Calgary

We specialize in hiring for every major packaging category, from rigid plastics and flexible film to corrugated, paperboard, aluminum, glass, and aseptic. Our recruiters understand the skills each process requires and connect you with candidates who can make an immediate impact.

Expand Your Calgary Facility

Calgary hosts significant containerboard and corrugated activity from Cascades and other producers serving Alberta’s food, agriculture, and retail sectors, making it a center for corrugated, folding carton, and sustainable packaging in western Canada.

The sheer scale of the region's agricultural and retail supply chains places massive pressure on local packaging operations to maintain continuous output. Whether your facility is optimizing heavy-duty corrugated lines or integrating sustainable packaging for massive food processing plants, managing this immense volume requires highly specialized technical talent. Facilities need leaders who can drive continuous improvement, upgrade legacy equipment, and handle rapid capacity shifts safely and efficiently.

Sourcing professionals capable of managing these high-stakes industrial environments can quickly exhaust localized hiring networks. To overcome regional talent shortages, TQR deploys a relentless national recruitment strategy. We leave no stone unturned, searching locally, across Alberta, and throughout Canada to bring proven packaging engineers, maintenance experts, and technical plant managers directly to your facility to drive efficiency and reduce costly downtime.
