About Metrie
Welcome to Metrie. You probably know that we make – and distribute – the best interior moulding and millwork in North America. Here are a few stats that maybe you didn’t know:
• We are approaching our 100-year anniversary. Since 1926, we have been owned by the same family.
• We are the biggest (number 1!) manufacturer of MDF moulding in North America.
• We have 6 Manufacturing facilities across North America, from California to Ontario.
• We have 27 Distribution Centers (DCs) from coast-to-coast in Canada and the US.
• We employ around 1500 diverse, skilled, and passionate people
• Our Retail team is represented in hundreds of Lowe’s stores (and, in Canada, also Rona).
• Our revenue is growing year-on-year.

That growth means we are always looking for new Associates to grow with us. The number of vacancies is always changing, but if you are in Production, Operations, Sales, or Corporate functions like Finance, Procurement, Process, and IT, there maybe an opportunity for you to join us.

Working at Metrie
Finding your fit at an employer is important, so what will you find at Metrie? In 2021, we have never been busier – our Manufacturing facilities and DCs are fast paced, the work is demanding, we work shifts, often 24-7. Our customers are the largest building supplies companies in the world – like Lowe’s. They demand nothing but the best service and quality from us – and we are proud to exceed their expectations.

Most of our Associates like what they see. We have many people who have built their careers here (we have one Associate who has been with us for more than FIFTY years!) Why do people stay? Because we are family-owned, we see each Associate as a person and seek to support them. People are fairly paid, receive excellent benefits and support, and experience a safe work environment with opportunities to grow.

Rather than read what the company has to say, listen to some of employees - maybe they will become your colleagues? Check out some of the videos on the Why Join Us page - colleagues from across North America from diverse backgrounds, with different skills, who have made their home here. That could be you.
Meet Edwin: Push Hard. Edmonton, Alberta.
Edwin responded to a job advert 8 years ago for "General Labourers - Opportunity to advance. Blah blah blah." He has recently been promoted to Production Manager at our Edmonton facility. This is Me{trie}.
KC/DC: A Day in the Life
Our KC (Kansas City) DC (Distribution Center) shared a little bit of what's it's like in their home - fast paced, 7 days a week, serving our Retail customers across the US.
Meet Lissa: Mentors. Chicago, Illinois.
Lissa has been given many opportunities to use her skills over the years - supported by mentors who have sponsored her progress. As we continue to grow, ensuring Associates also grow their skills is critical. This is Me{trie}.
Meet Jiovanni and Keith: Your favorite Service Reps! Virginia.
Jiovanni and Keith aren't just great service reps, they are also pretty good at moviemaking! A Metrie Associate always has tricks up their sleeves. We cannot promise that every day is as Hollywood as this, but our Associates are always the star.
Meet Kristina: Community. Mid-West.
Kristina found a community at Metrie - people who celebrate together, and support one another - especially during the COVID pandemic. We call Metrie, Home.
Meet Chris: Outreach. Kansas City, Missouri.
"Give people some attention, some guidance...you are not by yourself. You can outreach to anyone and they will help. That's what Home is to me." We could not agree more, Chris.
