Role overview

Licensed Diesel Mechanic I (Red Seal)

Location: Winnipeg, Manitoba Schedule: Tuesday to Saturday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Pay: $40.00 to $45.00 per hour

Winnipeg's a small enough trade that word gets around about which shops treat their journeypersons properly and which ones don't. This is one of the good ones.

Straight days, heated shop, current diagnostic equipment, and a fleet that gets maintained on schedule rather than run until something lets go. If you're a Red Seal mechanic who's tired of doing top-tier work for middle-of-the-road pay, have a look at this one.
