- 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.
