What is the difference between Shutdown Work vs Maintenance Technician?

AspectShutdown WorkMaintenance Technician
CertificationsOSHA safety training, OSHA 10/30, industry-specific certificationsOSHA safety training, industry certifications, technical diplomas
Work EnvironmentIndustrial sites, plants during outages, scheduled shutdownsFactories, plants, equipment repair, ongoing maintenance
Employer & Industry UsagePower plants, manufacturing facilities, oil & gasManufacturing, industrial, facilities management

Shutdown Work involves specialized tasks during plant outages, focusing on equipment disassembly, repair, and reassembly during scheduled shutdowns. Maintenance Technicians perform routine and preventive maintenance to ensure equipment reliability. While both roles require safety training and technical skills, Shutdown Work is more project-specific and time-sensitive, whereas Maintenance Technicians handle ongoing maintenance tasks.

Job description

Ledcor Industrial is more than a contractor-we're a powerhouse delivering fully integrated construction, maintenance, and turnaround solutions across some of the largest and most complex industrial projects in Canada. From site preparation to critical path execution, we bring deep expertise, strong coordination, and a relentless focus on safety to every turnaround.
As a multi-discipline, self-performing leader, we execute a significant portion of our work in-house. This provides strong exposure across all phases of execution-from planning and scheduling through shutdown execution and startup readiness. You'll work within fast-paced, high-pressure turnaround environments where precision, leadership, and clear communication are critical to success.
This role is based in Fort McMurray and supports a major turnaround project with rotational work schedules.
At Ledcor, it's not just about the project-it's about building a meaningful career with a team that values integrity, teamwork, and pride in craftsmanship. When you join our True Blue team, you're part of something bigger.
Essential Responsibilities
  • Lead field execution of mechanical scopes during turnarounds, ensuring safe, efficient, and high-quality delivery
  • Supervise and coordinate multi-disciplinary crews (pipefitters, welders, boilermakers, millwrights)
  • Oversee installation, maintenance, and repair of piping systems, vessels, rotating equipment, and mechanical components
  • Plan and execute rigging and lifting activities in compliance with safety standards
  • Drive daily planning, crew assignments, and workface coordination across disciplines
  • Monitor progress, productivity, and performance, proactively addressing schedule or cost impacts
  • Champion HSE compliance by leading safety meetings, toolbox talks, and field observations
  • Coordinate resources and ensure quality control while communicating effectively with stakeholders and supporting reporting and planning activities
Qualifications
  • Extensive industrial construction experience in oil & gas or heavy industrial environments
  • Strong background in turnaround and shutdown execution with a focus on mechanical scopes
  • Proven leadership experience supervising mechanical trades, including pipefitters, welders, boilermakers, and millwrights
  • In-depth knowledge of mechanical systems such as piping, vessels, and rotating equipment
  • Solid understanding of rigging practices and lift planning fundamentals
  • Demonstrated ability to lead crews in fast-paced, high-pressure industrial or turnaround settings
  • Strong proficiency in interpreting construction drawings, specifications, and mechanical work packages
  • Effective leader with strong communication, problem-solving skills, and a commitment to safety excellence and HSE program leadership
Working Conditions
  • Site-based position in Fort McMurray, AB
  • Rotational schedule supporting a major turnaround project
  • Day shift and night shift work required
  • Camp accommodations and travel provided (where applicable)
  • Physically demanding environment with exposure to industrial site conditions
