First-Year Apprentice Tilesetter (Entry Level)
Building the life you want starts with acquiring skills that are in demand.
As a Red Seal tradesperson, career potential is unlimited.
It all starts with apprenticeship; a unique opportunity to earn and learn while building your career.
British Columbia Construction Association (BCCA) Apprenticeship Services is launching a major industry-wide drive supporting small and medium construction employers to hire and register first-year apprentices.
This province-wide recruitment drive is administered by BCCA as part of the BCCA Apprentices Services campaign. BCCA is launching a 22-month campaign funded by the Government of Canada’s Apprenticeship Service to enable small and medium-sized employers in BC’s construction industry to hire and register first-year apprentices. As part of the service to employers, BCCA will build a pool of qualified jobseekers, provide culture training via its Builders Code program, and mentorship support through its new Building Builders initiative. Additional apprenticeship supports, advice, and resources will also be made available to successful job applicants.

About the Opportunity
British Columbia has an increasing demand for skilled tradespeople, resulting in rewarding employment opportunities. As a first-year apprentice, you will be starting a career path towards obtaining your SkilledTradesBC trade certification and Red Seal endorsement. This is a great opportunity to get hands-on training while receiving a competitive wage for your work!
A typical day as a tilesetter could include working on commercial or residential new construction, renovation projects, or civil infrastructure projects. Essentially, tilesetter professionals are relied on to prepare, install, service, replace, and repair tile surfaces in indoor and outdoor environments.
Day-to-day as an apprentice you could be:
Identifying, measuring, cutting, and assembling various types of tile and stone products
Levelling and prepping floor, wall, kitchen, bath, pool, and spa surfaces
Using hand and power tools including drills, saws, hammers, levels, etc.
Accurately reading a tape measure
Working on the ground, often kneeling for long periods
Performing physical tasks such as site setup, unloading heavy materials, and cleaning
About You
BCCA Apprenticeship Services is looking for applicants interested in pursuing a career in construction as a first-year apprentice tilesetter.

Communicate, work well with others, and follow directions well
Have good dexterity and like to work with your hands

Like to solve problems and build solutions
Are physically fit with stamina for manual labour and heavy lifting
Have experience using hand and power tools
Are willing to follow safety guidelines at all times

The Benefits of Apprenticeship
An apprenticeship offers a pathway to a successful career in construction. You will earn an income while gaining work-based training hours, education, and certification.
