Built on family roots, we value safety, hard work, and getting the job done right for our clients. We offer competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and opportunities to build your skills and grow your career.

Role Details

Location: Canada. Open to candidates residing in various provinces across Canada, with responsibility for supporting major utility infrastructure projects throughout Canada and the United States.

Work arrangement: Hybrid, with required travel to project sites and attendance at the Edmonton office.
Employment type: Full-time, permanent.
Schedule: Monday through Friday, with project-specific rotations assigned once onsite.
Travel: Extensive travel to project locations across Canada and the United States is required, including time away from home to support project execution and stakeholder engagement.

The Opportunity

Forbes Bros. Group of Companies is seeking an experienced Project Director to lead the successful delivery of complex, high-value utility infrastructure projects across North America. In this senior leadership role, you will oversee major construction programs, including transmission infrastructure, substations, and large-scale capital projects, with full accountability for operational execution, commercial performance, and stakeholder relationships.

This opportunity is well-suited for an established construction leader with extensive experience managing high-risk, multi-site projects. You will play a key role in strengthening project leadership teams, building strategic partnerships, and contributing to the long-term success of our utility construction operations.

Key Elements of the Role

Direct the execution of large-scale utility infrastructure projects, often exceeding $500 million, ensuring alignment with project schedules, budgets, contractual obligations, and delivery objectives.
Provide executive oversight of multi-site and cross-border construction activities, including workforce planning, field logistics, resource allocation, and construction sequencing.
Maintain full profit and loss (P&L) accountability, oversee financial forecasting and margin protection, and lead contract negotiations, change management, claims resolution, and commercial risk mitigation.
Resolve critical engineering, procurement, and construction challenges while overseeing regulatory requirements, permitting, joint venture commitments, and Indigenous engagement.
Build and maintain strategic relationships with clients, Indigenous governments, regulatory authorities, industry associations, and business partners to support successful project delivery.
Champion safety and quality across projects, ensuring consistent implementation of safety and quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) programs, compliance reviews, audits, and continuous operational improvement.
Build, lead, and mentor project leadership teams, establish accountability, support succession planning, and strengthen workforce capabilities across regional operations.
Contribute to preconstruction planning, project pursuits, long-term resource forecasting, and strategic initiatives that strengthen organizational capabilities and national project delivery readiness.

What You’ll Bring

A degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field.
18–20+ years of progressive project delivery experience within utility infrastructure, heavy industrial, or large-scale construction environments, including senior leadership responsibilities.
Demonstrated success leading complex, high-value construction projects involving multiple stakeholders, geographic regions, and significant operational and commercial risks.
Extensive knowledge of commercial contract strategy, financial management, joint venture delivery, regulatory engagement, construction logistics, and large-scale project execution.
Advanced understanding of construction safety, QA/QC systems, schedule management, productivity optimization, and project risk mitigation.
Proven ability to build and lead senior project teams, manage competing priorities, and make sound decisions in complex construction environments.
Strong executive-level communication, negotiation, leadership, and stakeholder relationship management skills, with the ability to influence clients, strategic partners, and internal leadership.
Ability and willingness to travel extensively across Canada and the United States to support project execution, operational leadership, and stakeholder engagement.
An MBA, Project Management Professional (PMP), or Program Management Professional (PgMP) designation is considered an asset.

The range shown is the expected base pay range for this role. Final compensation will be determined based on role requirements, experience, qualifications, work location, applicable project/site requirements, internal equity, and any applicable collective agreement or union requirements.This range does not include overtime, premiums, per diem / LOA, bonuses, benefits, or other forms of compensation unless specifically stated in the job posting.
