We are committed to hiring the right people - those who fit with our culture and values.

All of our job opportunities are posted on our website along with why we think you should join us, the responsibilities of the role and the qualifications we require.

For new grads, our compensation package is aligned with our full-time salaried program which is designed as 'pay for performance' structure which means that we provide a competitive base pay with the ability to earn significant rewards through programs such as annual and long-term incentives, performance bonuses and stock options.

We ensure compensation is in line with other energy companies for all positions. There are salary ranges associated with different positions and new employees are paid within that range based on their skills and experience. Salary details are further discussed with you at the interview stage. Employees who work for Suncor, but under the terms of a union agreement, would be paid in accordance with the terms of the bargaining unit.
