The Opportunity We are hiring an experienced Heavy Equipment Operator Deep Utilities to support large underground utility and civil projects based out of Calgary, with current work near Prince Albert, SK and other locations across Alberta. You will be a key part of a pipe and grade crew installing deep utilities safely and efficiently in demanding, high-production environments.

  • Run excavators, loaders, dozers, packers, skid steers, rock trucks, and related equipment to complete trenching, bedding, backfilling, and grading.
  • Read and interpret utility drawings, grade stakes, and construction plans to dig to correct line and grade the first time.
  • Work around existing underground utilities and congested infrastructure while maintaining strict excavation and trench safety procedures.

  • Valid Class 5 driver's licence; Class 1 or 3 is an asset, as is experience with large diameter pipe, shoring systems, GPS machine control, and high-production civil or telecom projects.
  • Comfort working outdoors in varying weather, travelling within Alberta as required, and collaborating with a field-based construction team.
