Play a key role in delivering Ground Engineering projects for our Earth & Environment (E&E) clients across BC & Yukon, supporting complex work related to geotechnical investigations, earthworks, foundations, and critical infrastructure development.
As an Project Controls Analyst, you will be a trusted partner to Project Managers and technical teams, strengthening cost control, forecasting accuracy, and schedule performance across a diverse portfolio of ground engineering programs. Your work will directly support informed decision-making, risk mitigation, and successful project outcomes in a fast-paced consulting environment.
You'll apply your strong analytical skills and financial acumen to monitor budgets, track performance, and identify emerging risks early, while helping project teams navigate rebaselining, change management, and performance recovery when required. Working closely with geotechnical engineers, project managers, and multidisciplinary stakeholders, you will ensure project controls practices align with contractual, regulatory, and internal requirements.
In this role, you'll also contribute to the growth of our project controls capability by mentoring junior team members, enhancing reporting and dashboards, and supporting consistent, best-practice approaches across the portfolio.
