This is not an office-based Project Manager position. We are looking for an experienced, hands-on construction skilled who knows how to run a commercial restoration project because they have done the work themselves. You will be on site working alongside the crew: directing and performing the work, training staff, solving problems and ensuring projects are completed safely, efficiently and to Shield's standards. Responsibilities Lead and work alongside commercial estimators and field crews.
Take ownership of day-to-day project execution from mobilization through completion.
Plan and coordinate manpower, materials, equipment, sequencing, and daily site activities.
Read drawings, specifications and scopes of work and translate them into field execution.
Direct and train field employees to maintain productivity, safety, and workmanship standards.
Identify and resolve site issues to keep projects moving.
Coordinate with management, clients, consultants, engineers, subcontractors, and suppliers.
Monitor project progress, labour and material usage and communicate changes or concerns.
Maintain safe, organized, and professional job sites.
Complete required project documentation.
Assist with project planning, estimating, take-offs, and change orders as required.
Physically perform the work. This is a hands-on leadership position.
Technical Experience Significant hands-on experience in commercial waterproofing, concrete restoration and/or building envelope work, including:



Waterproofing, protective coatings and traffic coating systems
Crack and structural injection systems
TREMCO and SOPREMA products and systems
Torch-applied and liquid-applied waterproofing
Structural concrete preparation and repair
Parkade and building envelope restoration
Sealants, membranes, and surface preparation
Manufacturer-specific application requirements
Experience with occupied commercial buildings, parkades, multi-residential properties, and complex restoration projects is strongly preferred. Qualifications Extensive hands-on commercial construction, waterproofing and/or restoration experience.
Proven experience leading crews and running active job sites.
Strong practical knowledge of construction methods, sequencing and problem solving.
Ability to assess what needs to happen next and make it happen.
Comfortable directing, training, and working alongside field crews.
Strong understanding of job-site safety and safe work practices.
Ability to read drawings, specifications, and technical product information.
Strong communication, organization, and site-management skills.
Valid, clean Class 5 driver's licence; Class 1 is an asset.
The Person We're Looking For We're looking for someone who knows the work and does the work. Someone who takes ownership, can lead a crew and is equally comfortable directing the project or putting on their PPE and getting into the work themselves. If you've spent years in commercial waterproofing, concrete restoration or building envelope work and want to take ownership of projects while remaining hands-on in the field, we'd like to hear from you. Compensation $85,000 to $90,000 annually, based on experience
