We Are Hiring for Careers, Not Just Jobs.
Prince George offers the ultimate lifestyle upgrade: a place where attainable housing costs essentially give you a raise, and a fifteen-minute commute gives you your time back. You can trade a cramped condo for a detached home and still have the budget to enjoy the 1,600 lakes and rivers within an hour of your doorstep. We are the Sports Capital of BC, a community that rallies around the Cougars and shops at local farmers' markets, yet still offers the big-city convenience of Costco and Superstore.
Your Base Camp for Northern Adventure
At Allpoints Fire Protection, we have set the standard for the industry in the North. While Prince George is home, you will help serve the vast beauty of Northern BC. You will help clients from Haida Gwaii to the Alberta border and from 100 Mile House to the Yukon. You will help provide safety and peace of mind to everyone from local schools and hospitals to remote mines and mills.
Culture & Growth
We know that true excellence comes from how we treat each other. We foster an environment defined by equal acceptance, mutual respect, and the unshakable belief that we are stronger together. We operate as a single, cohesive unit: every single person, from the office to the field, plays a critical role in our collective success.
We know that your growth is our growth; that is why we actively support your professional development with ongoing training and learning opportunities. This is a workplace where you are backed by a team that genuinely has your back, creating a space where you can speak up, share ideas, and do your best work without hesitation.
Shop Technician
You aren't just filling a seat; you are entering a pathway to becoming a certified expert. In this role, you will contribute to vital shop operations and work side-by-side with a team dedicated to keeping our communities safe.
What You Will Do:
- Master the Craft: Perform fire extinguisher inspections, testing, maintenance, and essential repairs.
- Safety & Standards: Hydrostatically test specification cylinders to strict Transport Canada standards.
- Logistics & Inventory: Assist with shipping and receiving, maintaining service equipment, and inventory control.
- Professional Execution: Complete and submit all task-related documentation in a timely manner while providing a high level of customer service.
- Explore the Territory: While primarily shop-based, remain open to occasional travel for work and/or after-hours tasks to support regional projects.
Who We Are Looking For:
- Attitude Over Aptitude: We can teach you the fire code, but we can't teach drive. We value a great attitude and strong work ethic above all else.
- Mechanical Mindset: A background or genuine interest in electrical, electronic, or mechanical systems is a massive asset. If you love taking things apart to see how they work, you belong here.
The Non-Negotiables
