Company Description We exist to build a better world.

Our vision is to emerge as Canada’s premier technical builder, distinguished by our relentless pursuit of innovation ,

collaboration , and sustainability in all that we do.

We are

100 per cent employee-owned , and our success is driven by our employee owners. We prioritize people, purpose, and performance in all that we do. When the company thrives, you benefit directly. When everyone is invested - literally - it builds a community of accountability, pride and mutual support.

We look for team members who are gritty ,

accountable , and driven -

with a mindset rooted in initiative and purpose , you think like an entrepreneur and build strong, trusting relationships through clear communication and thoughtful dialogue, even in challenging conversations.

We are Chandos. Chandos is seeking a Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of complex transportation infrastructure projects throughout Western Canada.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys staying close to the work and collaborating with field operations, clients, consultants, and preconstruction teams to drive project success from start to finish. While based in Calgary, project-related travel will be required.

This is not a purely office-based role. We are looking for a builder who understands project execution, can anticipate and manage risk, and is comfortable spending time in the field supporting construction teams.

Lead the planning and execution of transportation infrastructure projects from mobilization through closeout

Partner closely with field leadership, preconstruction teams, subcontractors, consultants, and clients

Manage project budgets, schedules, forecasting, procurement, and contract administration

Develop and maintain accurate cost reports, cash flow projections, and project forecasts

Monitor project performance and proactively identify cost, schedule, and execution risks

Support change management, claims, and client communications





Ensure projects are delivered safely, profitably, and in accordance with Chandos quality standards

Collaborate with superintendents and project teams to optimize construction sequencing and project execution

Qualifications

4+ years of Project Management experience with a General Contractor not self-development

Experience delivering bridges, LRT infrastructure, transit stations/hubs, or other complex transportation structures

Proven experience managing project forecasts, budgets, cost control, schedules, risk, and change management

Strong understanding of how construction sequencing impacts project cost, productivity, and risk

Experience working directly with clients, consultants, field operations, and subcontractors

Experience with self-perform crews, structural concrete, structural steel, or complex staged construction is an asset

Willing and able to travel up to 40-50% as required

Important: Read Before Applying This role is focused on complex transportation structures , including bridges, LRT infrastructure, transit stations, and transit hubs.

This is likely not a fit if your experience is primarily in:

Highway paving

Asphalt production and placement

Road resurfacing or road widening

Underground municipal servicing

Linear road construction with limited structural scope

We're specifically seeking project managers who have successfully managed the financial and operational delivery of bridge, transit, and major transportation infrastructure projects , not high-volume roadway paving programs.

equitable, and inclusive culture and this includes our recruitment and hiring process.
