You join a long-term project expected to run for 18 months or more, offering stability and consistent opportunities for growth. You can take advantage of abundant overtime, with time-and-a-half after 8 hours each day, premium rates on Saturdays, and double time on Sundays, while still having the flexibility to decline weekend overtime when needed. You work on a high-profile, large commercial/industrial data center, gaining valuable experience with cutting-edge infrastructure in a Tier III-designed, high-density facility. Positions open regularly, providing ongoing opportunities to continue or expand your engagement on site. You receive weekly pay and can access optional benefits through Manulife, supporting your financial security and well-being.

This role is based on a large data center construction site in Rocky View County, working primarily on day shift from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The environment is a live, active construction site where multiple trades operate simultaneously, and the client may adjust plans as the project progresses. You can expect a mix of indoor and partially enclosed work areas typical of a large data hall build-out, with periods of intense activity and quieter intervals. Standard shifts are 10 hours on weekdays, with overtime after 8 hours in a day. Overtime work on Saturdays is paid at time and a half, and Sundays at double time, with overtime frequently requested but not mandatory every weekend. The project involves extensive use of EMT conduit, cable trays, elevated work platforms, and aerial lifts, and requires consistent adherence to site safety protocols such as CSTS, fall protection, and elevated work platform procedures. The site is a high-capacity, 90MW, Tier III-designed data center, providing exposure to modern electrical and data infrastructure in a large commercial/industrial setting.
