- Skilled in cutting, threading, and welding pipes (variety of materials: steel, PVC, ductile iron, etc.)
- Knowledge of local safety protocols and practices, with a commitment to working safely at all times
- Team player attitude — you’re as comfortable communicating with engineers as with your fellow fitters
- Flexibility to adapt as the project demands shift (because in construction, they always do!)
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.
