The DNNP is within the territory of the Williams Treaties of 1923. These treaties were reaffirmed with Canada and the Province of Ontario in 2018.We are committed to growing the representation of Indigenous Peoples in our workplace and we seek to build long-term, tangible economic benefits, and career opportunities for members of Indigenous Communities and Peoples. Our business approach is guided by our values of Safety, Integrity, Collaboration, Innovation, and Excellence. These values help us to establish trust with employees, customers, and the hundreds of areas we work in across North America.
Why Nuclear?
Canada will need to triple its power production level over the next 30 years. Nuclear has a large part to play in that. Clean, low-carbon nuclear power has the lasting potential to break the world’s reliance on less sustainable alternatives and has the capacity to generate consistent sources of baseline power, which intermittent renewable sources can’t.
The growing demand for baseline power production has a massive impact (and opportunity) on employment. AtkinsRéalis relies on a specialized workforce that’s drastically growing to serve critical projects across Canada and export to the world. We are committed to building the talent required to execute industry needs.
Current Opportunities
