Lead technical decision-making for drinking water treatment processes, including
Coagulation and flocculation

Demonstrated experience managing project scope, schedule, budget, quality, contractual obligations, and project risk.
Strong commercial acumen, including project financial management, forecasting, profitability, fee management, and resource planning.

Demonstrated experience serving as Project Manager or Project Director for municipal clients such as the City of Toronto, York Region, Peel Region, Durham Region, Halton Region, or other Ontario municipalities, with an understanding of their standards, governance, approval processes, and stakeholder expectations.
Excellent communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills.
