Job Description
We are building capability in formwork on all concrete, not general civil. We seek someone who understands how concrete structures are built, not just how they are scheduled.
Travel will be frequent.
The Role
You will lead or support delivery of:
Water retaining structures
Bridges
LRT platforms
Transit structures
With a focus on:
Formwork systems
Discuss formwork strategy on all self‑perform projects
Formwork evaluation and selection
Concrete sequencing and execution
Field‑driven constructability
Oversee formwork scope on multiple projects
Train and mentor field foreman and superintendents
Inform division leaders on overall formwork progress and risk profile
This is a hands‑on technical leadership role, not a coordination role.
What Sets This Role Apart
This is not a traditional PM/Super role.
We Are Specifically Looking For Someone Who
Has personally been involved in formwork and concrete assembly in the field
Can walk a site and immediately identify sequencing risks
Understands how structures actually go together under real constraints
Qualifications
Proven experience delivering concrete structures (ideal experience includes bridges, transit, or similar)
Deep exposure to formwork systems and concrete sequencing
Background from:
Self‑perform general contractor, or
Concrete/formwork subcontractor
Ability to move between:
Field execution
Planning and problem‑solving
You Likely Will Not Be a Fit If
Your experience is primarily utilities, paving, or linear works
You have managed projects without being close to field execution
Your focus has been strictly planning/scheduling vs. build methodology
Perks
Competitive wages
Well‑rounded employer‑paid benefits program including health, dental, vision care and employee assistance program
RRSP matching program
Educational assistance for employees who wish to pursue job‑performance enhancing education
Recognition and annual salary reviews program
Leadership conferences that allow employees to connect and collaborate
