- Own the P&L and deliver revenue, margin and EBITDA targets
- Lead annual business planning, budgeting and KPI setting with the executive team
- Oversee project delivery from tender through closeout, including scheduling, project controls, quality and subcontractor performance
- Govern estimating, bid reviews and change orders so pricing is accurate and risk is managed
- Manage cash flow, progress billing, holdbacks and collections in partnership with Finance
- Build and develop a strong team of trades, supervisors and project managers, and grow the next generation of leaders
- Champion a zero-harm safety culture and make sure operations meet OHSA, WSIB and client requirements
- Manage fleet, heavy equipment and capital investment for utilization and lifecycle value
- Build lasting relationships with clients, municipalities, partners and the community
- Track and report performance data that drives decisions across the group
What you bring
- 10+ years of progressive leadership in construction, civil or excavation operations, including P&L accountability for organizations with $35m+ revenue
- A track record of running multi-crew, multi-site operations profitably
- Strong grounding in estimating, project management and contract administration
- Experience leading unionized and/or non-union field teams of trades, operators and professionals
- A degree or diploma in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Business or a related field (or equivalent experience)
- A safety-first mindset you can show, not just talk about
- Experience with drilling, site services or infrastructure work is a strong asset
What we offer
- Competitive base salary plus bonus, vehicle or allowance, group benefits, and RRSP matching
- The backing of a group with dedicated HR, finance, safety and technology support
- Real influence on strategy in a company that's actively growing
- Relocation support for the right candidate
