We are looking for a reliable, safety‑focused Labourer to join our truss production team. In this hands‑on role, you will assemble wooden roof and floor trusses using pre‑engineered drawings. This position requires standing for extended periods and safely lifting 25–50 lbs.

- Inspect materials, equipment, and completed work regularly; report any issues promptly.
- Maintain a clean, organized workstation throughout the shift, including end‑of‑day cleanup.
- Operate tools and equipment safely, correctly, and responsibly as instructed.
Experience
- Experience as a truss builder (preferred but not required).
- Ability to use a hammer and read a tape measure (foot‑inch‑sixteenth method).
- Experience reading and understanding work orders.
- Previous experience in a manufacturing, construction, or labour‑intensive environment is an asset.
Knowledge & Abilities
- Strong verbal and written English communication skills.
- Team‑oriented, cooperative, and supportive.
- Detail‑oriented, accurate, and committed to safe work practices.
- Ability to prioritize tasks and work productively in a fast‑paced team environment.
- Willingness to learn new skills and participate actively in team huddles.
- Strong organizational and communication skills.
- Proactive mindset with a desire to improve processes and personal performance.
