  • PAID SICK LEAVE

    The safety and wellbeing of our staff are imperative, and we do not expect any of our employees to work if they are not 100% physically and mentally healthy.

  • EMPLOYER-SPONSORED RRSP

    Vigilant’s current RRSP program is administered through Wealthsimple’s online investing portal to give our team better autonomy in their investments.

  • UNLIMITED VACATION

    As long as work responsibilities are taken care of, our employees have the freedom to take vacations when, and how, they want.

  • TEAM BUILDING

    We consider ourselves to be somewhat of a tight-knit Vigilant ‘family’. It’s a regular occurrence for our team members to go out for lunch or visit a local watering hole for happy hour on a Friday afternoon.

  • FLEXIBLE WORK SCHEDULE

    Our staff have the option to work in office or from home at any time. We expect our staff to work in whatever ways are most comfortable and efficient for them.

  • PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

    We encourage all staff to pursue continuing education opportunities and develop their professional capabilities.

  • COMPETITIVE PAY

    In order to have the best talent, we need to compensate our team fairly. We ensure our salaries are competitive within the industry. We also offer annual raises which are based on performance and inflation.

  • CO-OPERATIVE OPPORTUNITIES

    Our students roll up their sleeves and get directly involved in the work we do, making it an incredible educational experience for them and a great help to us.

  • EMPLOYEE OWNERSHIP PLAN

    Our goal is for the employees of Vigilant to eventually take ownership of the company. We have no intentions of selling the company to a larger firm. We fully expect our team's leaders to be the next owners.

  • EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

    We offer competitive health and dental benefits packages with options for both single and family coverage. We ensure our employees are covered from day one.

  • EQUAL PAY

    Equal pay for work of equal value is one of our core values. To ensure all new members are paid equally we do not negotiate salaries when we make offers. Pay rates are based on careful consideration of skills, experience, and education of each job function. This policy allows every employee to start on the same footing as their coworkers.

  • “My favourite part is that everyone has gone above and beyond in answering my questions, which helps me get better every day. Even just getting to observe Holly and Lloyd and Ian leading a meeting and how they communicate in certain situations has shown me what I'd like to be able to do one day and how to get there.”

    - Elise Jamieson, EIT, Junior Project Engineer

  • “Working at Vigilant is a real treat, because of our people, environment, and mission. I not only feel valued within the organization, but also get a sense of purpose and contribution via my work with Vigilant.”

    - Jeremy Dyer, Cost Estimator
