The rate is $28.00 an hour, camp is provided, and travel to site is provided from Bonnyville, Alberta. The shutdown starts Thursday, September 25, 2026. This is very heavy work. Read the physical demands and the pre-employment requirements before you apply.
Exchanger cleaning on a shutdown. You work on the cleaning pad as part of a crew, handling heat exchanger bundles and the equipment used to clean them, moving hose and gear through the shift, and keeping the scope moving so exchangers go back to the unit on schedule. It is wet, heavy, repetitive work in full PPE, and the shutdown schedule does not move. Crews work under a supervisor with site safety controls in place at all times. If you have done industrial cleaning, vac work or turnaround labour before, you already know what this job asks for. What You'll Do

• Clean heat exchanger bundles and components as part of an exchanger cleaning crew
• Move, position and handle bundles, hose, fittings and cleaning equipment on the pad
• Set up, drag and tear down hose and equipment repeatedly through the shift
• Keep the cleaning pad organized, contained and clear of hazards
• Work in full PPE, including protection against water spray and debris
• Take part in pre-job hazard assessments, toolbox talks and safety meetings
• Follow all client, site and GrizzlyTrek safety procedures without exception

What You Bring

• Physically capable of very heavy, sustained manual labour for a full shift, every shift
• Able to lift and carry repeatedly, and work bent, kneeling and in awkward positions
• Able to work in full PPE and wet conditions, outdoors, in all weather
• Willing to live in camp at Conklin for the length of the shutdown
• Able to travel from Bonnyville, Alberta on the provided transportation
• Reliable, on time, and able to take direction on a fast moving shutdown

Pre-Employment RequirementsAll of the following apply to this project and must be completed before you travel to site.

The assessment will cover:

• Health History Review: A thorough examination of the candidate's health background.
• Pre-Medical Evaluation: Measurements such as height, weight, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation.
• Musculoskeletal Examination: A head-to-toe assessment to identify any limitations or concerns related to physical health.
• Critical Strength and Mobility Test: A series of tasks assessing lifting, carrying, and positional abilities aligned with the job's physical demands (up to 50 lbs).

• Worker to provide current safety training tickets, valid government issued identification, and CSA approved safety boots (minimum 6 inch, fully laceable)
