Why Work at AltaLink?
Company Overview
We power Alberta. Our transmission lines deliver electricity to millions of Albertans 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When you’re on our team, you’re supporting our province’s homes, farms, businesses and industries by providing safe, reliable and cost-effective service. Whether working in the field or in the office, every AltaLinker contributes to keeping the lights on.
As a member of the Berkshire Hathaway Energy family, we are part of a global group of companies delivering sustainable electricity and utility services to customers worldwide. Our exceptional customer service, commitment to the environment, and world-class safety record makes us a leader in our industry.
Today, the transmission system is more important than ever. As we connect new sources of renewable energy to the grid and support Alberta’s energy transition to net-zero emissions, AltaLink’s transmission system is the backbone of the changing electricity system. With our head office in Calgary, and regional offices in Greater Edmonton, Red Deer and Lethbridge, we have central and southern Alberta covered.
