    Broad role covering all aspects of business development, technical leadership, team leadership, and project delivery within the service area offering associated with Building Envelope New Construction and Building Envelope Commissioning (BECx). As of the date of offer, we project that one junior to intermediate level staff member will be assigned to the New Construction / BECx Team from each of the Calgary and Edmonton branch offices. It will be the responsibility of the Team Lead, in cooperation with the rest of the department, to grow this team over time based on increasing revenues associated with this service offering.

    This sector of MH's business involves working on new construction / BECx projects where MH acts as either a 3rd party quality assurance component to the architectural prime consultant / builder / developer, or as the BECx agent / authority typically for the owner. This service line typically involves a form of design review (either as building envelope experts suggesting design revisions to the Engineer or Architect of Record, or as an envelope expert reviewing the work from a commissioning standpoint against defined owners' requirements for the project) as well as construction field services including quality assurance site visits and testing requirements. The role will involve active participation in these activities, as well as oversight of those completing them.

    Although building envelope concentrated, the successful candidate would often work within larger MH teams who are completing other engineering scopes of service for a project (for example, larger full-building commissioning roles, energy / sustainability roles, etc.), or otherwise will be involved on projects where MH's only role is building envelope related and will therefore lead these projects.

    The successful candidate will be in a leadership position responsible for driving this service line forward from a business perspective within the Building Specialty Services Business Unit in Alberta, while maintaining contact with similar business leaders in MH's other North American offices thereby ensuring company processes and technical excellence is maintained as standard.

    As such, the expectation is that the successful candidate will have significant technical and sales history and familiarity with this service line based on past work experience, and will have local industry recognition / contacts (i.e. Architects, developers / builders, contractors, government, residential and commercial property managers and portfolio owners, etc.). In addition, the successful candidate will be able to build their industry client contact list, dedicating a component of their time to marketing and service line growth.

    The intent of this role is to drive the growth of the New Construction / BECx service line in Alberta under the leadership of the successful candidate, thus allowing for the future recruitment of fully dedicated service line staff who the successful candidate will ultimately fully lead (technical mentorship, output reviews, and staffing assignments).

  • Develops operating policies, program objectives, solutions to unusual conditions affecting work progress, etc.
  • Recommends practical application of theories and data derived from engineering research
  • Although not expected to be a significant component of the role, if the Team Lead has a professional designation the expectation will be that it is kept in good standing with the governing body associated with that designation (e.g. APEGA, AAA), and that the practice of Engineering / Architecture will be incorporated into the role where required, including authentication of deliverables based on the definitions and requirements of Professional Practice per the applicable governing body, and Morrison Hershfield's Professional Practice Management Plan
  • Leadership:

  • Leads by creating an innovative approach to work
  • Function as a Team Lead, with subordinate staffing to be determined based on service line revenue and capacity
  • Responsible for articulating the MH Vision and Strategic Plans to staff, obtaining buy-in, and driving results
