  • Knowledge: Strong understanding of general job site safety practices, tool operation, and basic building materials.
  • Mindset: Someone who shows up on time every day, takes pride in a clean and safe job site, and brings a team-first attitude.

What You’ll Need

  • Mobility: A valid Manitoba driver’s licence and a reliable vehicle to travel to various job sites within Winnipeg.
