• You’ll review technical documentation to ensure quality, accuracy, and compliance with applicable regulations and standards
• You’ll provide guidance on permitting requirements, supporting informed decision-making across project teams
• You’ll monitor contractor performance, ensuring deliverables meet expectations and regulatory obligations

• Experience supporting environmental assessments and navigating Canadian regulatory frameworks
• Strong project coordination skills, with the ability to manage multiple stakeholders and priorities
