Head of Programme Management, Regulatory in Toronto

Bantrel is proud to be a leading provider of Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Construction Management (EPC / EPCM) services in Canada. For 40 years we have delivered end-to-end solutions for some of Canada's most challenging and complex energy, mining, infrastructure, and nuclear projects, with an unrelenting focus on safety and quality.

Project Integration Manager supports the Project Integration Lead with the integrated delivery of the Project by improving coordination across work packages and functional disciplines. The role focuses on supporting visibility of cross-package dependencies, supporting alignment of delivery sequencing and key milestones, and facilitating coordination where Project decisions affect multiple areas of delivery, as directed by Metrolinx.

The Project Integration Manager will report to, and will operate under, the supervision and direction of the OLDP Project Integration Lead, and support integrated delivery of the Project through the following objectives:

• Support Metrolinx in strengthening cross-contract schedule alignment by supporting coordination between delivery teams and Project Controls to review key dependencies, align milestone assumptions, and develop coordinated mitigation strategies where schedule conflicts arise.
• Support improvement of visibility of cross-package dependencies by identifying and maintaining awareness of critical interdependencies between contracts that may affect infrastructure readiness, installation sequencing, or delivery milestones.
• Work with the Handover Manager and support Metrolinx in coordinating contractor handovers by assisting in the alignment of readiness requirements, sequencing, and transition milestones between delivery packages to ensure downstream activities can proceed as planned.
• Support Metrolinx in facilitating integrated mitigation and scenario planning by working with delivery teams, technical disciplines, and Project Controls to assess project-level impacts and develop coordinated responses where delivery challenges emerge.
• Work with the Field Services Director and support Metrolinx in coordination of shared access and construction logistics where construction sequencing, site access, or logistics arrangements affect multiple contractors or work packages.
• Work with the Project Interface Manager and support Metrolinx in improvement of project-level visibility of integration risks by maintaining awareness of issues that span multiple contracts or functions and ensuring these are appropriately communicated to project leadership.

Bantrel Infrastructure is a key sub-vendor to Bechtel, appointed the Delivery Partner within an integrated team with the customer, Metrolinx, for the Ontario Line Subway (OLS) Project. The project scope includes the design build, operations and maintenance of all infrastructure and rail systems associated with 15 stations and over 15km of new alignment.

Key responsibilities include:

• Identify areas for process efficiencies and work with the Technical Director and Project Integration Lead to implement improvements if necessary.
• Maintain visibility of cross-package dependencies across the Project, identifying where infrastructure readiness, construction sequencing, or installation activities intersect between contracts.
• Identify and highlight interface and integration risks to management by identifying cross-work-package technical and schedule dependencies that could impact delivery.
• Facilitate timely reporting and escalation of emerging risks to Project leadership to support informed decision-making and mitigation planning.
• Develop and align delivery sequencing across work packages by coordinating with work package teams and project controls to reconcile construction, systems installation, and access milestones.
• Facilitate integrated mitigation and scenario planning where delivery challenges or schedule pressures arise.
• Champion, in consult with the Project Handover Manager, Project-wide handover planning and execution.
• Support Construction with the coordination of shared site access and construction logistics.
• Support Project Controls by providing technical and execution insight to improve schedule integration.
• Promote a project-wide perspective on delivery decisions.

Requires bachelor's or master's degree (or international equivalent) in civil, mechanical or electrical engineering, from an accredited college or university and 15+ years of relevant experience or 19+ years of relevant work experience. Experience of developing or delivering major engineering and/or construction projects e.g. rail, airports or another area of infrastructure is essential.
