What You'll DoFrom your first shift

• Meet trucks at the gate, direct incoming loads, and oversee safe unloading
• Weigh, ticket, and log every load in and out, and keep the paperwork straight
• Walk the site and inspect pumps, tanks, and facility equipment, and report anything that looks wrong
• Handle basic maintenance and repairs with hand and power tools

Why People Take This JobFacility operator is not a trade you can take at school. Operators get built on site, and this client is willing to build one. You start on the gate and on the ground, and as you prove out you take on the permits, the plant balancing, and the compliance side, until it is your facility to run. The rotation is a real 14 and 14 at home in Fort McMurray, so no camp, no flights, and no room to pay for on your days off. What We Offer

• $30.00 to $45.00 per hour, based on experience and how fast you pick it up
• Training provided on site, with no landfill or oilfield background required to start
• Overtime available based on operational requirements
