Experience in general contracting, building envelope, mechanical/electrical contracting, architectural construction, or construction service and maintenance would be an asset. A technical diploma, engineering technology, construction management, business education, or equivalent industry experience is also considered an asset.

This is an opportunity to take a key leadership role within an established, privately owned construction company, with the ability to influence operations, develop people, improve systems, and directly impact the company’s continued success.

If you are a construction leader who takes ownership, understands the numbers, solves problems, and knows how to get things done, we would like to hear from you.
