The Opportunity

Your Impact Starts Here - Step into a leadership role where your expertise shapes Canada's most complex energy and heavy industrial projects. As Project Director, you'll lead Project Managers, Area Managers, Engineering Managers, and project engineers-guiding stakeholders with confidence and clarity.

Your Impact
  • Lead planning and execution of multi-phase, complex mining and heavy industrial projects across Canada.
  • Develop and implement Project Management Plans, including risk, safety, quality, and communication strategies.
  • Oversee project budgets, schedules, and governance to ensure delivery on time and within scope.
  • Mentor and guide engineering managers and project teams to achieve technical excellence and client satisfaction.
  • Build strong client relationships and identify opportunities for growth and innovation.

The Skills That Set You Apart
  • 20+ years of progressive project management experience in mining and heavy industrial sectors.
  • Proven success managing EPCM projects and delivering on time and on budget.
  • Engineering degree (P.Eng. designation preferred) or technical diploma; PMP certification an asset.
  • Expertise in project governance, risk management, and stakeholder engagement.
  • Proficiency in MS Office and project management tools; bilingual (English/French) is an asset.
  • A collaborative leader who thrives in complex, multidisciplinary environments.
