Robin, Audrey, and all the staff at Barrett Firewood want to wish Kate and her family all the best with their upcoming move to British Columbia. Kate was often the voice you heard on the office phone, answering questions, taking orders, and keeping the deliveries flowing. We will all miss her.

We are currently looking for someone to fill her position, and appreciate your patience with possible delays in returning calls if we are not able to hire someone before she leaves us on August 21st, and with any possible hiccups as we train a new employee. If you think that you, or anyone you know, might be a good match for the job, have a look at the full job description as posted on our web page and get in touch through the email posted here: https://www.barrettfirewood.ca/post/customer-service-administrative-assistance

Thank you for everything Kate, we will miss you!!
