Professional Contractor information

What is a professional contractor?

Professional contractors are individuals or companies hired to perform specific tasks or projects, often in fields like construction, renovation, IT, or consulting. They typically operate independently, rather than as employees, and are responsible for completing work according to a contract's terms. Contractors bring specialized skills and are usually engaged for a set period or until a project is finished. They manage their own taxes, insurance, and business expenses, offering flexibility to both themselves and the clients who hire them.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a professional contractor?

To thrive as a Professional Contractor, you need a solid understanding of construction practices, project management, and relevant building codes, typically supported by licensure or certification in your trade. Familiarity with tools such as project management software, estimating programs, and safety systems is essential for efficient operations. Strong communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills set top contractors apart when coordinating teams and client expectations. These skills ensure projects are completed safely, on time, within budget, and to client satisfaction.

What are some common challenges professional contractors face when managing multiple projects simultaneously?

Professional contractors often juggle several projects at once, which can present challenges such as balancing competing deadlines, coordinating with diverse teams, and ensuring consistent quality across sites. Effective time management, clear communication, and strong organizational skills are essential to stay on track. Contractors typically rely on project management tools and frequent check-ins with clients and subcontractors to address issues quickly and keep projects moving forward smoothly.

Hire Resolve is assisting petrochemical organizations in hiring experienced petrochemical professionals to support refinery, chemical, and downstream manufacturing operations across Canada. This is a multi-role opportunity spanning several functions within the sector, including plant operations, process and project engineering, reliability and maintenance, HSE and process safety, quality and laboratory functions, supply chain, and commercial/technical services. These roles are designed for mid- to senior-level professionals and offer a clear progression pathway toward senior leadership roles such as Operations/Production Manager, Engineering Manager, Reliability Lead, HSE/Process Safety Manager, and broader site leadership opportunities.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead safe, efficient plant operations across continuous and batch processes, utilities, and supporting units
  • Drive process optimization, debottlenecking, yield improvement, energy efficiency, and cost reduction initiatives
  • Support or lead capital projects from scope definition through execution, commissioning, and handover
  • Maintain robust technical documentation and change control (P&IDs, SOPs, operating envelopes, MOC)
  • Strengthen asset reliability through preventive/predictive maintenance strategies, RCA, shutdown/turnaround planning, and integrity programs
  • Ensure compliance with applicable provincial OHS requirements and site HSE management systems, including process safety controls where applicable
  • Lead and participate in risk assessments (PHA/HAZOP/LOPA), incident investigations, and corrective action closeout
  • Manage contractors and safe systems of work (Permit to Work, isolations/LOTO, method statements and risk assessments)
  • Monitor and improve KPIs for safety, production, quality, reliability, and budget performance
  • Collaborate with Operations, Engineering, Maintenance, Laboratory, Supply Chain, and external vendors to deliver site objectives
  • Support internal and external audits and inspections; maintain continuous improvement initiatives
  • Coach and develop teams through training, competency development, and leadership support

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical/Instrumentation Engineering, Chemistry, or a related discipline (a P.Eng. designation or eligibility is an advantage for certain engineering roles)
  • Typically 7-15+ years of experience in petrochemicals, refining, specialty chemicals, polymers, industrial gases, or comparable process manufacturing environments
  • Demonstrated experience in one or more functional tracks: operations leadership, process engineering, reliability/maintenance, rotating equipment, HSE/process safety, projects, quality/laboratory, or commercial/technical support
  • Working knowledge of safety and regulatory expectations in Canada (provincial OHS frameworks, contractor safety, hazardous energy control/LOTO, and process safety practices where applicable)
  • Familiarity with common plant systems and tools such as CMMS/EAM (e.g., SAP/Maximo), process historians (e.g., PI System), and standard engineering documentation practices
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to lead cross-functional teams and drive delivery
  • Willingness to work onsite in an industrial environment; some roles may involve shift coverage, on-call rotation, or travel depending on site needs

Benefits

  • Extended Healthcare Plan (Medical, Disability, Dental & Vision)
  • RPP - Group RRSP
  • Group Life - AD&D - Critical Illness Insurance
  • Paid Time Off Benefits
  • Training & Development
