We are working with a specialized engineering and manufacturing company delivering structural steel solutions across Canada.

This is a leadership role with real authority.

You will act as Engineer of Record, lead the engineering function, and partner directly with executive leadership to shape technical direction, team performance, and project delivery.

This is not a middle-management role.
This is ownership of the engineering function.

🏗️ THE ROLE

This is a dual mandate position combining:

• Technical leadership (P.Eng / EOR responsibility)

• Team leadership and operational influence

You will lead design standards, review and seal work, mentor engineers, and ensure engineering output aligns with commercial and operational goals.

• Background in steel structures, bridges, or related systems

• Proven leadership experience managing engineering teams

• Strong understanding of Canadian design codes and standards

⚙️ TECHNICAL ENVIRONMENT

• Structural design tools (RISA, Midas, IdeaStatica or similar)

• CAD tools (AutoCAD, SolidWorks)

• Project-based engineering environment

💥 WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

• Direct reporting line to executive leadership

• Full ownership of engineering function

• Influence over both technical and business decisions

• Opportunity to build and shape a team

• Stable, specialized company with national reach

• High-impact role with visible outcomes

🧲 IDEAL BACKGROUNDS

• Structural Engineers ready to step into leadership
