About the Opportunity
The vision behind some of the most complex projects will never be fully realized unless the gap between a client’s vision and a constructable reality is bridged. It’s simple to say, but far more difficult in practice. It’s both an art and a science and requires a skillful leader who can navigate all the challenges along the way to building great things. This is that opportunity and for someone capable, it’s the chance to be the catalyst that achieves some of Canada’s most ambitious builds and future landmarks.
You’ll lead the teams that sit at the centre of it all – the people who pull clients, consultants, trades, pre-construction and operations in one direction and keep them aligned from early planning through delivery. We are talking about high-profile ICI projects, coast to coast, with one of North America’s most established construction solutions partners. An employee-owned business, recognised as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies for over 25 consecutive years.
If you have spent your career making complicated builds work and you want the scale and stability to do it on the projects that define Canadian communities, this is worth a conversation.
About You
The successful candidate will have the following:
- You bridge vision and buildability. You have a track record of translating ambitious design intent into something that can actually be delivered on time and on budget, on large and technically demanding projects
- You lead the people in the middle. You are comfortable orchestrating clients, consultants, trades, pre-construction and operations teams, and getting alignment where it does not happen on its own
- You think in design and delivery at once. Your background spans design management and construction delivery, so you understand both sides of the handoff and where projects tend to come unstuck
- You operate at director level. You have led teams on major ICI builds and carried accountability for outcomes, not just tasks
- You raise the standard. Quality, risk and value engineering are instincts, not afterthoughts, and you bring others up to that level
About the Job
- National scale, landmark work. You would be involved in leading the planning and delivery of some of Canada’s most complex projects in the built environment, coast to coast
- An employee-owned business. As an employee-owner, your work and your judgement carry real weight in how both you and the company perform and grow
- Stability with a long-established firm and the platform to be backed to do substantial work the right way
- Genuine breadth. Hospitals, education, transit, defence, civil and more, which means variety and long-term career range rather than a single lane
- A collaborative, true-partner culture. Built on commitment, integrity and reliability, with open and transparent communication baked into how the teams actually operate
