Team Lead II

At Williams Engineering (WE) Canada, we brighten the lives of people in our community.

Knowing what we do reaches beyond a single project, we believe it's not only our responsibility but our core purpose to engineer cities that are safe, inclusive, and resilient.

We believe in the value of shared knowledge to better consult, create, and encourage diverse perspectives, to provide innovative solutions across the busiest cities and the most remote regions of Western and Northern Canada. We recognize that our people do much more than engineer solutions and solve our clients’ greatest challenges; they have the opportunity to impact the communities in which they live, work, and build relationships in.

In order to make a positive impact on our communities, we must start by positively impacting our own people. To us, this means providing fair compensation, training, advancement opportunities, and an open-door team environment. This also means maintaining a healthy work-life balance, which is why we offer a flexible work environment to support the unique and busy lives that our people lead.

There are many reasons why remote working helps people have more control over their work and balance their lives, that's why at Williams Engineering, we believe a remote work strategy makes business sense and helps us achieve our purpose of brightening the lives of people in our communities by reducing our carbon footprint. We operate on a fully remote option for any teammate who wants to when deemed appropriate by their manager.

We’re proud to be certified as a Great Place to Work®, recognizing our dedication to creating a supportive and engaging workplace. At Williams Engineering, we value collaboration, respect, and opportunities for growth.

If you join us, you have an opportunity to be a part of the impact that we create. We are looking for teammates who want to have an impact on the community through their work and are interested in taking on initiative to live out your Purpose through your work every day.

This role calls for an individual who is driven by Purpose and who wants to be a trailblazer in leading Purpose driven projects.
