For decades, EAM has delivered reliable road and bridge maintenance across urban and rural corridors. Our teams perform the full scope of highway maintenance activities, including vegetation control, drainage, sign and pavement repairs, concrete and wood bridge repair, gravel surface grading, anti‑icing, snow plowing, and incident and emergency response. Based out of regional offices and yards, our skilled year‑round workforce scales up during winter operations to meet seasonal demands and maintain prescribed response times on numbered routes.

We take pride in our people and in serving the Fraser Valley, Robson, and Skeena communities with diligent patrols, clear communication, and consistent quality. As part of the Emil Anderson Group, we pair deep local experience with the resources of a respected BC construction network to keep people and goods moving safely year‑round.

Our success is rooted in our Core Values:
Safety, Leadership, Improvement, Commitment, and Excellence. Joining our team means working on landmark projects, learning from industry leaders, and advancing your career in a supportive, safety-focused culture.

  • Ability to work independently as well as collaboratively with others; strong communication and teamwork skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to assist apprentices in learning and developing skills.
  • Physically fit; able to perform labour‑intensive tasks and lift as required.
  • Mentally alert and safety‑conscious, with a commitment to safe work practices.
  • What We Offer

    The chance to be part of essential roadway operations that keep communities across British Columbia safe and moving, while building your career with a company that’s been trusted for over 85 years. As part of the Emil Anderson Group of companies, you’ll join a culture where people are more than employees – they’re contributors, owners, and leaders. Here, you’ll have opportunities to learn from industry experts, grow your skills, and make a lasting impact across a diverse network of highways and roads.

  • Union hourly rate: $41.06 per hour.
  • Union benefits package.
