• Subcontractor Management: Leverage deep industry knowledge to vet, negotiate with, and manage subcontractors and suppliers across various trades.
• Site Visits: Travel to various project sites across Alberta and British Columbia for pre-tender meetings and ongoing project oversight.
• Documentation: Utilize advanced software to manage blueprints, RFIs, and project documentation with high precision.

• Experience: Minimum of 8 years of experience in commercial or institutional construction within a General Contracting environment.
• Project Portfolio: Proven track record of managing and estimating multi-million dollar, multi-disciplinary projects.
• Technical Proficiency: Exceptional skills in Bluebeam (highly preferred) and other takeoff/estimating software.

We offer a competitive salary based on experience and the chance to lead high-profile institutional contracts.
