Level Up Your Apprenticeship: 2nd-Year Welder Needed
Location: Thorsby, AB (Skip city traffic! Must live within a 40-minute drive of our shop).
Wage: $26.00 – $28.00 per hour, plus huge overtime potential

...
Tired of sweeping floors when you should be welding? Ditch high rent, traffic jams, and chaotic hours for our Thorsby, AB shop. We are an active structural plant seeking an ambitious Welder Apprentice. While rural base pay fits the local market, relentless overtime and three-day weekends make this a goldmine for hard workers. If you have ~2,000 bluebook hours (or pure grit) and live within 40 minutes, claim your spot on our floor.
Advantages
Permanent Four-Day Schedule: Work Monday to Thursday and own your Fridays. Use your long weekend to hunt, fish, or build personal projects.
Unlimited Overtime: Don't judge by base pay alone. Endless overtime lets driven apprentices stack huge weekly paychecks fast.
Real Fabrication Work: Earn prime bluebook hours on heavy structural steel projects instead of spending all day grinding.
Full Benefits & Year-Round Work: Enjoy shop tools, complete health benefits, two weeks PTO, and steady, year-round job security.
Responsibilities
Heavy Wire Welding: Run high-volume FCAW and MCAW (flat position) on massive industrial projects alongside veteran journeymen.
Structural Steel Assembly: Fabricate heavy I-beams, tower frames, and major steel components straight from blueprints.
Precision Jig Fabrication: Fit parts into custom jigs and use standoff techniques to hit tight manufacturing specs.
Safety Leadership: Keep your bay organized and uphold rigorous safety standards so everyone heads home safe daily.
Qualifications
Apprenticeship Status: Currently registered as an Alberta 2nd-Year Welder Apprentice.
Experience Level: Around 2,000 bluebook hours and real familiarity with fast-paced shop environments.
Core Welding Skills: Solid hands-on practice running FCAW, MCAW, or MIG processes on heavy steel.
Commute Radius: Resident within a 40-minute drive of Thorsby with a reliable ride.
Bonus Advantage: Current CWB tickets will fast-track your resume right to the front line.
