Within our team, we call this Doing It Right!

The Opportunity

Reporting to the Operations Manager, the Track Protection Worker is responsible for controlling and directing contractor activities within active railway rights‑of‑way. Using established railway operating rules and protection protocols, you will ensure worksites are cleared safely ahead of train movements while minimizing disruption to railway operations.

This role is critical to ensuring worker safety, public safety, and operational continuity within active rail environments.

This position requires regular travel throughout the Greater Toronto & Hamilton Area and flexibility to work varied schedules. Willingness to work night shifts is an important requirement.

Control access to work zones to protect workers and the public from hazards.
Communicate with Rail Traffic Controllers and other Track Protection personnel using established procedures and radio communication.
Install and remove railway protection devices (flags, signage) at designated locations.
Direct the safe movement of personnel and equipment through work areas.
Prepare daily reports, including timesheets and work documentation.
Promote and enforce the company’s safety program, ensuring all workers adopt a safety‑first mindset.
Operate company vehicles as required.
Perform other related duties as assigned.

Post‑secondary education and/or equivalent experience (preferred).
Valid Ontario Class G Driver’s Licence and a clean abstract is an important requirement.
Ability to read instructions and follow written policies and procedures.

Strong concentration and situational awareness in dynamic environments.
Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills.
Ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities under pressure.
Understanding of workplace safety requirements and procedures.
Ability to work in a safety‑sensitive role directing contractors in active railway environments.

What We Offer

Competitive compensation, with earning potential up to $100,000 annually
Paid training, including:
- Canadian Railway Operating Rules (CROR)
- Track Inspection Guidelines (TIG)
- Personal Track Safety (PTS)
- Mentorship and on‑the‑job training
Union membership, with access to benefits and pension programs.
