Whether you’re interested in industrial maintenance, shipbuilding, infrastructure, or the petrochemical industry, we have opportunities to match your expertise and career goals.

One of the biggest advantages of working through InAxtion? The variety of industries we work with. That means as an employee, you can quickly gain experience in different sectors, from short-term shutdown projects to long-term, large-scale developments. Here’s a flavor of the technical projects on offer.

Scheduled shutdowns

At InAxtion, we place skilled workers in major industrial plants owned by some of the world’s biggest and best-known companies. During scheduled shutdown maintenance, entire plants temporarily halt operations for safety upgrades, inspections, and repairs

Lasting 4 to 5 weeks, these projects require electricians, pipe fitters, and mechanical specialists to work together to ensure the safety and efficiency of plant operations for some of the world’s biggest energy companies.

Many of our workers start with a short-term project, such as a factory shutdown, and then transition into long-term work in other sectors. As they progress, we provide opportunities to develop their skills and transition into supervisory roles.
