What is the Opportunity?

From fabrication and modularization to new builds, turnaround and maintenance, Aecon Industrial leads the way in industrial construction and water infrastructure, providing clients in Canada and the U.S. with vertically integrated solutions and exceptional self-perform work.

At Aecon, people are at the heart of everything we do. Aecon is focused on identifying, attracting, and hiring talented and diverse workers to work in our Cambridge Coating Facility and we are currently seeking an abrasive blaster to support projects at this facility.

While you do not need to be an experienced sandblaster to apply, we do expect applicants to have some training with the heavy equipment, grinding tools, and power tools that you use during this process. In addition to operating in the blast booth and unloading materials, you may also be asked to help with painting or coating tasks after you have successfully removed the unwanted substances from the surface.

Successful applicants must become members of the United Association union local 527 as a Metal Trades Worker.

What You'll Do Here:

Remove dirt, paint, grease, and other built-up material from surfaces.
Set up and operate a blast booth or similar equipment.
Load and unload the blast cabinet.
Assist with painting or coating as needed.
Apply and remove non-skid materials as needed.
Perform other related duties within the scope of the classification and Collective Agreement, as assigned.

What You Bring to the Team:

High school diploma or GED certificate.
Previous sandblasting experience or training.
Experience working with or removing heavy metals a plus.
Ability to lift, carry, push, and pull materials and equipment weighing up to 50 lbs independently.
Ability to stand, bend, kneel, crouch, and work in physically demanding positions for extended periods.
Ability to perform repetitive motions using power tools and blasting equipment.
Work is primarily performed in a fabrication shop environment and may include exposure to dust, noise, vibrations, and industrial equipment.
Ability to work indoors and outdoors, as required, in all seasonal and weather conditions.
Use of required personal protective equipment (PPE), including but not limited to respirators, protective clothing, gloves, hearing protection, and eye protection.

Reason for Vacancy: New

The expected pay range for this role is: $20 - $35 per hour

Individual pay is determined based on several factors, including work location, education, experience, unique skills and job conditions. Other considerations may include certifications, specialized training, and the complexity or scope of the role.

Aecon fosters diversity, inclusion and belonging within and across our organization. We welcome all to apply including, women, visible minorities, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, and persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity.

We are committed to adhering to the objectives and requirements outlined in the Accessible Canada Act (ACA), and to meeting the accessibility needs of persons with disabilities in a timely manner. Through the implementation of the requirements of the ACA and its applicable regulations, appropriate accommodations will be provided upon request throughout the interview and hiring process.
