In 2014, Raskto Korac joined Bouchier at Suncor Firebag. Since then, his career has been a testament to hard work, adaptability, and the power of mentorship.
Starting as a labourer, Raskto was quick to embrace new learning opportunities. Over the years, he developed his skills in equipment operation and, in 2024, stepped into a new role as an HSE Specialist. Reflecting on his career growth, he acknowledges the strong mentorship he has received along the way.
“There have been so many leaders who took the time to direct my development,” Raskto shares. “Having leaders that care about their workers and are able to support their development is key.”
Transitioning into his HSE role came with its challenges, particularly adjusting to a new worksite and a division with a different scope. However, he credits the support of his leadership team for making the shift a successful one. “The transition from operations into HSE on a new site was a big change. However, I was able to make the change thanks to a leadership team that was as invested in my success as I was.”
For those looking to grow within Bouchier, Raskto offers some valuable advice: “Reach out to your leaders on site and have a conversation with them about your goals. Ask them what they’d like to see from you in order to support your growth within the company. Be open to different opportunities, whether it’s an opportunity on a different site or a role you might not have seen yourself in.”
Raskto’s journey exemplifies how dedication, mentorship, and a willingness to embrace new challenges can pave the way for career advancement at Bouchier. His story serves as an inspiration for anyone looking to grow within the company and take their career to the next level.
Keep up the great work, Raskto!
