Job description

There’s no pledge more important than the one we make to look after our environment, and we’re committed to helping you do exactly that.

Join us as we strive to ensure a sustainable future for our communities and the world we live in.

Become part of our global network of skilled engineers, scientists, auditors, planners and environmental specialists, all working together to leave this world better than we found it.

Who are we looking for?

GHD has an opportunity for a Project Manager to join our Environmental Assessment and Remediation Group. The Project Manager leads day-to-day planning and execution for assigned projects, using standardized PMO tools and repeatable workflows. The role coordinates teams, manages scope/schedule/cost controls, and prepares compliant deliverables for verification and approval.

Hybrid Work Arrangement: Our workplace thrives on a hybrid model, combining in-office collaboration and flexibility. Join us in the office, 3 days a week, to contribute, connect, and excel in our vibrant environment. The role can be based in any of our offices in Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, or Vancouver.

Working with an energetic and high performing team, this position offers a variety of work and will see you involved in:

  • Initiate and plan projects using disciplined project management practices (scope confirmation, WBS, schedule, risk planning, onboarding).
  • Manage execution and controls: track progress, issues, changes, and dependencies; maintain project records in the project workspace for traceability.
  • Coordinate communications and reporting cadence; maintain deadline control for regulatory and client reporting obligations.
  • Manage vendors and subcontractors under defined procedures; ensure work plans and outputs follow required verification pathways.
  • Support digital field data collection and standardized reporting workflows; contribute to dashboards and evidence packs used for program and project visibility.
  • Prepare deliverables and ensure they are ready for check/review and director approval prior to external use.
  • Escalate risks and deviations early using leading indicators and agreed thresholds to support ‘no surprises’ delivery.
  • Close out projects with complete documentation, lessons learned, and handoff as required

What you will bring to the team:

  • Demonstrated project management experience in delivery environments requiring strong compliance and documentation.
  • Ability to manage scope, schedule, cost, and risk with a structured approach.
  • Strong coordination skills across field/office resources and cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills; capable of producing and managing recurring reporting deliverables.
  • Background in Upstream field support programs (basin/state regulatory environments) and/or mining closure and waste management programs.
  • Familiarity with structured delivery frameworks that embed assurance (verification, documentation, audit trails) into workflows.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Engineering, Geology, Environmental Science or related field
  • PE or PG will be highly regarded
  • 8+ years of experience in environmental consulting including environmental remediation and site assessments, report writing, data management & interpretation, project coordination, and managing clients
  • OSHA 40-hour HAZWOPER certification a plus
  • Ability and willingness to travel client meetings is required
  • Experience with repeatable, high-volume programs where standardization and automation are used to improve efficiency.
  • Familiarity with analytics dashboards and data management practices that support compliance tracking and decision-making.
