Build a Skilled Trade Career with Real Advancement - Fast

Great West Radon is expanding in Calgary, and we’re hiring a mechanically skilled, tool‑proficient installer who is ready to move quickly into a full Radon Mitigator role. This is not an entry‑level labour position. We are looking for someone with real construction or mechanical experience who can step into a fast‑paced, technical trade and advance quickly.

Radon mitigation is meaningful work that protects families from the second leading cause of lung cancer. If you want a role where your technical ability matters — and where you can grow into a specialized, well‑paid trade — this is the opportunity.

Why Join Us?

- Dynamic Work Locations: Say goodbye to the same old view – our job sites bring you to exciting and varied places.
- Positive & Supportive Team: Work in an environment that values collaboration and growth.
- Flexible Hours: Enjoy 4-8 hour shifts, giving you variety in your schedule.
- Growth Opportunities: Learn a skilled trade and take steps toward a fulfilling career.

What You’ll Do As an Radon Mitigation Installer, you’ll play a vital role in providing high-quality installations for our clients. Tasks include:

- Perform radon mitigation installations in residential and light commercial settings
- Drill through concrete slabs, rim joists, and foundations
- Run PVC piping, mount fans, seal penetrations, and complete full system builds
- Use power tools confidently and safely (hammer drills, impacts, saws, vacuums, etc.)
- Diagnose suction points, airflow, and system performance
- Maintain clean, safe, professional job sites
- Communicate respectfully and professionally with homeowners
- Work independently once trained, with full support from our operations team

Who We’re Looking For (Strict Requirements)

You must be confident with:

- Hammer Drills
- Impacts/drivers
- Saws
- Concrete drilling or coring
- General construction tools

Examples include

- HVAC
- Plumbing

- Mechanical trades

Physical Aptitude:

- Ability to lift up to 50 lbs




- Comfortable on ladders
- Able to work in basements, crawlspaces (tight spaces), and outdoors

Positive Attitude:

- Formal education isn’t required – just a can-do spirit and dedication to learning.

Team Player:

- Strong communication and collaboration skills are a must.

Reliable Transportation:

- While training, a personal vehicle to travel to job sites is essential.
- Once all necessary criteria is met to achieve certification, a company truck will be provided.

Safety-minded, skilled, and customer facing: This role requires entering clients’ homes and representing our company directly.

You must be

- A clear, confident communicator
- Personable and respectful with homeowners
- Able to explain what you’re doing in simple, professional terms
- Someone who maintains a clean appearance and professional conduct
- Fully aligned with our zero‑tolerance policy for substance use on job sites

If you do not have real tool experience, a construction/mechanical background, or the ability to communicate professionally with clients, this role is not a fit.

Compensation Structure

During Training (Until Certification):

- Daily Rate: $150/day (covers first 6 hours)
- Hourly Rate: Additional hourly rate for jobs more than 6 hours

After Certification (Full Mitigator):

- Daily Rate: $250 - $260/day based on experience vs. Red Seal trained (covers 8 hours)

Most candidates with strong tool and construction backgrounds progress through to a full mitigator role within the first 3 months of employment.

Additional Earning Potential

Beyond base daily rates, team members have access to several performance‑based earning opportunities. These may include double‑day installations (two daily rates in one day), solo‑day premiums, Red Seal top‑up rates, annual bonuses,



and periodic team competitions. We also offer incentives for exceptional workmanship, HEPA HERO installs, and other performance programs introduced throughout the year.

Our top performers regularly exceed the typical annual range through these additional compensation pathways.

Company Truck Provided Upon Certification

While training, you’ll use your own vehicle to reach job sites. After you achieve certification and demonstrate the ability to run installations independently, you’ll be assigned a company truck, a key milestone in your progression to full mitigator status.
