At McGill, our purpose is to rebuild the soils that support life on our planet. We turn biodegradable waste into high-quality compost that helps restore depleted soils and supports a cleaner, greener future. Using advanced composting technology, we handle a wide range of organic materials—safely, reliably, and with purpose. We believe real environmental change should benefit people, the planet, and the economy.
Driven by our core values of Excellence, Integrity, Accountability, and Collaboration, we are committed to fostering a culture of continuous improvement and creating a rewarding, safe, and empowering workplace for all. When you join McGill, you're joining a team that values hard work, innovation, and doing what's right—for our colleagues, our customers, our communities, and the Earth.
We are seeking a reliable and attentive Night-Shift Security and Fire Prevention Specialist to serve as the guardian of our facility during non-operational hours. This part-time role is crucial in ensuring the safety and security of the premises when the plant is quiet. You will maintain a physical presence on site, acting as the first line of defense against potential hazards.
Your day (or rather, your night) will involve conducting hourly facility walkthroughs to identify and mitigate fire risks, particularly those associated with compost pit activity. You will monitor environmental conditions for early warning signs of combustion, such as unusual heat, smoke, or odors. While the work requires independence and vigilance, you will be part of a larger mission to contribute positively to a cleaner, healthier, and sustainable environment.
This role is conducted in both indoor and outdoor areas of the facility. You will be exposed to the realities of a composting operation, including dust, dirt, mud, loud noise, strong odors, and heavy machinery in proximity. The terrain may be uneven, soft, or shifting, and you may encounter extreme weather conditions. Low or variable lighting and slip, trip, or fall hazards are expected. To ensure your safety, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including safety harnesses, hard hats, high-visibility apparel, and issued lighting devices will be provided and must be worn as required.
Interested candidates are encouraged to apply directly to join our team. We value applicants who demonstrate a commitment to safety, accountability, and the environmental mission of McGill Environmental Systems.
