The Opportunity:

At WSP, we're continuing to grow and develop our expertise in Earth and Environment, operating as a trusted advisor and technical expert on engineering design challenges for our clients across multiple industries.

As part of the Human Environment team in Ontario, you will work alongside a diverse group of social researchers from across Canada.

Together in an interdisciplinary environment, we study the interactions between human populations and the natural and physical environments in project-specific contexts.

This includes a wide range of industrial, government and Indigenous partners.

Our services include communication and engagement with public stakeholders, government agencies and Indigenous Nations and Peoples, social and economic baseline research, socio-economic impact assessments (including GBA+ analysis, land and resource use, visual aesthetics and impacts on Indigenous Rights), socio-economic effects monitoring and management as well as Indigenous Knowledge studies.

Working with WSP's Discipline Lead for Ontario and across geographies and disciplines, our Human Environment team leads the advancement of social inclusion internally and with our clients to strengthen the social aspect of ESG throughout our projects.
