What employers posted for this occupation across Canada, from Job Bank’s open data, and the employers approved to hire foreign workers for it. Counts and medians of what was posted, nothing more.
625 vacancies, 72% full time, 37% permanent, 77% relayed from other job boards. Over the last twelve months: 3,131 postings, about 261 a month.
Medians are of the pay written in the postings, hourly and salaried postings separately, never converted. Half of postings paid more, half less.
TEER 4: usually a high school diploma or several weeks of training. Express Entry programs count work in TEER 0 to 3 only, so time in this occupation would not count toward them. Provincial streams and other permits may still apply.

Employers issued a positive labour market impact assessment for this occupation across Canada, as Employment and Social Development Canada publishes them each quarter. An approval is a position on an LMIA in that quarter: not a vacancy today, not a promise to hire you, and not a work permit. The department leaves out employers named after a person, so the list is not complete.
