  • Familiarity with underground equipment, such as bolters, scoops, jumbos, and hydraulic drills, is required.
  • Must have a minimum of 3 years of experience working with Maclean Bolters, as these will be the primary equipment you will be working on.

  • Red Seal Certification is mandatory.

Preferred Candidates Have:
  • Experience maintaining and repairing underground equipment in mining operations.
  • Familiarity with underground safety procedures and confined space protocols.
  • Knowledge of surface equipment is an asset, but this role is specific to underground operations.
