About the Opportunity

Opportunities like this are rare:
- A reputable and capable self-performing civil contractor
- A leadership team investing ahead of the curve
- A market primed for infrastructure growth
- And a role where your influence will be felt for years to come
If you are a Project Manager ready to step into something bigger, this 5-minute read, might redefine your career.
An established and rapidly scaling civil infrastructure contractor is entering a defining chapter of its growth, one shaped by major project awards, strong public sector tailwinds, and a leadership team intent on building something enduring. At this pivotal moment, they are welcoming a high calibre Project Manager to help deliver complex infrastructure works and play a meaningful role in shaping what the business becomes next.
For the right person, this is not simply a step up, it is an opportunity to grow faster, influence earlier, and leave a visible mark on Ontario’s infrastructure landscape.
Why Is This Opportunity Is Different? This business already sits comfortably among Canada’s top construction firms by revenue, yet remains entrepreneurial in spirit.

- An inspiring, values driven leadership group that invests seriously in people, systems, and the future
- A wide-spanning North American footprint, providing long term geographic and sector mobility
- A leadership team with deep bench strength, strong client relationships, and a big vision
As Project Manager, you will take ownership of civil infrastructure projects from pre construction through to close out, working closely with field leadership, clients, and internal stakeholders.
You will be trusted with real responsibility, supported by experienced leaders, and encouraged to think commercially, collaboratively, and creatively.
Key responsibilities include:
- Leading the planning, execution, and financial performance of civil infrastructure projects
- Working closely with Superintendents to manage schedule, cost, quality, and safety
- Building strong, trust based relationships with clients, consultants, and partners
- Mentoring and developing Project Coordinators and emerging talent
- Managing permits, approvals, reporting, and contractual obligations
- Identifying risks and opportunities, and implementing proactive solutions
- Contributing to continuous improvement across systems, processes, and delivery methods
