Package Handler Trainer – FedEx – Edmonton, AB

FedEx is looking for a Package Handler Trainer to join its facility operations team at the Edmonton International Airport location. This is a full-time, permanent role with Federal Express Corporation Canada, ideal for someone who has hands-on experience in package handling and wants to take the next step by mentoring and training fellow team members.

In this position, you’ll be doing more than moving freight — you’ll be helping shape a safer, more efficient operation by passing your knowledge on to other Package Handlers. From loading and unloading to scanning and palletizing, your expertise on the floor will directly impact how the team performs.

About the Role: Package Handler Trainer

As a Package Handler Trainer at FedEx Canada, your primary responsibility is to support the movement of freight within and between facilities while actively training new and existing Package Handlers on best practices. You’ll demonstrate and teach loading, unloading, palletizing, and scanning techniques to ensure the team operates efficiently and safely at all times.

This role also requires an understanding of FedEx Canada operations and Canadian Customs regulations, along with the physical capability to handle heavy packages and the interpersonal skills to lead and coach others on the floor. A valid G licence and a clean driving record are required, as driving may be part of the position’s core responsibilities.
