• Maintain visibility into resource assignments, workload distribution, and dependencies across active projects.
• Track discipline hours against budget and forecast, ensuring accurate reporting to Project Management.
• Follow information into future proposal development.
• Regularly communicate with stakeholders:

• Identify resource‑related risks that could affect project milestones.

• Develop mitigation strategies (e.g., adjusting schedules, redistributing work, or escalating priority conflicts).

• Document resource risks and communication impact proactively to the stakeholders.

• Identify and communicate inefficiencies, gaps, or bottlenecks in workflows.

What We Expect from You

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• 1–3+ years of experience supporting engineering project delivery, power system studies, protection & controls, or compliance documentation (NERC experience preferred).
• Familiarity with common generator/IBR standards and deliverables (as applicable to role)
• Demonstrated ability to organize and set priorities across multiple projects, manage action items, and meet deadlines with minimal supervision.
• Strong documentation skills: able to prepare clear and concise meeting notes, status updates, deliverable trackers, risk logs, and evidence indices.
• Experience with document control concepts (versioning, review/approval workflows, transmittals) and maintaining auditable project records.
• Strong quantitative and tool skills, including intermediate Excel (trackers, pivots, basic formulas) and comfort working in SharePoint/Teams or other collaboration platforms for controlled file sharing.
• Excellent verbal/written communication, time management, interpersonal, and organizational skills; able to work effectively with internal SMEs and external clients/vendors.
• Must have permanent authorization to work in Canada.
