    Job description

    Red Seal Electrician (Maintenance) – Night Shift

    Build reliability where every shift matters.

    At MDI, we power one of the largest dairy operations in Winnipeg — producing Milk Protein Concentrate and Butter Products around the clock. Backed by competitive pay, strong benefits, and real opportunities to grow, this is a place where skilled tradespeople build long-term careers.

    As a Red Seal Electrician (Maintenance), you’ll play a critical role in keeping our plant running 24/7. From troubleshooting complex systems to maintaining essential equipment, your work directly impacts uptime, product quality, and team success. This is hands-on, meaningful work — where your expertise shows up every shift.

    This position will work on a continental 12-hour (6:30pm – 6:30am) night shift schedule to support a 24/7/365 operation. Call-ins and overtime due to breakdowns and scheduled maintenance or projects may be required.

    IS THIS YOU?

    • Your strong electrical troubleshooting skills + calm, focused approach mean you can quickly diagnose and resolve issues when it matters most.
    • You thrive in hands-on, fast-moving environments + adapt quickly across tasks to keep operations running smoothly.
    • Your team-first mindset + clear communication style help maintain alignment across shifts and trades.

    WHAT YOU’LL DO

    Keep Systems Running

    • Ensure reliable performance of plant equipment and electrical systems
    • Monitor and maintain utilities, control panels, and building systems
    • Complete preventive and predictive maintenance to minimize downtime

    Fix Issues Fast

    • Troubleshoot and repair electrical equipment and components
    • Respond to breakdowns and urgent repairs with speed and precision
    • Support continuous operation in a 24/7 production environment

    Install and Improve

    • Install and commission new and existing equipment
    • Support maintenance planning and scheduling activities
    • Contribute to improving reliability and efficiency across the plant

    Work Across Trades

    • Assist with mechanical repairs and general maintenance tasks
    • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to resolve issues
    • Maintain strong communication between shifts and departments

    WHAT YOU’LL BRING

    • Red Seal Electrician certification (Industrial Electrician preferred)
    • 2+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment
    • Strong troubleshooting skills across electrical and mechanical systems
    • Familiarity with PLCs (Allen Bradley), CMMS systems, and plant automation
    • Solid understanding of safety standards (Lockout, Confined Space, WHMIS) and quality systems (HACCP, GMP, ISO)
    • A flexible, team-oriented approach — with the ability to support after-hours needs when required

    KEEP PRODUCTION MOVING. BUILD A CAREER THAT LASTS.


    You’ll be part of a 24/7 operation that depends on your expertise — and supports you with strong benefits, learning opportunities, and a team that values what you bring. If you’re ready to make an impact, we’d like to hear from you.
