Job description

Medicine Hat, AB | Full-Time | Security Clearance Required

Are you organised, hands-on, and ready to keep things moving behind the scenes? Join our Operations team as an Inventory Coordinator and play a key role in ensuring our materials and products flow smoothly from warehouse to production.

About QinetiQ

QinetiQ is a global leader in defence, security, and critical infrastructure. With over 8,000 employees worldwide, we’re united by a mission to protect lives and secure the future through innovation. Our growing Medicine Hat site plays a vital role in delivering advanced UVS technologies and supporting global defence operations.

What You’ll Do

As our Inventory Coordinator, you’ll be the go-to person for managing inventory across our facility. You’ll work closely with Production, Procurement, and Quality teams to ensure materials are where they need to be—accurately tracked, safely stored, and ready for use.

Your day-to-day will include:

• Receiving, storing, picking, and packing materials and finished goods
• Keeping inventory records up to date in our ERP system
• Operating forklifts and pallet jacks safely
• Supporting production schedules with timely material flow
• Coordinating shipments and deliveries with internal teams
• Managing specialised inventory like lithium batteries and fleet vehicles
• Identifying ways to improve warehouse processes and reduce waste

What We’re Looking For

We’re open to training the right candidate, but here’s what would help you succeed:

Must-haves

• High school diploma or equivalent
• Valid non-GDL driver’s licence
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
• Comfortable using Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook)
• Able to lift up to 50 lbs and work in a fast-paced environment

Nice-to-haves

• Experience in warehouse or logistics operations
• Familiarity with ERP systems
• Forklift certification
• Experience towing trailers or managing fleet vehicles
• Knowledge of handling dangerous goods or specialised inventory

Safety & Security

This is a safety-sensitive role. You’ll be working near equipment and occasionally in field environments, so PPE and safety awareness are essential. You must be eligible for Canadian Class 2 Security Clearance and pass a background check.

Why Join Us?

We’re a collaborative team that values reliability, safety, and continuous improvement. You’ll be part of a company that supports your growth and gives you the tools to succeed.

You’ll also benefit from a competitive salary and benefits package, including extended health and wellness spending accounts, RRSP/TFSA matching, access to continuous learning and development opportunities, and more.
