Jobs & Business Opportunities
Construction of Site C will create approximately 13,000 person-years of direct employment during construction. Site C will also provide business opportunities from the Peace Region and the rest of the province.
Job opportunities with the Site C project are also posted on the BC Hydro, WorkBC and Employment Connections websites.
We're committed to creating employment opportunities in the Peace Region and for British Columbians.
Our Site C Project Team
While contractors hire the vast majority of workers on the Site C project, we also require employees for its project team located in Fort St. John and Vancouver. Opportunities will be posted online at www.bchydro.com/careers, Employment Connections, or WorkBC.
The types of roles we regularly seek to fill include project managers, construction managers, and engineers.
