    Job Summary:

    CSA Group has an immediate opportunity for a Project Manager - Standards Development, Construction and Infrastructure based in Toronto.

    In this challenging and rewarding role, you will facilitate the development of leading-edge standards solutions by enabling technical discussions and promoting consensus amongst key stakeholders. You will interact with industry experts, manufacturers, academia, researchers, scientists and government officials.

    CSA Group standards are developed by volunteer members through an accredited process. The standards are used by a broad base of stakeholders to help enhance safety and sustainability for people and business.

    The Construction and Infrastructure standards team manages a diverse portfolio of innovative codes and standards covering construction products, buildings and civil infrastructure. Much of the team's work relates to timely topics such as climate resiliency and circular economy. Many of the standards are referenced in regulations such as the National Building Code.

    Responsibilities:

    • Facilitating the development of construction and infrastructure standards and related materials by CSA Group volunteer committee members;
    • Establishing and actively managing project processes and schedules, resource requirements (eg. funding, personnel), costs, quality and risk;
    • Day-to-day management of committee activities, delivering on project milestones and revenue targets;
    • Convening in-person and virtual committee meetings;
    • Liaising with internal and external partners including clients, management, legal and finance to develop proposals, contracts, and financial analyses for new projects;
    • Working with committee leadership to manage committee membership;
    • Participating on occasional ad-hoc internal task groups (eg. related to business or process improvement, research, etc.); and
    • Other related responsibilities.

A key element of the Project Manager role is to ensure that processes and procedures are adhered to, and that project timelines are achieved within the defined budget. The role emphasizes management, leadership and soft skills, however requires the ability to speak to complex subjects as a credible professional.

    Education:

    • A degree or diploma required in a related field (eg. construction, civil infrastructure, building technology, architecture, project management, business/management and/or climate resiliency, or other related field.)
    • A technical, engineering or advanced degree would be an asset.

    Experience:

    • Minimum 5 years of relevant experience, including 2 years of experience in standards development, stakeholder engagement and/or project management.
    • Experience related to the construction and/or infrastructure sector would be an asset.
    • Experience in climate change adaptation and/or resiliency of buildings and infrastructure would be an asset.
    • Experience working with volunteers and/or multi-stakeholder groups would be an asset.
    • Knowledge of the standards industry, government policy, and the industry landscape would be an asset.

    Skills:

    • Top-notch people skills: managing relationships, facilitating and networking with people at all levels with divergent interests, backgrounds and goals.
    • Ability to successfully negotiate with stakeholders in challenging and demanding situations.
    • Proficiency in oral and written communication, including experience and comfort with delivering presentations and with writing technical documents, proposals and business plans.
