automotive repair, you’ll find your skills highly transferable to our industry. While direct experience with forestry equipment is an asset, it’s not expected—we value your mechanical know-how and willingness to learn.
In this role, you’ll contribute to the assembly of new forestry equipment and the assessment and repair of existing products. You’ll also play a key role in maintaining our facility, including tasks like general upkeep, light building projects (e.g., shelves or racking), and ensuring cleanliness and organization throughout the warehouse and office.
You must be friendly, professional, and a team player. A commitment to safety, quality, and efficiency is essential.
QUALIFICATIONS AND EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS:

· Excellent organizational skills with the ability to prioritize and multitask in a fast-paced environment.
· Clear and professional communication skills to support coordination across departments and with customers or vendors.
· Build forestry equipment for display in the showroom and for customer orders.
