Job description

At Jacobs, we're challenging today to reinvent tomorrow by solving the world's most critical problems for thriving cities, resilient environments, mission-critical outcomes, operational advancement, scientific discovery and cutting-edge manufacturing, turning abstract ideas into realities that transform the world for good.

Your impact

At Jacobs, we’re helping solve some of the world’s most complex environmental challenges and cleaning up communities, protecting natural resources, and supporting sustainable outcomes. Behind every successful field project is a reliable equipment program, and that’s where you come in.

As a Field Equipment Coordinator, you will play a key role in supporting our field teams by managing, maintaining, and coordinating equipment used on projects across Canada.

Based out of our Burnaby warehouse, this is a hands‑on role that’s ideal for someone early in their career who enjoys working with equipment, staying organized, and supporting teams in the field. You’ll work independently on‑site, focusing on providing, maintaining, shipping, and receiving equipment for Jacobs employees and subcontractors while being backed by a collaborative Project Services team located in Calgary and other Jacobs offices across Canada.

Key Responsibilities include

• Respond to equipment requests, often requiring quick turnarounds
• Troubleshoot equipment issues and coordinate repairs or replacements
• Maintain high standards of customer service and safety

You will be responsible for maintaining high standards of customer service and handling requests by phone and email that often require quick turnarounds. Working with other members of our team, you will quickly learn the shipping and receiving processes of different delivery/shipping companies. If you’re up for the challenge, we’ve been looking for someone just like you. Join our team and help us lay the foundation for human progress.

This is a 6-month contract position, with the potential for extension or transition to a full‑time role based on business needs and performance.

This role is primarily in-person and warehouse-based. You will work independently at times, with support from a distributed team. Jacobs supports flexible and hybrid work where feasible while recognizing the in-person requirements essential to equipment operations.

Here's what you'll need

• High School Diploma
• Valid Driver’s License
• Work experience, certification or degree related to inventory management
• Experience using digital technology (iOS/Android devices, GNSS receivers)
• Experience with water quality and field equipment (e.g., turbidity meters, sondes, Swoffer meters, electrofishers)
