We’re looking for a knowledgeable and hands-on individual to provide short-term, post-commissioning support the day-to-day monitoring and basic maintenance of a new lagoon-based wastewater treatment facility that serves a domestic, non-municipal client.

This short-term, part-time contract (flexibility for the right applicant) is ideal for someone who wants to stay active, contribute to a small but committed team, and mentor site staff who have limited experience in wastewater systems.

You’ll play a key role in:

You will be supported by our Operations Manager.

**Key Duties**
- Help develop, implement and train local staff on proper daily operations and basic maintenance tasks
- Troubleshoot and resolve equipment and process issues
- Maintain accurate records and documentation (procedures, schedules, inventories, and invoices)
- Monitor plant performance to support local staff manage compliance and reporting requirements
- Work safely and cooperatively
- Participate in training and on-the-job learning; contribute to a culture of safety and reliability
- Perform other related duties as required

**Qualifications & Experience**
- 10+ years experience with wastewater treatment equipment, plant operations, maintenance, and reporting. Lagoon based experience is a strong asset
- Strong team player with a positive attitude
- Strong training background

**Additional Requirements**
- Ability to obtain a Reliability Clearance Certificate
