Job Description

Construction Tradespeople - Remote Heritage Project (Helicopter Access)

Some projects are routine.
Others define a career.

We are assembling a small, capable crew for a

remote restoration project at the iconic Langara Lighthouse

--a site few people ever reach, and even fewer have the opportunity to work on.

This is a task-oriented, hands-on project involving rehabilitation and refinishing of a historic lighthouse tower, accessible

only by helicopter

, in one of the most striking coastal environments in Canada.

The Work

Crew members will be involved in a focused scope that includes:

Structural and finish carpentry Framing and minor reconstruction Scaffolding erection and modification Surface preparation and paint removal Protective coatings and finish work General skilled construction tasks typical of heritage restoration
This is practical, engaged work. Everyone contributes. Adaptability and pride in workmanship matter.

The Setting

Fully remote location Helicopter access only Crew quarters on site (not a camp setup) Internet access available A setting where focus, teamwork, and craft take priority
It's a rare environment that naturally filters for people who take their work seriously.

The Commitment (Important)

This role requires a

minimum commitment of a rotation of four weeks

on site.
Longer stays may be possible.

This project is best suited to individuals who are comfortable settling in, focusing on the work, and seeing a defined scope through to completion.

What's Provided

Housing in on-site crew quarters Food provisions Transportation logistics to and from site A structured, well-organized working environment
You arrive prepared to work; the essentials are in place.

Who This Suits

This role is ideal for experienced construction workers and multi-trade craftspeople who:

Are comfortable working in remote locations Have hands-on experience across multiple trades Take pride in work that will stand for decades Value projects that are uncommon, demanding, and professionally meaningful
How to Apply

Candidates are welcome to

submit a resume outlining relevant experience

.
That said,

meeting candidates in person is preferred

, and those who take the time to introduce themselves directly will be given priority consideration.

Why This Project Matters

Working on a lighthouse restoration in a remote coastal setting--by helicopter access only--is not a routine assignment. It's the kind of project people reference years later, not because it was flashy, but because it was rare and done properly.

If that resonates, we'd like to hear from you.
