• Lead annual business planning, budgeting and KPI setting with the executive team
• Oversee project delivery from tender through closeout, including scheduling, project controls, quality and subcontractor performance

• Manage cash flow, progress billing, holdbacks and collections in partnership with Finance
• Build and develop a strong team of trades, supervisors and project managers, and grow the next generation of leaders
• Champion a zero-harm safety culture and make sure operations meet OHSA, WSIB and client requirements
• Manage fleet, heavy equipment and capital investment for utilization and lifecycle value
• Build lasting relationships with clients, municipalities, partners and the community
• Track and report performance data that drives decisions across the group

 

What you bring

• Experience leading unionized and/or non-union field teams of trades, operators and professionals
• A degree or diploma in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Business or a related field (or equivalent experience)
• A safety-first mindset you can show, not just talk about

What we offer

• Competitive base salary plus bonus, vehicle or allowance, group benefits, and RRSP matching
• The backing of a group with dedicated HR, finance, safety and technology support
• Real influence on strategy in a company that’s actively growing
• Relocation support for the right candidate
