Established in 2020, Vitacore is driven by our mission to develop transformative products and services that address critical global issues, ensuring ethical practices and effective outcomes for the betterment of humankind and the planet. Our journey began with a focus on the healthcare sector, where we became leaders in manufacturing recycling single-use protective equipment.

Today, we apply our expertise and innovative spirit to broader challenges, developing advanced technologies, sustainable practices, and innovative manufacturing processes that redefine what is possible across various industries. As part of our continued expansion, Vitacore is establishing operations in Ontario and is seeking a driven, hand-on leader to support the launch and ongoing management of our new warehouse facility. About the Role:

Vitacore Industries is seeking a highly driven, hands-on Warehouse & Logistics Supervisor to lead daily operations at our new Ontario facility located in Dorchester, just outside of London. This is a foundational role in our Ontario expansion and will play a critical part in building, organising, and executing warehouse and logistics operations from the ground up. This is not a passive maintenance position, it is an active, build-and-improve leadership role.

The successful candidate will take ownership of setting up operational workflows, organising inventory systems, coordinating inbound and outbound logistics, and ensuring the facility operates efficiently, safely, and with high accuracy. Working closely with Operations leadership and alongside a Machine Technician, this individual will help establish the operational backbone of the site as it grows. This role requires a floor-based leader who works alongside the team, not from behind a desk, and can coordinate up to 20 combined FTL shipments daily (inbound and outbound) while maintaining operational flow, safety, and precision.

While the position may not initially oversee a large team, it demands authority, strong decision-making capabilities, and the ability to operate independently while remaining aligned with head office. We are looking for someone who is highly organised, operationally minded, and solutions-driven; someone who communicates clearly and professionally, takes full ownership of their responsibilities, and leads by example. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, high-volume environment, performs well under pressure, and is comfortable building systems, structure, and accountability from the ground up.

• Coordinate up to 20 FTL/LTL shipments daily (inbound and outbound combined).
• Oversee pallet movement, storage layout, vertical stacking strategy, and material flow.
• Rebuild, reconfigure, and optimize pallets to maximize cubic capacity and safe stacking heights.
• De-nest pallets and break down inbound product efficiently to support workflow and space utilization.
• Monitor staffing levels, workflow, and productivity to meet service and cost targets.
• Provide hands-on operational support when staffing gaps arise.
• Ensure proper labeling, storage controls, and operational discipline are maintained.
