Current shortages exist for pipeline engineers, process engineers, integrity engineers, health and safety, business and operations support, tax, audit, human resources, IT and legal.

A wide range of jobs are available for university graduates and skilled trades alike, ranging from engineers, accountants, lawyers and project leaders to technicians (including environmental, electrical and mechanical technicians), says Kim McCaig, vice-president and chief operating officer of the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association, which represents Canada’s transmission pipeline companies.
