Four new job listings have appeared in Rankin Inlet, Nunavut, offering local residents opportunities ranging from an instructor position at Nunavut Arctic College to trades roles tied to a power plant upgrade. The positions are listed on Canada’s Job Bank as of September 2026.
The highest-paying opening is for a College Instructor in the Oil Burner Mechanic Program at Nunavut Arctic College’s Kivalliq Campus, with a salary range of $117,669 to $133,533 annually. That is well above the median wage of $52.20 per hour for college instructors in Nunavut.
A General Labourer position with Grizzlytrek Group, an Indigenous-owned staffing company, pays $30 an hour and is tied to a Qulliq Energy Corporation power plant upgrade in the community, including installation of a 4.4 MW generator. The posting gives priority to Inuit enrolled under the Nunavut Agreement.
South Camp Enterprises has four openings for Automotive Mechanics at $35.60 an hour. A fourth listing, for a Nurse Practitioner at Atheria Wellness paying $90 an hour, is a remote position requiring applicants to reside in Ontario, so it is not a local job, despite appearing in Rankin Inlet search results.
Job seekers in the community have more options this fall compared to recent weeks, with two entirely new positions appearing on local job listings. Nunavut has long faced a shortage of skilled tradespeople, often importing workers from southern Canada for major projects.
