Description du poste
We are building an on-call roster of experienced Heavy Equipment Operators to join our winter snow removal team. You will be called in on an event-driven basis when it snows to operate a mini loader or front-wheel loader to clear commercial properties located primarily in the North End of Saskatoon. Because snow clearing happens immediately following snowfalls, shifts are mainly overnight, with some early morning and weekend work depending on weather conditions.
**Key Responsibilities**
* Safely and efficiently operate mini loaders or front-wheel loaders (equipped with snow blades, plows, or pushers) to clear commercial parking lots and access roads.
* Complete snow clearing operations according to site specifications on an on-call basis, primarily overnight during and after snow events.
* Perform pre-trip and post-trip equipment inspections to ensure machinery is safe and in good working order.
* Identify and avoid on-site hazards (curbs, light standards, fire hydrants, parked vehicles).
* Communicate effectively with supervisors regarding site conditions, equipment status, and job completion.
**Qualifications & Requirements**
* Proven experience operating at least one of the following: skid steer, forklift, mini loader, or front-wheel loader (experience operating with snow blades is a strong asset).
* Valid Driver’s License and reliable transportation to get to sites in winter weather conditions.
* On-call availability to respond to snow events on short notice, primarily for overnight shifts as well as early mornings and weekends.
* Strong situational awareness and commitment to safe equipment operation.
* Ability to work independently in winter night conditions.
