Concrete Finisher
Work – Industrial Civil (Structural Gradebeams, Pile Caps, & Slabs)
Duration – ~12-week temporary, project-based (July start) — strong potential to go permanent
Locations – Suncor Firebag Facility (Fort McMurray, AB area) — Fly-In Fly-Out (FIFO) with camp accommodations provided
Compensation – $35–$45/hr, based on experience and competency · Full flights and camp covered
Run the trowel to spec, work to grade, and hold your own on a busy, high-tolerance industrial pour.
Why this is worth your time
- Pay for what you bring. Competitive rate set to your real experience and competency — not a flat band.
- Full FIFO package. Flights and camp accommodations completely covered — zero out-of-pocket costs to get to site.
- Predictable rotation hours. A steady 14x7 continuous rotation schedule guarantees excellent hours and clear time off.
- Serious flatwork scopes. High-value, technically complex industrial slabs and structural finishing.
- A team that means it. Quality, safety, and accountability are non-negotiable here.
- A future, not just a job. Project-based entry with a strong path to go permanent — based on performance and fit.
What you'll finish
- Place, spread, screed, and finish concrete flatwork to specified industrial tolerances
- Power trowel and hand finish to strict structural standards
- Set and check grade pegs; work accurately to control elevations
- Install control joints and execute post-pour curing procedures
- Operate safely and productively on an active industrial site
