About the role
YOU’VE always WANTED TO BE AN action HERO
The Opportunity You love being part of the action. You’ve never been one to sit still and the more that’s going on, the better – after all, that’s when you truly shine. It’s what makes you the go-to person whenever someone needs something done. You know how to keep things moving smoothly and save the day.
- The hours for this position are 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM. *
The Team You’ve Been Looking For AMA is more than a workplace; it’s a family. Together, we help protect the things that matter most to our more than one-million members—everything from roadside safety to retail savings, food security to childhood well-being. And with operations that span automotive, registries, travel, insurance and more, the opportunities to grow with us are almost limitless! Building on a century of proud service in Alberta communities, we’re passionate about making a meaningful difference in the places where we live and work. And that all begins with our people. As part of the AMA team, you’ll enjoy: Competitive wage Employee-exclusive discounts on travel, insurance, memberships, and more Ongoing professional development Vacation earnings paid out with each pay period Flexible work models that make sense for your lifestyle
For us, curiosity fuels innovation. We value people who are eager to explore new ideas and who are comfortable putting emerging technologies into practice. We see experience with AI‑powered tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, and similar platforms as a real plus - especially when it’s used to work smarter, increase efficiency, and find better ways to get things done.
Who You Are You’re a spirited team player who excels in a fast-paced environment and thrives on a challenge. You take pride in your ability to stay calm and focused, even in the midst of chaos. You’re a stickler for details and accuracy. You have the ability to find the right information quickly because there’s no clutter in your workspace – you believe that everything has a place, and with everything in its place any ship is bound to sail smoothly. You’re an excellent communicator, an even better listener and you can anticipate the needs of your team and customers. Deadlines? No sweat. You have excellent time management skills, so you always deliver on time.
How You’ll Make an Impact Report to the Supervisor, Warehouse Services. Facilitate the transportation of materials by couriering items to AMA locations, ensuring timely and accurate delivery for scheduled and on-demand requests.

Document and track shipping and receiving transactions utilizing specialized software systems. Communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders to ensure seamless coordination. Assist a wide variety of building operation tasks to support AMA facilities, such as providing support building operators and/or contractors
What You Bring to the Table You have a high school diploma. You have a valid Alberta Class 5 driver’s license. You may not be a tech whiz but you’re pretty good at finding your way around a computer. Experience in a shipping/receiving or vehicle transport environment would be an asset.
Belonging Matters Here AMA is committed to providing an inclusive, respectful, and accessible environment. If you require an accommodation at any time during our recruitment process, please contact recruitment@ama.ab.ca. We’ll work with you feel supported throughout your journey with us.
About AMA - Alberta Motor Association
AMA is a multi-service organization representing 1 million Albertans. While most often known for our roadside assistance program, we also offer travel, registries and insurance services, Alberta’s largest driver education school, a member rewards program and member events in our communities. Part of the CAA and AAA family, we’re focused on our member’s needs and guided by their values to provide products, services and advocacy to help them live confidently.
Anyone here will tell you that we’re a different kind of employer, and it all comes down to how we treat our members - and each other. We've boiled it down to just two words: Practically Family. That’s not just a catchy phrase, we live it every day through simple gestures.
Practically Family is the web developer heading off shift who stops to help a team member carry items in the door, the insurance advisor who uses their break to pick up an extra coffee for a co-worker who’s having a bad day, or the registries agent who takes the time to help a member put their new licence plate on their vehicle. Not to mention all the birthday parties, free food days and wedding showers we throw for each other!
Taking care of one another, encouraging one another. It’s what family does, and what being Practically Family is all about. If you can picture yourself answering yes to the question, “Am I treating this member or colleague like a close family member or friend?” with every interaction, you’re our kind of people!
