Job Description

Company Overview:

Woodland Mills was founded by two friends who shared a love for solving mechanical problems from a young age. As landowners, they were unable to find well-built, affordable forestry equipment, so they decided to engineer it themselves. From the moment they established Woodland Mills in 2009, the company's mission was clear: to offer robust, high-performance products at a reasonable price, while eliminating unnecessary intermediate costs by selling directly to customers.

Woodland Mills has become globally recognized as a leader in affordable forestry equipment, with a full line of portable sawmills, woodchippers, stump grinders, log arches and trailers. The company is headquartered in Ontario, Canada, with a 100,000 square foot warehousing and distribution network that extends throughout North America.

Woodland Mills products are trusted by acreage owners, hobby farmers, woodworkers and DIY enthusiasts. That loyal customer base continues to deliver industry-leading ratings, thanks to a solid commitment to quality, exceptional customer care and technical support. The co-owners remain actively involved in Woodland Mills, driving innovation and ensuring every product upholds their commitment to practical innovation and lasting value.
