Are you a hands-on, physically fit skilled labourer looking to take the next step in your career?

As a Lead Hand, you'll be right in the action — operating equipment, loading trailers, guiding crew members, and helping keep daily operations moving smoothly.

• Support the fabrication team with pipe assembly, hydro testing, welding prep, and bolt-ups.
• Assist with inventory, shipping/receiving, and maintaining an organized and clean workspace.
• Help ensure daily tasks are completed efficiently, working closely with the shop coordinator.
• Provide guidance and mentorship to labourers and junior crew members.

REQUIREMENTS:

• Physically fit and capable of working long hours in a fast-paced environment.
• Experience operating power and hand tools (impacts, drills, wrenches, etc.).
• Ability to operate equipment such as forklifts, skid steers loaders, etc.
• Solid problem-solving skills and the ability to take initiative while also working as part of a team.
• Class 5 Driver's License with a clean abstract.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• Previous shop or field experience in oil & gas, fabrication, or a similar setting is an asset.
• Must pass a pre-employment Drug & Alcohol Test

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:

• Someone with a strong foundation who's hungry to grow.
• You're confident in the shop and wanting to step into a leadership role.
• You take pride in your work and care about getting the job done right — and safely.
