Job description
Apex Ridge Drilling is a family-run diamond drilling contractor working exploration programs across Northern British Columbia. We are hiring driller helpers for a winter program in the Skeena Valley, northwest of Terrace. Crews fly in and out of Terrace on a 20/10 rotation with helicopter transfers to the drills.
This is an entry-level role with clear progression: most of our senior drillers started as helpers. You will handle rod handling, core sampling, site cleanup and equipment maintenance under the supervision of an experienced driller. Apex Ridge provides all winter gear, camp accommodation in heated core shacks, and meals prepared by a camp cook.
Requirements
- Physically fit and able to lift 50 lbs repeatedly in all weather conditions
- Willingness to work 12-hour shifts in a remote, helicopter-access setting
- No experience required; drilling, forestry or construction background an asset
- Valid driver’s licence
- Must pass pre-employment drug and alcohol screening
