• Ensure compliance with quality standards and internal practices
  

• Contribute to the development of skills and the improvement of the team
  

• Provide mobilizing leadership focused on rigor, listening, and collaboration
  

• Participate in the continuous improvement of project management processes
  

Desired Profile

• University degree in civil engineering (or technical degree with equivalent experience)
  

• 10 years of experience or more in civil project management
  

• Strong technical credibility and ability to intervene strategically
  

• Coaching-type leadership: human, mobilizing, unifying
  

• Proficiency with digital tools: TPL (estimation) and MS Project (scheduling)
  

• Collaborative spirit and ability to manage with listening, rigor, and humility
  

• Experience in a financially transparent and autonomous environment
  

Offered Benefits

• Flexible schedule around 40 hours/week (no hour banking)
  

• Occasional remote work allowed based on season and performance
  

• Comprehensive group insurance (medications, dental care, paramedical)
  

• Health account: $500 (individual) or $1,000 (family)
  

• 4 weeks of vacation: 2 paid weeks during the holidays + 2 floating
  

• Human approach based on trust (no rigid bank of sick days)
  

• Environment based on autonomy and collective excellence
