About Us:

The Miller Group, a subsidiary of Colas Canada, is a Canadian leader in the construction and maintenance of transportation infrastructure since 1917. We provide exceptional customer service and operational support using our time-proven construction methods and innovative technologies, alongside the highest quality products and materials. We leverage our global network to foster positive relationships that make a lasting difference in the communities where we live and work. Whether it is making your commute more efficient, keeping our communities safe, or making remote areas more accessible, at Miller we are proud to Build Greatness in everything we do.

Minimum Qualifications:

5+ years of experience in team management
Relevant experience in obtaining scopes of work and pricing from subcontractors, submitting proposals to client
Knowledge of cost control techniques and setting and managing a budget
Experience in contract management

Preferred Qualifications:

Advanced knowledge of various construction regulations and winter patrol operations
Post secondary education in financial management and/or contract management
Experience in implementing a Safety First culture including managing incidents and working towards reducing incidents.

Day in the life:

Your day kicks off with a focus on ensuring that all performance requirements are not just met but exceeded. The overarching goal is to guarantee customer satisfaction and, of course, maximize profitability. Your daily priority involves optimizing the allocation of resources, both human and equipment, across the busiest stretch of highway in North America.

This means strategically planning and managing the workforce and equipment to ensure smooth operations while keeping the client satisfied and cost low.

You will be maintaining positive relationships with our client, the Ministry of Transportation Ontario (MTO) on a regular basis. It is important that you are able to stay organized and prioritize tasks.

The role demands a very hands-on approach to supporting your team, while overseeing day-to-day operations, as you will be working locally at the patrol yard with the team 5 days per week, while being called to meet at head office in Markham on occasion.

Whether it's unexpected challenges, operational hiccups, or urgent client matters, you will take charge of managing and resolving them promptly.

Quick decision-making and effective problem-solving are key components of this job.

Simultaneously a significant part of your day is dedicated to fostering a strong and capable team including any immediate issues and long term growth and development of your staff.

This role is for you if you enjoy:

Problem solving in collaboration with multiple stakeholders
Operational management and being client focused
Optimizing resource allocation in conjunction with contract compliance
Building and supporting a culture of growth and community within the workplace
