The Town of Hay River, Northwest Territories, is looking for new workers to help maintain local buildings and parks as the community gets ready for the warmer spring and summer months. On March 4, 2026, the municipal government opened applications for two key positions within its Public Works Department to ensure public areas and town-owned assets are kept in good condition.

One available role is for a Senior Facilities Maintainer, which pays $36.05 per hour. This person will be responsible for the upkeep of town buildings and other property as the region transitions out of the winter season.

The town is also hiring a Facilities & Parks Supervisor at a rate of $44.21 per hour. This position focuses on overseeing the maintenance of local green spaces, recreational infrastructure, and general public works projects.

These job openings follow a push by the town council earlier this year to improve how the community manages its assets and performs regular repairs. The new hires will help the town stay on top of maintenance requirements for buildings and parks used by residents throughout the year.
