The Crossing Company - LRD South
Taber, AB , CAN

The Crossing Company – Light Rig Division (LRD) is growing, and we're looking for experienced, motivated, and safety-focused individuals to join our team. As one of North America's largest trenchless construction companies, our people are the reason we lead — and we're committed to helping you build a long, rewarding career in the field.

This is hands-on, physical work for people who take pride in putting in a hard day and backing up their crew. As a Roughneck on our HDD rigs, you'll be on the front line of pipeline construction projects across Western Canada — handling drill pipe and tooling, moving equipment, and doing the labour that keeps the rig turning. If you're dependable, safety-minded, and not afraid to work in any weather, we want you on our team.

What You'll Do

• Perform the physical, labour-intensive work of running an HDD rig
• Handle drill pipe, tooling, and equipment safely and efficiently
• Support the Driller and crew through every stage of the bore
• Keep the worksite clean, organized, and safe
• Work outdoors in all conditions, day or night

What We're Looking For

• A hard worker — this role is physically demanding, and we want people who thrive on that
• A strong commitment to safety — for yourself and everyone on your crew
• Reliability and a team-first attitude
• Ability to work outdoors in all weather and terrain
• HDD or drilling rig experience is an asset
• Valid Class 5 driver's license required;
  Class 1 strongly preferred
• Safety tickets: SFA (Standard/Intermediate First Aid), H2S Alive, GDII, PCST, CSTS 2020
• 12-hour rotating day/night shifts, with rotations
• Willingness to travel to job sites across Western Canada
• Ability to successfully pass pre-employment and periodic drug and alcohol testing

What We Offer

• Competitive wages based on your position and experience, plus daily and weekly overtime

Premium for holding an experienced Class 1 driver's license

• Comprehensive benefits — dental, vision, life insurance, and Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• Paid travel to and from worksites, plus Living Out Allowance (LOA) where applicable
• Accommodations provided while on project
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) provided
• A genuine safety-first culture and real opportunities to grow and move up
