Or perhaps for someone who has been wanting to move to the Chilliwack area but who wants to get a great new job in the region first
This is a full-time in-office role. That said, the company offers a high level of trust and flexibility. It’s an ideal environment for someone who is self-motivated, organized, diligent, and who holds themselves and their team accountable without the need for any micromanagement.
