Toronto, Canada Colliers Project Leaders Full time

Overview:
We deliver capital project solutions to fulfill our clients’ needs across the built environment. The work we do makes a difference in communities and for the people who live there. We have a passion for it.

Our commitment to realizing our clients' vision inspires us to look beyond the immediate - to the _possibilities_ of what we can achieve together. We are 15,000 projects and counting - improving lives and helping shape the growth of sustainable, progressive and inclusive communities.

**Your role**

We are looking for an experienced and skilled individual in Furniture and Equipment (F&E) Planning who can provide leadership and guidance to clients throughout the planning process. This leadership opportunity involves taking clients from as early as the initial Functional Programming stage to opening day, ensuring that they are well-informed and confident in all aspects of F&E Planning and Design. You will have the chance to work with clients from all over the country, facilitating productive discussions and suggesting optimal solutions for their new workspaces. To excel in this role, you must possess at least 5 years of Furniture and Equipment Planning experience, as well as broader project management capabilities, and be recognized as a valued resource in the field.

As a key member of our team, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with national clients, including owners and architecture teams, to create tailored Furniture and Equipment planning solutions that meet their unique needs. By taking into account the operational requirements of each space, you will work closely with users to present various furniture and equipment options and refine planning requirements until technical and performance specifications are developed for open procurement purposes. To accomplish this, you will gather information from user sources and established Furniture and Equipment standards, as well as transfer inventory information to create detailed planning documents, including Furniture and Equipment lists and budgets. In addition, this role will also involve participating in Public Private Partnership (P3) projects, particularly those related to Healthcare, and developing output specifications for these projects.

Join our team in the Furniture & Equipment Services business unit, and become a vital contributor to our mission of creating end-to-end, customized, and high-quality project outcomes. In this role, you will have the opportunity to assist with furniture and equipment procurement, and move management/operational readiness activities, working alongside a multi-sector, non-vendor specific team with national exposure. Our unique business unit offers unparalleled opportunities for experience, growth, and job satisfaction.

**Responsibilities**:

- Lead the planning and programming of projects involving FF&E design, specifications, procurement, and implementation.
- Facilitate User Group and Senior Stakeholder design and project meetings.
- Develop furniture standards
- Develop project documentation, tender and procurement documents
- Interact with consultant teams in the development and effective implementation of project plans related to building space planning and design

- Liaise with end users and consultants on project execution
- Coordinate activities to ensure design outcomes meet stated requirements
- Work within our EPA2 equipment and furniture database as applicable
- Review drawings and specifications to assist in ensuring the awarding of contracts to qualified, cost effective and knowledgeable contractors/vendors.
- Ensure that deliverables are identified and fulfilled for our client partners
- Develop output specifications (PSOS) and provide compliance reviews and feedback on Public Private Partnership (P3) projects
- Create and lead client meetings and presentations
- Coordinate and manage showroom tours and installation visits
- Undertake deficiency reviews and project close-out activities
- Oversee furniture and equipment inventory tasks
- Assist with the development of proposal responses, including scope development and pricing

Qualifications:

- A portfolio of work demonstrating design leadership on building development and redevelopment projects involving primary experience in FF&E (particularly furniture) in healthcare or post-secondary education.
