Job description

Location: Sydney, Nova Scotia
Employment Type: Full-Time
Anticipated Start Date: As soon as possible

About Us:

Full transparency: we work a little differently around here.

This isn’t just another job where you punch in and punch out. We come to work every day because we strive to earn a living in a meaningful way. Too many people exist without finding joy or purpose in their work, and we believe that’s just wrong. After all, we spend at least a third of our lives working—so why not create workplaces where people want to come to work in the morning and feel good when they leave at the end of the day?

At Protocase, your ideas don’t just matter—they shape our future. We thrive on collaboration and innovation, where every voice is heard, valued, and makes a real impact. Does this sound like something you’d want to be a part of and help grow?

Protocase specializes in custom sheet metal enclosures, panels, and parts for engineers and innovators worldwide, built with unmatched speed and quality. We take the impossible and make it possible for some of the brightest minds on the planet.

What You’ll Do:

As our Resource Innovation Specialist on our Logistics team, you’ll be a driving force behind how we manage and optimize materials, components, and operational assets. You’ll take on the challenge of identifying bottlenecks and inefficiencies in how resources move throughout our operations, and then lead initiatives to fix them. Your work will have a direct, tangible impact—from smoother production processes to smarter resource utilization.

This is a role for someone who loves seeing a puzzle, figuring out what’s slowing it down, and redesigning it for maximum flow and effectiveness. You’ll collaborate with departments across the company—from production to procurement—to implement better systems, tracking mechanisms, and standards that move us toward even greater operational excellence.

Some key responsibilities include:

• Leading projects to improve how materials are tracked, stored, and moved throughout operations.
• Identifying inefficiencies or waste and proposing innovative, sustainable solutions.
• Coordinating initiatives across teams to make sure our resource plans support overall company goals.
• Assisting in the creation and implementation of new standards for resource management.
• Maintaining accurate materials tracking throughout project phases and audits.
• Providing clear, concise reporting on trends and project outcomes to leadership.
• Fostering a culture of continuous improvement and innovation within resource management.

About You:

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is highly organized and thrives in environments where solving problems and implementing improvements is the norm.
• Doesn’t just spot issues—you take initiative and drive meaningful change.
• Has a sharp eye for process inefficiencies and collaborates well with others to fix them.
• Has experience in or around manufacturing, warehousing, or logistics, and understands how operations really work.
• Can work independently but also shines as part of a team.
• Is comfortable using tools like Excel and other basic data or tracking systems.

Bonus Points If You Have:

• Lean, Six Sigma, or other process improvement training.
• Experience implementing workflow or materials management systems.
• A track record of leading successful process changes.
