As Sr. Project Lead – Impacted Sites, you will lead a small group of technical staff delivering phased environmental site assessments and remediation projects, primarily in Saskatchewan. Typical projects are valued between $5,000 and $100,000, and you can expect to manage five or more at a time. You will combine hands‑on technical leadership with project management, overseeing team and project budgets, mentoring junior and intermediate staff, contributing to hiring and team‑building decisions, and supporting client relationships. You will be a key contributor in winning and delivering work, including Phase I/II/III Environmental Site Assessments, Corrective Action Plans, and Closure/Status Reports at contaminated sites, in accordance with the Saskatchewan Environmental Code and applicable CSA standards. You will communicate with clients ranging from technical staff to corporate directors and C‑suite executives. Depending on your background and interests, there is also an opportunity to support projects from our civil and geotechnical engineering portfolio.
