RAM is seeking IRATA-certified Rope Access / Swing Stage Technicians for a full-time seasonal suspended access project in Toronto, expected to run from July through November, with potential extension into December.
About the Project Work
The project will involve hands-on construction, concrete remediation, maintenance, repair, installation, and support work from swing stage and other suspended access systems.
The work will take place on a complex structure where access, safety planning, communication, and procedural discipline are critical. Workers must be comfortable operating in a high-visibility environment where professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail are essential.
