For more than 125 years, Windsor Salt has improved the lives of Canadians by making their food tastier, their roads safer, their pools cleaner, and so much more. From the salt we mine and produce through evaporative processes, Windsor Salt is a trusted authority on salt in Canada and has one of the industry's largest production and distribution networks. We're grateful to be known as a company that cares deeply about our commitment to a culture of zero harm, ensuring product quality, supporting employee well-being and exposure across the mining value chain, and positively impacting the communities we serve.

The Operations Rotation Program is a 12-month development program at an evaporation or solar site for production, technical, and leadership development. This program is for electrical, chemical, industrial, or mechanical engineers who have recently earned a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, chemical engineering, industrial engineering, mechanical engineering, or a master’s degree in engineering.

• Supervisory leadership
• Maintenance planning
• Systems, process and product technologies

• Rotations are designed around a business unit’s specific needs and provide exposure to the site’s senior management team.

• Program participants will receive formal and informal feedback throughout each rotation to ensure continued growth.
• Program participants will develop the following competencies:
  • Leadership

At the end of the program, the Operations Rotation Program graduate may interview for full‑time placement in a technical or managerial role.
