The Opportunity

Build the Future with Us

As a Senior Environmental Permitting Specialist , you will play a leadership role in advancing complex infrastructure projects across Ontario.

Provide strategic advice to clients and project teams on regulatory pathways, permitting risks, approvals sequencing, and timelines.
Identify, assess, and manage permitting and compliance risks, developing effective mitigation strategies.
Oversee the identification, tracking, and acquisition of environmental permits, licenses, approvals, and agreements.
Develop and implement permitting plans, approvals matrices, and tracking tools to support project delivery.
Act as the primary point of contact with regulators, Indigenous communities, and stakeholders throughout the approvals process.
Support construction‑phase compliance, including interpretation and implementation of permit conditions and commitments.
Provide technical leadership to multidisciplinary teams and contribute to quality reviews of permitting and compliance deliverables.

The Skills That Set You Apart

Strong working knowledge of key provincial and federal environmental legislation and regulatory frameworks.
Demonstrated success delivering permitting strategies for major infrastructure projects (e.g., transportation, energy, mining).
Proven ability to provide strategic regulatory advice, manage approvals tracking systems, and navigate complex approvals processes.
Experience coordinating with contractors and supporting construction‑phase environmental compliance.
Strong leadership, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills.
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in environmental science, planning, engineering, or a related field.
10+ years of experience in environmental permitting, approvals, and regulatory compliance in Ontario.
