Where you will drive value:

  • Develop, implement and continuously improve the distribution centre’s quality system, including the HACCP program, procedures, controls and quality documentation.
  • Ensure compliance with corporate, regulatory and customer requirements related to food safety, quality, traceability and product conformity.
  • Lead the HACCP program and adapt risk assessments and control measures as operations, technologies and processes evolve.
  • Prepare and coordinate internal, corporate, regulatory and third-party audits, and ensure appropriate follow-up on non-conformities and action plans.
  • Act as a quality expert for operational teams and coordinate investigations, root cause analyses and corrective actions related to quality or food safety issues.
  • Define quality requirements and controls for new processes, equipment and technologies, and participate in testing and validation activities.
  • Contribute to the start-up, stabilization and continuous improvement of the new automated distribution centre, including the implementation of new processes and systems.
  • Use performance indicators and operational data to identify and implement continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Develop quality knowledge and practices across operational teams and help build a strong culture of food safety, quality and operational excellence.

What will enable you to have an impact:

  • College diploma or university degree in Food Science and Technology, Microbiology, Quality Assurance, or a related field.
  • Minimum of 3 years of relevant experience in quality assurance, quality control, or food safety, ideally within the food or beverage industry.
  • Strong knowledge of HACCP principles, Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), quality systems, audits, and food safety regulatory requirements.
  • Experience managing non-conformities, root cause analyses, and implementing sustainable corrective actions.
  • Ability to develop and implement quality processes in an evolving operational environment, with a strong sense of autonomy and prioritization.
  • Experience in food warehousing or distribution and knowledge of Good Distribution Practices (GDP), SQF, or similar standards is considered an asset.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in French and English (English is required to collaborate with colleagues in other Canadian provinces).

A role aligned with what creates the greatest collective impact.

People are at the heart of our success. Our culture encourages collaboration, transparency, and accountability in order to generate value and achieve sustainable results. Being part of the team means committing to an environment where everyone’s impact truly matters.
