When people hear you work at St Marys Cement, they light up. It is a place where people are genuinely proud to work, and in the towns where our plants operate, our reputation is well known.
When John Lind and Alfred Rogers broke ground on the St Marys Cement plant in 1912, they built something that was meant to last. More than a century later, the people who run this company are proof that they were right. Not just the structures that carry our cement, but the careers built on either side of the kiln.
At St Marys Cement, careers are not measured in months. They are measured in decades, in the mentors who shaped them, in the roles that grew with the person filling them, and in the families who have passed a love of this work from one generation to the next. Our VC Way, the shared culture connecting every person across our network, is what makes this kind of continuity possible.
We are looking for people who want to build something that lasts, and we have openings across the full range of what it takes to run one of North America’s most established cement networks. From operations and skilled trades to engineering, logistics, and more, every role at St Marys Cement comes with hands-on training and mentorship from day one.
The people who have built the longest careers here started exactly where you are now. Browse the careers portal, find the position that fits where you want to go, and take the first step toward work that does not stop feeling meaningful after the first year.
It’s been a quick 40 years. I cannot believe it’s going to be 40 years. I had the pleasure of learning the job from the guys before me, and I take pride in passing down that knowledge to the guys just starting.
I feel like there’s lots of places I could go in my career. I haven’t hit the ceiling yet here, which is fantastic. The plant is actually really important to our community. It provides a lot of jobs, and a lot of people I know work here.
The people here are definitely a huge role in why it’s so good to work here. The people are great to work with.
It's just a really good work environment. I am proud to say that I am a fourth-generation worker here, and I think that is very cool because you don't see a lot of that nowadays. It’s rare.
Safety and Health is the first principle of Our VC Way, and it is stated without qualification: people’s Safety and Health come first, before results.
Our Global Health and Safety Policy commits us to identifying, eliminating, and addressing health and safety risks across all work and processes, for employees and contractors alike. Critical Risk Protocols and Life-saving Rules apply to every site, and compliance is non-negotiable. Occupational health and safety training is provided as part of every employee’s professional development, building a skill set that grows with a career rather than stopping after onboarding.
Beyond safety, we invest in the long-term health and well-being of our people through a total rewards package built to support you and your family at every stage of life and career. Biometric screenings, flu vaccination clinics, wellness assessments, Employee Assistance Program (EAP) support for mental health, and on-site wellness resources are available across our Canadian and US locations. And we have fun putting Safety and Health at the forefront of our operations! Our teams run and participate in health challenges that get everyone involved, like when a 30-day team movement challenge across the network drew 472 participants who collectively logged more than 147 million steps. These are not just perks added to a job description, but they are the expression of a company that understands its people are its most important long-term investment.
Since 1912, the communities surrounding our plants have been far more than a backdrop to our work. They are where our people live, raise families, and spend their time outside of the plant. When you join St Marys Cement, you join those communities too.
Our teams coach local hockey and sponsor youth tournaments that bring families together across the region. We build homes with Habitat for Humanity, stock shelves at local food banks, and join volunteer events to address pressing community needs alongside hundreds of regional volunteers. Our teams have climbed all 1,776 steps of the CN Tower in support of the World Wildlife Fund. Across the Votorantim Cimentos North America (VCNA) network, our businesses have contributed approximately $1.6 million USD over five years to causes centred on health and wellness, veterans and emergency services, and education.
The Sustainable Legacy principle at the heart of Our VC Way asks each of us to contribute to the development of the people and communities where we operate. At St Marys Cement, that has never been a corporate initiative. It is simply what people who care about where they live choose to do when they also happen to work there.
