The Portland Canal Transportation Limited Partnership's Stewart mining division specializes in serving key customers by hauling copper ore from various mine sites to the Port of Stewart, where it is loaded onto vessels for export overseas. Our division is comprised of approximately 45 professional truck drivers, with equipment maintained by a dedicated onsite shop. As a Shop Operations Supervisor, you will be supported by a Division Manager, Operations Supervisors, and work with the Shop Foreman, Administrator, and the many Portland Canal Transportation LP employees who provide essential support services throughout the company.

The Shop Operations Supervisor oversees safe, reliable, and cost‑effective operations of the Portland Canal’s truck maintenance shop, yard, and port facilities. This role leads and manages people, processes, and assets to maximize equipment availability, port readiness, and up-time—while maintaining regulatory compliance and a strong safety culture. The Shop Operations Supervisor partners closely with Maintenance, Operations, and HSE to deliver up-time, schedule adherence, and customer service excellence.

Portland Canal Transportation Limited Partnership is a groundbreaking joint venture proudly operated by the Nisga’a Nation, Tahltan Nation Development Corporation (TNDC), and Arrow Transportation Systems Inc. This partnership has established the Port of Stewart as British Columbia’s first majority Indigenous-owned port—a significant milestone in advancing Indigenous economic leadership and ensuring full supply chain participation, from mining through to global export. The combined expertise and vision of the Nisga’a and Tahltan Nations, together with Arrow’s legacy in transportation, make Portland Canal Transportation a unique and dynamic workplace.

While Arrow remains an equal partner, the official legal entity overseeing this division is now Portland Canal Transportation Limited Partnership. We are proud to balance Arrow’s century-long tradition of service-focused transportation solutions with the entrepreneurial strength and cultural values of our Indigenous partners.
