GrizzlyTrek is seeking experienced 40 ton rock truck operators to join our valued client's team on camp projects in the Fort McMurray region and across Alberta. This is full-time rotational work on a 14 days on, 7 days off schedule, starting at $28.00 to $35.00 per hour.Flights are covered from either Calgary or Edmonton, and camp room and board is provided. These are project based roles, and our client keeps multiple heavy civil earthworks projects running, so operators who run clean are typically moved to the next project rather than laid off at completion.

- Complete routine equipment inspections on tires, fluids, lights, and brakes before the truck moves
- Run haul roads to right of way rules and radio protocol at all times
- Watch for soft spots, edge conditions, and berm integrity, and report road problems to the grader or dozer crew

- Assist ground personnel, shovel out equipment tracks, and perform labour duties as required

Work Environment
The work is on active heavy civil earthworks, road building, and mining spreads. Shifts run 12 hours, days and nights, outdoors in all weather. Operators should be conditioned to repetitively lift up to 50 lbs, and should expect noise, vibration, and additional labour duties when the job calls for it.If you are short one or two tickets, say so on your application. We work with candidates to get tickets current rather than setting the file aside.
