About
NL’s construction market can be “74% of union members idle” one summer and “1,600 workers short” a few years later. The two sides simply couldn’t see each other.
The disconnect
June 2025 and the 2035 outlook, a few years apart. The people and the work were both here.
What we built
Job boards treat this like any other market: post an ad, collect resumes, charge per click. They don’t know a Red Seal carpenter in Marystown is free from October, or that a school in Gander needs six by the first.
How we’re building it
Newfoundland & Labrador only
No national noise. Seven regions, the communities in them, and the trades that build here.
Neutral ground
Not branded to a contractor, a union or a college. Verified employers of every size, workers of every level, partners who feed the pipeline.
Transparent by default
One published formula. The same breakdown shown to workers and employers. AI explains; it never decides.
Availability, not just openings
This is a project-cycle market. We track when people are free and when jobs start, so the match is about timing as much as trade.
Who it’s for
And the colleges, unions and offices who open it.
Workers
Journeypersons, apprentices, labourers, operators, people who've never set foot on a site. Free, always.
Employers
From a two-person renovation outfit to a megaproject GC. Verified before they post, one flat price.
Partners
Colleges, unions, safety trainers, employment offices. Region-level data and placement tools.
