Job Description

What You'll Do Every Day

Step into a dynamic and varied role where no two shifts are exactly the same. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Conduct thorough daily equipment inspections — instrument verification, cleaning, and calibration across the entire facility
  • Lead laboratory work and water quality sampling — measuring turbidity, residual chlorine, pH, ammonia, and more at multiple locations throughout the distribution system
  • Monitor and control the SCADA system — keeping a real-time eye on plant performance and responding proactively to alarms
  • Manage and optimize chemical dosing — including Potassium Permanganate, Sulphuric Acid, Gas Chlorine, Aqueous Ammonia, and Polymer
  • Operate and maintain GE membrane micro-filtration systems — including weekly Clean-in-Place (CIP) procedures across 3 units
  • Perform preventative maintenance — oil changes, filter changes, greasing, pneumatic valve rebuilds, and more as part of the monthly PM program
  • Execute daily QA rounds at two reservoirs and a pump house to verify system integrity
  • Backwash 4 dual-media sand filters on a scheduled and demand basis
  • Manage chemical inventory and initiate procurement as needed
  • Accurately enter operational data into the Simo Management Water Database
  • Collaborate with on-site contractors and support DND-requested testing protocols
  • Contribute to a safe, clean, and professional work environment — janitorial duties and groundskeeping included

Qualifications

What You Bring

We value potential as much as credentials. If you hold any of the following, we want to hear from you:

  • Water Treatment Level 1 certification or higher (required)
  • Water Distribution certification (a strong asset)
  • Canadian residency for a minimum of 5 years — required to qualify for the industrial security screening program for CFB Wainwright site access
  • A drive to learn, a strong safety mindset, and pride in doing quality work


Additional Information

Why You'll Love This Role

  • Rare dual-technology exposure — operate both legacy and modern systems in a single facility
  • Meaningful work — safeguard drinking water for Canadian Armed Forces personnel and the Wainwright community
  • Fully funded certifications — Confined Space, First Aid, Fall Arrest, TDG, Chlorine Handling and more, all provided
  • Supportive team culture — you won't be thrown in the deep end; your growth is our priority
  • Unique work location — gain experience operating within a federal military installation

Schedule & Compensation

Training Period: Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM – 3:30 PM — a structured onboarding period to get you fully confident in the role.

Ongoing Schedule: 8 days on / 6 days off rotation — 10-hour shifts, averaging 80 hours over 2 weeks, starting on Tuesdays. Enjoy stretches of consecutive days off that many standard jobs simply can't offer.

On-Call Rotation: After training, you will participate in an after-hours callout rotation — compensated accordingly.

Salary: Competitive wages based on your certifications and experience — we reward what you bring to the table.

Your Benefits Package

After successfully completing your 3-month probationary period, you will be enrolled in a comprehensive benefits package:

  • Extended Health Care
  • Vision Care
  • Dental Care
  • Virtual Medicine
  • 6 Sick Days/Year
  • Boot Allowance ($175/yr)

Relocation support: Travelling and accommodation compensation may be available for candidates who need to relocate or commute to Wainwright.

Safety & Equipment

Your safety is paramount. All required PPE is provided by the company. A boot allowance of $175/year covers your steel-toed safety footwear. All safety training certifications are either recognized as an asset or will be fully provided — including Confined Space, First Aid, Fall Arrest, TDG, and Chlorine Handling.
