At Smith + Andersen our employees contribute to some of the most sustainable building design projects in Canada.

The Toronto office of Smith + Andersen is currently seeking an intermediate Deltek Vantagepoint Specialist to support the effective use, administration, and continued improvement of Vantagepoint across our engineering consulting practice. This will be a hands-on role focused on maintaining reliable data, developing useful reports and dashboards, improving workflows, and supporting employees who use the system.

This posting is for an existing vacancy within our organization.
