This position focuses primarily on operating a vertical band saw to perform precise angle cuts on C-channel, I-beams, and other steel objects, while also assisting with material movement, basic cleanup, and general support tasks across the facility. The role serves as a strong stepping stone into other production and facility positions and requires accurate reading of prints and bills of materials to complete cutting orders.
Essential Skills
Minimum of 1+ years of band saw operation experience in a production or industrial environment.
Proficiency in operating power tools and production machinery related to metal cutting and material processing.
Hands-on experience cutting metal and pipe, including structural steel such as C-channel and I-beams.
Strong material handling skills, including tracking, organizing, and staging raw and finished materials.
Ability to perform heavy lifting of up to approximately 50 pounds safely and repeatedly.
Ability to read and understand blueprints and bills of materials to execute accurate cuts and orders.
Demonstrated ability to keep work areas organized and maintain a clean, safe workspace.
Experience operating a sit-down forklift in a shop or warehouse environment.
Attention to detail and ability to perform precise cuts according to specifications.
Reliable work habits and ability to work full-time day shifts in a production setting.
Additional Skills & Qualifications
Valid Alberta overhead crane ticket is considered an advantage.
Valid Alberta forklift ticket is considered an advantage.
Experience working in a structural steel or oilfield-related fabrication shop is beneficial.
Why Work Here?
Join a globally active organization that is a major player in the mobile oilfield sector, offering long-term stability with work already booked well into 2025 and beyond. Enjoy a centralized shop location compared with similar facilities in the city, along with a competitive total rewards package that includes 100% employer-paid medical and dental benefits, stock options, and a pension plan with a 5% wage match and full vesting. Employees receive every statutory holiday off and benefit from a culture focused on growth, with significant expansion plans and opportunities to develop into other roles within the facility.
Work Environment
The role is based in a fabrication and production shop environment with approximately 70 trades workers and plans for significant expansion. The facility operates on a day shift schedule, Monday to Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with overtime available after 8 hours in any day. The shop uses band saws, jib cranes, forklifts, and various power tools to process structural steel and pipe. The environment is industrial, hands-on, and safety-focused, with frequent material handling and heavy lifting. The location is not accessible by public transit, so reliable personal transportation is required to commute to the site. Dress is typical for a fabrication shop, with appropriate workwear and safety gear needed to work safely around machinery, steel, and material handling equipment.
