Help Local Businesses Grow

Kaizen Business Solutions is looking for an organized and motivated Inside Sales & Marketing Coordinator to support a growing portfolio of businesses in Fernie and throughout the Elk Valley.

Kaizen provides sales, marketing and operational support to several established local companies, including Tunnel49 Adventure, Tunnel49 Automotive, Fernie Towing and 24/7 Fuel by Fernie Cardlock.

This position is a strong fit for someone who enjoys variety, communicates confidently with customers and can keep multiple projects moving without losing track of the details.

You will work closely with our Sales and Marketing team, helping respond to sales opportunities, coordinate marketing activities and support the continued growth of our businesses.

What You’ll Be Doing

Your primary responsibilities will include:

• Responding to customer inquiries and directing opportunities to the appropriate business
• Preparing basic quotes and following up with prospective customers
• Maintaining accurate customer, lead and sales information in our CRM and related systems
• Coordinating marketing campaigns, promotions and community initiatives
• Scheduling approved social media content across multiple brands
• Assisting with digital advertising, email marketing and website updates
• Maintaining marketing calendars, campaign records and basic performance reports
• Communicating with customers, community partners, vendors and internal team members
• Supporting leadership with research and other sales or marketing projects

This is a coordination-focused position. You will not be expected to independently manage every aspect of sales and marketing from your first day. Training and direction will be provided as you learn our businesses, systems and processes.

What We’re Looking For

You may be a strong fit if you:

• Communicate clearly and professionally in writing, over the phone and in person
• Are organized and comfortable managing several priorities
• Follow through on tasks and maintain accurate records
• Are comfortable learning new software and digital tools
• Have a customer-focused and sales-minded approach
• Can work independently while also collaborating with a local team
• Are comfortable representing several related businesses
• Live in Fernie or within a reasonable commuting distance
• Are legally entitled to work in Canada
• Have reliable access to a computer and high-speed internet for remote work

Helpful Experience

Experience in any of the following areas would be an asset:

• Customer service or inside sales
• Marketing or communications coordination
• Social media scheduling and content management
• Digital advertising
• CRM or customer database management
• Website content management
• Tourism, automotive, transportation or another service-based industry
• Administrative or project coordination

Schedule and Work Arrangement

This is a permanent, part-time position of approximately 20–25 hours per week.

The position offers a flexible hybrid schedule, combining remote work with some regular in-person collaboration in Fernie. Most work will take place during weekday business hours, although the exact schedule can be arranged with the successful candidate.

Applicants must be available to attend required meetings, respond to time-sensitive customer inquiries and complete in-person tasks when needed. This is not a fully remote position.

The position may offer the opportunity for additional hours as the role and our businesses continue to grow.

Compensation and Benefits

• $18.25–$22 per hour, based on relevant experience
• Flexible part-time schedule
• Hybrid work arrangement
• Potential for additional hours as the position develops
• Casual dress
• Employee discounts with participating businesses
• Training across sales, marketing and business operations
• Opportunity to gain experience across several local industries

Please note that company computer equipment is not provided. The successful candidate must have reliable access to a computer and internet connection suitable for remote work.

Why Join Kaizen?

This position offers the opportunity to work directly with local business leaders and see the results of your work firsthand.

Rather than supporting only one brand or performing the same tasks every day, you will gain practical experience across several industries and contribute to real sales, marketing and community initiatives throughout the Elk Valley.

We value initiative, continuous improvement and people who are willing to identify opportunities—not simply complete assigned tasks.
