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.
