Openings include Manager of Planning, Development Planner II, Operator – Drainage Dig Crew/Roads, Maintenance Worker – Parks and Open Spaces, Human Resources Business Partner, and Supervisor of GIS. Complete details and application links are posted on the City of Spruce Grove careers page.
Spruce Grove’s population reached 44,575 in 2025, up 5,507 residents or 14.6 percent from 2021, which drives ongoing demand for planning, infrastructure, and public works staff. The city’s industrial parks are home to more than 250 businesses, and the City-owned South Century Industrial Park has only two lots remaining, pointing to continued development pressure.

Municipalities like Spruce Grove are competing for qualified candidates across technical, professional, and trades roles.
