The Opportunity – Build the Future with Us

As a Sustainable Infrastructure Lead, you will play a pivotal role in shaping how infrastructure projects across Quebec (and nationally) respond to the realities of climate change, resilience, and sustainable development.

Working closely with public‑ and private‑sector clients, multidisciplinary project teams, and national sustainability leaders, you will guide the application of the Envision framework across the full infrastructure lifecycle — from early planning and stakeholder engagement through design, construction, and long‑term operations. Based ideally in Montreal, you will support projects within Quebec while contributing to the growth and consistency of Envision services across Canada.

This role offers the opportunity to influence decision‑making on high‑impact infrastructure projects, mentor emerging sustainability professionals, and help WSP continue to lead the market in sustainable infrastructure delivery.

• Diploma, Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Architecture, Engineering, Environmental Studies or a related field
• Envision Sustainability Professional (ENV SP) credential in good standing; Envision Verifier is an asset
