Senior Project Manager - ICI

Location: Edmonton, AB
Compensation: base salary, profit sharing, 6% RRSP match, strong benefits, 4 weeks’ vacation + Christmas closure

A major Canadian general contractor is looking to add a Senior Project Manager to its Edmonton team for a large-scale institutional building project valued at $100M+.

This is a senior delivery role for someone who has already managed complex building construction projects from preconstruction through closeout. The successful candidate will bring strong commercial judgment, owner-facing confidence, and the ability to lead internal teams, consultants, subcontractors, and site leadership through the full project lifecycle.

This is not an owner-side, developer-side, civil-only, or industrial-only role. The key requirement is clear: you must have project management experience with a general contractor on major building construction projects.

You will take a leadership role on a high-profile institutional project in Edmonton, working with an established construction team and a strong project delivery framework behind you.

This role is well-suited to a Senior Project Manager who enjoys being close to the work: managing schedule, budget, client communication, subcontractor performance, change management, project reporting, and the overall commercial success of a major build.

You will be responsible for driving the project forward while supporting a team that may include Project Managers, Project Coordinators, Superintendents, consultants, and trade partners.

You will lead the delivery of a major building project, including:

• Managing the project from preconstruction through construction, closeout, and warranty

• Leading client, consultant, and subcontractor communication

• Overseeing budget, forecasting, billing, change management, and project profitability

• Working closely with the Superintendent to manage schedule, critical path, and look-aheads

• Reviewing RFIs, change orders, subcontracts, scopes of work, and project documentation

• Leading project meetings and maintaining clear reporting on risks, schedule, cost, and quality

• Mentoring and supporting project staff

• Ensuring safety, quality, environmental, and contractual requirements are met

The main requirement is experience delivering building projects for a general contractor.

Strong candidates will bring:

• Senior Project Manager or experienced Project Manager background with a general contractor

• Proven experience on commercial, institutional, civic, healthcare, education, recreation, or other major building projects

• Experience managing large, complex projects, ideally in the $100M+ range

• Strong understanding of contracts, subcontracts, project financials, scheduling, RFIs, change orders, and closeout

• Ability to work with owners, consultants, trades, superintendents, and internal leadership

• Confidence leading meetings, managing risk, and making decisions in a fast-paced project environment

• Familiarity with tools such as MS Project, Primavera P6, Bluebeam, Procore/Plangrid, SAP, or similar platforms is an asset

The package includes:

• Base salary

• Profit sharing program

• 6% RRSP matching

• 4 weeks’ vacation

• Additional Christmas closure week

• Full benefits

• Free parking

• Health/wellness spending support

• Strong dental and prescription coverage

This is a strong fit for someone who has built their career with general contractors and wants to play a senior role on a major Edmonton building project.

You may currently be a Senior Project Manager, Project Manager ready for a larger mandate, or a major-project construction leader looking for a long-term opportunity with a respected national contractor.

If your background is in general contracting and building construction, we would be interested in speaking with you.
