PLANNING FOR YOUR FUTURE IN MANUFACTURING

Are you wondering what’s next for you? With a career in manufacturing, the possibilities are endless.

Thinking about the next step in your career can be intimidating. It can be helpful to reflect on things from your past that brought you joy. For many of us, our first introduction to manufacturing and some of our fondest childhood memories come from assembling, building and creating – whether it was the possibility of an empty cardboard box as a rocket ship or playhouse – or Lego, TinkerToys, go carts and more. With some assembly required, the possibilities are endless!

85 per cent of Canadian manufacturers have trouble recruiting skilled employees, a figure that has been growing for some time. Labour and skills shortages are holding back manufacturing, and by extension, Canada’s prosperity. For you, this means that there are thousands of jobs openings waiting right now for someone with just your background.

 

WHAT IS MANUFACTURING, ANYWAY?

Manufacturing is the process of taking different materials and creating a new product, by hand or equipment. You might think of cars, furniture and windows, but do you also think of moccasins, french fries and hockey skates? There are many, many career options available in Manitoba’s biggest business sector. More than 60,000 people in Manitoba work in manufacturing. They are working in modern, automated facilities. Manitoba manufacturers are committed to a green environmental footprint, to producing products that improve the lives of Canadians and to giving you the chance for an awesome career with unlimited possibilities!
