SPS West | Calgary, Alberta
Full-time, day shift
Pay: Depending on experience

SPS West is looking for a dependable, hands-on person to support our Calgary manufacturing team.

This is practical shop work: preparing and finishing parts, moving materials, helping with assembly, packaging products and keeping the shop organized. We’re looking for someone who shows up reliably, follows instructions and takes pride in doing a job properly.

This is a general labour and production-support position. Welding experience is not required, and a welding apprenticeship is not available as part of this role.

What you’ll do

• Measure, cut, drill and prepare parts using shop equipment and hand and power tools
  
• Grind, deburr, clean and finish metal components
  
• Move and organize materials and fabricated parts
  
• Help the fabrication team handle and position materials
  
• Prepare and clean parts before and after fabrication
  
• Assist with product assembly
  
• Package finished products and prepare them for shipment
  
• Keep work areas, tools and materials clean and organized
  
• Follow company safety procedures and quality standards
  

What we’re looking for

• Reliable attendance and punctuality
  
• A safety-conscious approach to work
  
• Mechanical aptitude and comfort with hand and power tools
  
• Ability to read a tape measure accurately
  
• Ability to handle materials safely
  
• Willingness to take direction and learn shop procedures
  
• Attention to detail and the ability to work independently once trained
  
• A positive attitude and willingness to help the team
  

Previous experience in manufacturing, material handling, assembly, grinding or metal finishing would be helpful, but previous shop experience is not required. Forklift experience and basic drawing-reading skills are assets.

What we offer

• Stable, full-time employment on day shift
  
• Benefits program
  
• Company-supported training and development
  
• A variety of manufacturing projects
  
• Opportunities for advancement as the company grows
