• Lead or assist with physical inventory counts as required.
• Investigate inventory discrepancies and address damaged, unidentified, misplaced, or incorrectly labelled material.
• Ensure material movements affecting inventory are communicated to the Front Office.

• Coordinate equipment maintenance and repair needs with the Millwright.
• Support winter salt operations as required.
• Take initiative in identifying opportunities to improve yard safety, organization, efficiency, and customer service.
