Original job description

Here at DIALOG, we are passionate about design and believe it can and should meaningfully improve the wellbeing of our communities and the environment we all share.

We are a multi-disciplinary practice of architects, interior designers, urban designers and planners, structural, mechanical and electrical engineers, landscape architects and sustainability experts who design for community wellbeing and urban vibrancy. We are a fun-loving bunch of big thinkers and city-shapers, who are collaborative in our approach, diverse in our perspectives, aspirational in our pursuits, and optimistic about what’s next. We’re always looking for passionate people who share our values and care as much about our communities as we do. We're proud to be a Certified B Corporation and one of Canada's Greenest Employers, committed to using our design practice as a force for good in the world.

\nHow you'll make a difference:

Lead and manage all aspects of the Contract Administration phase, ensuring adherence to contract requirements, protection of design intent and effective project delivery
Establish, implement and enforce project protocols, communication frameworks and contract administration procedures across all stakeholders (owner, consultants, contractor, vendors, AHJs)
Conduct site reviews for general conformance with contract documents, identifying deficiencies and directing appropriate corrective action
Independently monitor contract progress including schedule, cost and work-in-place, identifying risks and proactively advising the Owner of potential impacts
Direct and oversee all contract documentation and communications (RFI, SI, PCN, CO, CD, Submittals) including review and coordination of multidisciplinary consultant input prior to issuance
Interpret contract documents and provide clear, consistent direction to contractors and consultants, ensuring fair and defensible contract administration
Lead resolution of conflicts, negotiations, and claims in a fair and balanced manner
Provide technical leadership on construction issues, leveraging strong knowledge of building systems, constructability and sequencing
Mentor and provide direction to junior and intermediate team members, supporting capability development and consistent CA best practices

Who you are:

10+ years of experience in Contract Administration or related field with demonstrated leadership of CA-phase delivery across multiple project scales and complexity
Proven experience leading contract administration on complex projects (greater than ~$100M construction value) with minimal supervision
Advanced knowledge of standard and non-standard construction contracts (CCDC, CCDC 5A/5B, supplementary conditions, alternative delivery models, etc.)
Deep understanding of procurement process, contract law principles and administration of changes, claims and delays, including claim avoidance and mitigation strategies
Expert-level proficiency in field reviews, payment certification, contract documentation, and contract change management (PCN, CO, CD, etc.)
Strong building science knowledge, including materials, methods, and construction processes
Knowledge of building construction systems and assemblies, including how components are sequenced and installed in the field (foundations, structure, envelope, M&E systems, finishes, etc.)
Deep understanding of building codes, construction procedures, and relevant legislation
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with sound, defensible decision-making in complex or high-risk scenarios
Proven ability to lead coordination and review of multidisciplinary consultant input, providing clear direction to consultants and contractors
Experience leading Substantial Completion, Total Performance and closeout processes
Demonstrated leadership in mentoring and developing team members across disciplines
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, including negotiation and conflict resolution skills
Ability to manage competing priorities in high-pressure, fast-paced construction environments
Valid driver’s license and access to a reliable vehicle. Able to travel to project sites, including occasional short-duration trips to locations outside the Calgary/Edmonton area

You'll stand out with:

Experience with alternative delivery models (CM, Design-Build, IPD) and associated CA implications
Experience advising Owners on procurement strategies, tender evaluations and contract award recommendations
Experience reviewing and responding to contract claims, delays and disputes
Advanced experience with construction scheduling review (critical path awareness)
Exposure to quality management processes and pre-bid document reviews
Experience contributing to training, internal knowledge sharing or CA practice development
Experience with construction management software platforms (Onware, Part3, Procore, Prolog, BIM 360, etc.)
Background in Architecture, Architectural Technology, Engineering or related field, including experience with Revit
Certified Construction Contract Administrator (CCCA) with CSC
