Toronto, Ontario, Canada LRO Staffing Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

About The Opportunity
If you're a proven Project Controls leader ready to influence the future of major Canadian infrastructure, this is your opportunity to join one of the country's most established and forward-thinking General Contractors, a firm entering the next stage of its evolution and poised for continued growth.

As Project Controls Director, you will play a pivotal role in leading cost, schedule, risk, and contract management across some of the most complex infrastructure projects in the nation. You'll bring a steady, analytical approach to developing project control frameworks while fostering collaboration and trust amongst project teams, JV partners, and client stakeholders.

This role is designed for someone who thrives in large-scale environments, a professional who has guided joint venture teams through the intricacies of major public sector programs and understands the nuances of Progressive Design Build and Alliance model contracts. You'll work alongside a highly capable leadership group that has been assembled with the purpose of delivering transformative, technically demanding projects with precision, integrity, and shared success.

This is a rare opportunity to bring your experience, vision, and leadership to an organization that truly values collaboration, innovation, and purpose-driven growth.

If you're ready to explore how your expertise in project controls and risk management can make an immediate and lasting impact, we'd love to connect.

About You
The successful candidate will have the following:

  • Depth in Scheduling, Planning, Cost & Commercial Management: You've led cross-functional controls teams that integrate cost forecasting, schedule analytics, and risk frameworks to drive milestone success
  • GC & Major Project Experience: You've delivered in the public infrastructure space, guiding multi-billion-dollar, multi-disciplinary programs with strong governance and accountability
  • Joint Venture & Collaborative Contracting Expertise: You understand the dynamic of shared risk and reward in JV environments and thrive on aligning stakeholders around transparent decision-making
  • Relationship & Team Leadership: You're known for your ability to build high-trust, high-performance teams and create synergy between technical, financial, and delivery functions
  • Passion for Growth & Impact: You seek opportunities to modernize systems, innovate processes, and mentor teams through continuous improvement

About The Job
This is not a static position; it's a chance to shape how a major builder defines project excellence going forward.

  • You'll join a busy, expanding business that continues to secure large-scale, high-profile work
  • You'll collaborate with a strategic, growth-minded leadership group that's advancing the company into its next chapter of national prominence
  • You'll become part of a people-first culture rooted in integrity, creativity, and perseverance, a company proud of its long history of building Canada's infrastructure while keeping its values front and centre
  • And you'll be supported by an organization with remarkable retention and engagement, where leaders are known for challenging, rewarding, and empowering their teams
