**Location**:Calgary, Canada

**Benefits**:

- Extended Healthcare Benefits
- Competitive wages and regular salary reviews. The first will come at the end of your probationary period (3 months), then once every Fall afterward. More certifications net you more pay. As a small business, we value work ethic and are happy to reward it when we see it
- On-the-job, online, and in-classroom training, all company-paid and on the clock. We are more than happy to pay for this, so our employees can become Certified Irrigation Technicians, Contractors, or Designers
- Potential year-round employment: if you don’t mind cold weather or early mornings, we offer dedicated employees a steady salary throughout the winter to perform snow removal and contribute to special off-season projects.
- Company vehicles for commuting, for Irrigation Service Technicians, and other leadership positions in the company.
- We hire for attitude and train you for success, if you are willing to put in the time and effort you will succeed.
- We are a multi-cultural, diverse, and highly inclusive family-oriented company. If you want to be part of a team where you are a name and not just a number, look no further.

- Environmental consciousness, especially with regards to water conservation and fuel economy. Our work has the potential to be very wasteful when done carelessly, and we need everyone on our team to respect the precious resources we require.

- Driving company vehicles safely and professionally. A reasonably clean driver’s abstract is required.
- Must be mechanically inclined
- Must have your transportation

**What else to expect**:

- We are busiest in the spring and fall, but we stay busy throughout the summer. Typical summer hours are 40-48 per week, Monday to Friday. In the Spring and Fall, we’ll have to work a few Saturdays as well. We are a seasonal business and try to ensure we have every long weekend off, but this is sometimes not possible.
