We have partnered with an established Western Canadian Civil Construction and Industrial services organization to recruit a VP, Strategic Growth Energy & Mining.

This is not a traditional business development role.

Our client delivers complex projects across energy, oil and gas, mining and infrastructure, and they''re looking for someone who has already done what this role requires elsewhere, grown a business, region, market or service line, and built a $50M$100M project portfolio from relationships rather than tender lists.

If you have a network across Western Canadian energy, oil and gas and mining and you''re ready to build something with real ownership behind it, this is worth a conversation.

This isn''t a support role in the growth story, it''s a lead role.

You''ll have direct reports, you''ll report directly into the Senior Operations Executive Team, and you''ll be in the room when strategy gets set, not briefed on it after the fact.

This is a role to bring someone into the boardroom, and it comes with an excellent base salary and a strong total compensation package to match. RESPONSIBILITIES Develop and execute a strategic growth plan across energy, oil and gas and mining Identify major capital projects, maintenance programs and long-term contracting opportunities Build and manage a qualified portfolio of opportunities valued between $50M and $100M Establish and strengthen senior-level relationships with asset owners, operators, mining companies, engineering firms, EPC contractors and other industry partners Position the organization early in the project lifecycle, ahead of formal tender Develop strategic account plans that drive repeat business and long-term client relationships Evaluate opportunities based on strategic fit, profitability, probability of award, execution risk and available resources Work closely with executive leadership, estimating,
