Field Excellence - Collecting Essential Infrastructure Data

Why this Role

Do you enjoy being outdoors, staying active, and exploring new places? This temporary position gives you hands-on experience collecting essential data that keeps communities across Canada connected

No experience? No problem We're looking for motivated, physically active individuals in BC who are ready to learn, willing to travel (including occasional overnight stays), and comfortable spending their days on the move (expect 10,000+ steps daily).

As a Temporary Telecom Field Specialist, you'll receive full training to safely and accurately collect telecommunications infrastructure data — including GPS mapping, site inspections, and field surveys.

If you're detail-oriented and love hands-on work, this is a rewarding outdoor role where every day brings something new

Opportunity for Permanent Employment: While this position starts as temporary, high-performing team members may be considered for permanent roles. Demonstrate your skills, reliability, and enthusiasm, and you could build a long-term career with Encepta

What You'll Be Responsible For

Reporting to our Manager, Operations, you'll support field projects by collecting and documenting essential infrastructure data. Your main responsibilities include:

  • Performing site surveys and field inspections using mobile devices and simple tools
  • Collecting, checking, and organizing GPS data with accuracy
  • Recording field notes, measurements, and observations clearly and consistently
  • Assisting with basic data entry and project documentation such as spreadsheets, maps, and reports
  • Using GIS platforms and software tools (training provided) to process and map data
  • Communicating professionally with team members, contractors, and the public

What Success Looks Like

Success means being reliable, detail-oriented, and eager to learn. Within a short time, you'll be able to:

  • Comfortably performing field surveys and inspections with minimal supervision
  • Using mobile and GPS tools accurately
  • Adjusting quickly to new project areas, weather conditions, and schedules
  • Maintaining professional communication with team members and the public
  • Following safety guidelines
  • Producing accurate, high-quality data to keep projects on track

What We're Looking For

We're looking for motivated, reliable individuals ready to learn and enjoy working outdoors. No previous technical experience is required — full training will be provided.

  • Enjoy hands-on work in all weather conditions
  • Comfortable walking long distances daily
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Comfortable using smartphones or tablets to record data (training provided)
  • Communicate clearly and respectfully with teammates, contractors, and the public
  • Adaptable to changing locations, schedules, and project needs
  • Willing to travel and occasionally stay overnight
  • Dependable, safety-conscious, and a positive team contributor

What's In It for YOU?

This temporary opportunity offers more than just work experience — it's a chance to build skills, explore new places, and contribute to meaningful projects.

  • Real impact: Help expand telecommunications infrastructure across Canada
  • Hands-on experience: Learn industry tools through training and field work
  • Skill development: Gain transferable skills in data collection, mapping, and field operations
  • Supportive team culture: Collaborate with a group that values safety and respect
  • Competitive pay: Earn a solid hourly wage with potential for extended assignments
  • Adventure and variety: Work outdoors, travel to new locations, and experience something different every day
