Conuma has been a huge part of our community; they have brought life back to Tumbler Ridge. They had an opportunity to purchase three mines in our area, and when they came to town, they really made a focus of putting local people back to work. It’s really revitalized the town to the point where we are heathy and stable…and looking forward to the future.

I started as an operator and worked my way up; on a drill, ran a dozer, a haul truck, a loader, and eventually I just decided maintenance was the path I wanted to pursue. I got into the maintenance side of things, and now some years later, I’m a field supervisor. I like the challenging aspect of it. I would say that it is a demanding environment where motivated people definitely succeed. It’s a place where you can learn an entire facet of skills, trades and experience. If you’re motivated and hard-working and willing to improve upon yourself and listen to those around you, anything is possible.

What I like best about Conuma is I feel they value the people who work for them. They really focus on us feeling like a team and feeling like a family, and I think that’s very important. I feel like I can grow my career with Conuma.
