This platform was built with over 30 years of real experience in the field — training, problem-solving, and operating equipment in every situation you can imagine. I’ve spent my entire life on job sites, in quarries, on mines, and running machines day in and day out. And over those decades, I learned a lot — but one thing always bothered me:
As an owner-operator, it was almost impossible to get noticed.
Anytime I was looking for work, I got buried under all the static and noise of the internet. It didn’t matter where I posted: Kijiji, Indeed, LinkedIn, Craigslist — none of these platforms have a section dedicated just to heavy equipment operators. We always got lost behind contractors, general labour, corporate jobs, and everything else.
There was nowhere for an operator to simply say: “Here’s my machine. Here’s my skill. Here’s where I’m available.” And actually get seen.
So I built the solution myself.
Pro Operator Network was created so operators can finally get noticed, get work, and get paid what they’re worth.
Because here’s the reality of this industry: sometimes you’re already on a job site, and someone walks over and says, “Hey, can you move this rock?” or “Can you dig this hole while you’re here?” You save them money and you make money — simple, quick, and efficient.
But these opportunities — the small jobs, the quick tasks, the homeowner projects, the “can’t run the machine I rented” posts — all get scattered across the internet where almost nobody sees them.
I built this network to bring all of that into one place.
One platform dedicated 100% to heavy equipment operators — finally.
Every small job. Every big job. Every contractor who needs help. Every homeowner who needs a machine run safely. Every operator who wants steady work. All in one place. All focused. All easy to find.
Because when everything is centralized, operators make more money, homeowners and contractors save money, jobs get done faster and safer, and the whole industry starts working the way it should.
This platform isn’t just for small jobs — it’s for everything: landscaping, excavation, grading, trenching, construction, full-scale projects, and major contractor needs. It’s built for the people who run the machines, who know the work, and who finally deserve a place where their skills are recognized.
And it's about time they did.
To create a focused, operator-first community where operators make money, homeowners and contractors save money, and real work gets done efficiently by people who know what they're doing. This industry deserves a platform built by someone who has lived it — not someone who guessed at it.
