Supervisor, Bus Fleet Maintenance

"I started at Metrolinx in October 2006 on the overnight shift. I have found the jobs that I have been tasked with both challenging and rewarding. I wish I had come to the corporation earlier in my career. My co-workers and staff that I have supervised have always been a pleasure to work with.

On the monetary side I have always been pleased with my pay structure as I have been compensated in a competitive manner within the transit industry. I would not hesitate to recommend pursuing a career at Metrolinx as I have found through my years it’s a fair corporation to work at that truly cares about its employees."
