In this role, you will be seconded into a dynamic real estate and facilities environment, reporting to the Senior Manager, Construction.

This position is central to bringing physical spaces to life.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Project Delivery and Design leads throughout all phases to ensure alignment with project objectives, governance, and stakeholder communications.
• Health, Safety & Compliance: Ensure site safety standards are met and maintained in accordance with OH&S regulations and project requirements through effective contractor oversight.
• Project Close-Out & Handover : Manage close-out deliverables including as-builts, O&M manuals, occupancy permits, and transition to operations and facilities teams.
• Continuous Improvement: Contribute to the evolution of construction processes, standards, and best practices to enhance delivery efficiency and overall project outcomes.

• Experience: 8+ years in Construction Management, ideally with direct Owner’s Representative or client-side experience
• Education: Post-secondary degree or diploma in Architecture, Engineering, Construction Management, or related field
  • P.Eng, CET, or Architectural Technologist designation is an asset
