Our early talent programs provide youth with opportunities to make a big impact and play a role in building a sustainable, safe, and integrated transit network.

What is Metrolinx’s Early Career Development Program?

Our Capital Projects Group workforce is made up of driven and dedicated professionals who care deeply about working together to deliver infrastructure and make a positive impact in our communities.

Program participants will join us as permanent, full-time employees to complete four 12-month rotations within CPG divisions (Rapid Transit, GO & UP) for structured, professional development, mentorship, and networking. Participants benefit from experience in various teams, working through the Metrolinx project lifecycle, enabling the development of skills and capabilities to effectively lead large scale transit-related projects.

Participants interested in pursuing their professional designations and / or PMP accreditation will have the opportunity to gain professional experience and be fast-tracked to a Project Manager role within CPG upon completion of the rotational program.
