The Miller Group, a subsidiary of Colas Canada, is a Canadian leader in the construction and maintenance of transportation infrastructure since 1917. We provide exceptional customer service and operational support using our time-proven construction methods and innovative technologies, alongside the highest quality products and materials. We leverage our global network to foster positive relationships that make a lasting difference in the communities where we live and work. Whether it is making your commute more efficient, keeping our communities safe, or making remote areas more accessible, at Miller we are proud to Build Greatness in everything we do.

Day in the life

As a Pipe Foreperson, you will lead daily field operations, overseeing all phases of pipe installation from excavation through backfilling. You will plan work activities, lead safety meetings, and ensure crews are equipped and aligned for the day’s work.


On site, you will direct operators and labourers, coordinate with subcontractors, and resolve field challenges related to ground conditions, utilities, and weather. You will monitor progress, enforce quality and safety standards, and communicate with project teams and inspectors to keep work on track. Your leadership will be critical in maintaining productivity, developing the crew, and delivering high‑quality underground infrastructure safely and efficiently.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and supervise an underground crew performing storm and/or sewer connections and various types of culverts
  • Interpret construction drawings, specifications, and municipal standards
  • Promote and enforce all safety policies, ensuring a hazard free work environment
  • Build, coach, and support the development of crew members

Requirements

  • 3–5 years of experience in underground construction or pipe installation
  • Valid class 5 driver’s license with clean abstract
  • Proven experience in pipe installation (storm, sanitary, culverts, catch basins)
  • Demonstrated leadership experience (Lead Hand, Senior Crew Member, etc.)
  • Working knowledge of underground utilities, trenching, shoring, and safe work procedures
  • Experience working to municipal standards (Halifax water preferred)
  • Understanding of safety requirements including confined space, excavation and trenching, and traffic control
  • Previous experience as a Foreman overseeing underground or civil construction crews
  • Ability to work at night or extended hours as needed based on project needs
