Behind every clean, safe, and fully operational Fitness World gym is a team working hard to keep it that way — and you’ll be right at the center of it. Reporting to our VP of Construction & Facilities, you’ll be the organizational engine that keeps purchasing, inventory, technician scheduling, and preventative maintenance running smoothly across our 18 BC locations.
It’s a detail-driven, behind‑the‑scenes role where your organization and follow‑through show up in every well‑stocked, well‑maintained club our members walk into. If you love bringing order to a lot of moving parts and taking ownership of the details, you’ll fit right in here.
What You’ll Do Purchasing & Orders- Process orders and create, issue, and track purchase orders (POs) for materials, equipment, parts, and services.
- Gather and compare vendor quotes, set up new vendors, and keep vendor account records up to date.
- Match POs to packing slips and invoices, sort out any discrepancies, and code invoices for accounts payable.
- Stay on top of order status — expediting deliveries and following up on backorders so techs aren’t left waiting.
- Keep accurate inventory records for parts, supplies, tools, and equipment across locations.
- Monitor stock levels, set reorder points, and replenish before things run short.
- Run and reconcile periodic cycle counts, tracking down and resolving any variances.
- Maintain asset, equipment, and warranty registers.

- Be the go‑to administrative point of contact for the field team.
- Support departmental budget tracking and keep an eye on spend against budget.
- Prepare cost summaries, spend reports, and PM / KPI reporting for the VP.
- Process expense reports and reconcile department purchasing cards.
- Flag variances early and pitch in on cost‑control and cost‑saving initiatives.
- Maintain vendor and contractor records, including insurance certificates and WorkSafeBC clearance letters.
- Track service contracts, warranties, and renewal dates, and prompt renewals before they lapse.
- Help keep permits, inspections, and regulatory records current and organized.
- Support health & safety documentation and compliance records for the department.
- Manage correspondence, meeting scheduling, agendas, and minutes for the VP as needed.
- Keep digital and physical filing and document control tidy and well organized.
- Prepare spreadsheets, presentations, and reports.
- Provide general administrative support to the Construction & Facilities team.
- 2–3+ years of administrative experience, ideally in construction, facilities, trades, property management, or a similar field.
- Experience with purchasing / PO processes and invoice reconciliation.
- Strong Microsoft Office skills (Excel, Outlook, Word) and the confidence to pick up ERP, CMMS, or procurement systems.

- Comfort and accuracy working with numbers, records, and reporting.
- Clear, friendly written and verbal…
