The Opportunity

Shape the World Around You - Join our Nuclear subsector, a cornerstone of WSP's ERI (Energy, Resources & Industry) sector, supporting clients in Canada's thriving nuclear industry.

You'll establish and maintain the Performance Measurement Baseline (PMB), integrate EPC activities, and deliver clear, data-driven insights that keep projects on track. Your expertise in nuclear environments-regulatory compliance, lifecycle planning, and risk management-will shape outcomes that matter. From proposal development to scenario modeling, you'll influence major decisions while mentoring future leaders. Join WSP's ERI team and fast-track your career on groundbreaking initiatives in refurbishment, decommissioning, and new builds.

• Lead project controls for multi-disciplinary EPC/EPCM nuclear projects, ensuring alignment with client objectives and regulatory standards.
• Develop and manage integrated schedules, budgets, and resource plans using tools like P6, InEight, and Oracle.
• Provide expert guidance on change management, risk mitigation, and scenario modeling for nuclear proposals and execution plans.
• Collaborate with project directors, construction partners, and multidisciplinary teams to deliver best-for-project decisions.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a strategic mindset.
• Familiarity with nuclear regulatory frameworks and EPC lifecycle integration.
• Exceptional organizational skills and ability to lead high-performing teams.
• Must be able to obtain Security Clearance.
