Please Read Before Applying

This position is based out of Edmonton, Alberta, but the majority of our work is out of town throughout Western Canada. You must be prepared to work away from home for extended periods.

This isn’t a position for someone looking for a predictable Monday-to-Friday local schedule. Our projects and schedules vary.

For someone who is dependable, works hard, learns quickly and takes pride in their work, there is plenty of room to grow and advance within the company.

If you’re looking to build your welding career while learning a specialized trade in the overhead crane industry, we’d like to hear from you.
