Why work in Cold Lake?

The name “Cold” Lake might be deceiving, as it is home to the beautiful Cold Lake Provincial Park and Kinosoo Beach. There are plenty of activities to keep busy in both the Winter and Summer such as: Fishing, Camping, Hunting, Quadding, Water Skiing, Wind Surfing, Canoeing, Sailing/Boating, and Wildlife Viewing (home to over 200 bird species), to name a few.

Kinosoo Beach was voted one of Canada’s top 25 beaches by Canadian Geographic Magazine; it is very similar to the serene atmosphere of Sylvan Lake Beach.

There are plenty of retail and shopping accommodations. As well, Lloydminster is only about an hour and a half away. Living expenses tend to be much cheaper than that of Fort McMurray.

Bureau Veritas Canada is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to an inclusive, barrier-free recruitment and selection process and work environment. If you are contacted for a job opportunity, please advise Human Resources of any accommodations that are required. Any information received relating to accommodations will be treated as confidential.
