The successful apprentice will gain exposure to a huge variety of tasks – custom part fabrication, equipment repair, prototyping, installations, and one-off builds.

  • Assist with installations, fabrication projects, and ad hoc builds.
  • Participate in continuous learning, applying theoretical training to hands-on work.
  • Provide support wherever needed in a dynamic manufacturing environment, gaining exposure to many technical areas.

Skills and Qualifications :

  • High school diploma required.
  • Completion of a pre-apprenticeship machinist program (1-year) OR currently a 1st or 2nd year machining apprentice.
  • Strong interest in mechanical systems and fabrication.
  • Ability to run or willingness to learn :
  • Manual lathe

  • Manual milling machines
  • Surface grinder
  • General shop and precision hand tools
  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints and technical drawing.
  • Ability to use precision measuring tools (e.g., micrometers, calipers, gauges)
  • Curious, resourceful mindset – comfortable creating parts that don’t exist yet and solving novel engineering problems.
  • Reliable, safety-conscious, and able to work with people across many departments.
  • Strong communication skills; asks questions early and seeks clarity when needed.
  • Bonus Consideration : Millwright / Industrial Mechanic apprentices with manual machining experience.
  • Not a Fit : CNC-only machinists
  • Compensation :

  • $23 CAD per hour.
  • Health & Dental benefits.
  • 2 weeks paid vacation.
  • Tuition Assistance Program.
  • Multiple company events throughout the year.
  • If you are interested in joining our team, please send your resume and your salary expectation to hr@vitacore.com with the subject line of “ Machinist Apprentice – Application ”. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
