- Act as a Deckhand on Spill Response Vessels.
- Act as Master of small vessels.

- Complete assigned work orders, vessel runs, annual equipment refits, vessel dry docking, and assist with regulatory inspections, i.e. Transport Canada Vessel Inspections and Class Inspections.
- Conduct inventory checks of warehouse, vessels and trailers.
- Provide training to our new hires/ casuals/ contractors.
- Work on project teams and committees.
- Compliance with Canada Labour Code and Canada Shipping Act during spill and non-spill activities.
- Interact positively with the public and other stakeholders.
- Other duties as assigned.

The following are considered assets: Small Vessel Operator Proficiency (SVOP), Radio Operators Certificate (ROC-M), Marine Emergency Duties (MED A1/A3) certificate, previous experience with marine and small power equipment maintenance, Small Vessel Machinery Operator (SVMO) and working knowledge of local coastlines, and emergency response training. You also need to be a collaborative team player who thrives on coordinating and interacting with multiple people and be comfortable managing shifting priorities.

At WCMRC we value open and honest communication that fosters a climate of trust, integrity in all our business practices, success through competency, creativity, and teamwork, and being a steward of the environment. We believe that putting our values into practice creates long-term benefits for our employees, shareholders, stakeholders, suppliers, and the communities we serve.

**We thank you in advance for your response and regret that only those selected for further consideration will be contacted.
