Job description

Apply for Engineering Project Manager at Pure Environmental Waste Management in Calgary, AB, CA. This Full time on site position offers great opportunities for career growth. We don’t just manage waste; we rethink how industry handles it. At Pure Environmental, we’re building world‑class facilities that meet the highest industry standards for the energy and industrial sectors. From geothermal waste cavern facilities to engineered landfills, our work supports operations across the full lifecycle—from exploration to end of life.

Who We Are

We’re a team built on experience, but we don’t just operate on the status quo. We’ve spent decades in environmental and energy services, and we’ve seen what works—and what doesn’t. That’s why we do things simply, safely, and properly, with a strong focus on innovation and critical thinking. We operate in markets that are often underserved, where dependable infrastructure is critical. Our facilities are designed to provide the systems and support these markets actually need, not just check boxes. At Pure, our employees take ownership. We look out for each other, and we take pride in running clean, compliant, and well‑managed operations. If you like straightforward work, a strong team, and a place where your judgment is trusted, you’ll fit in well.

Our Values

How we work matters as much as what we achieve. Our values shape our culture and guide our decisions:

• Building Empowered Leaders — We encourage ownership, initiative, and leadership at every level.
• Integrity — We act with honesty, accountability, and do what’s right.
• Growth & Innovation — We stay curious, continuously improve, and embrace new ideas.
• Open & Honest Communication — We value transparency, direct feedback, and respectful dialogue.

The Opportunity

Good projects don’t stay on track by accident. They stay on track because someone takes ownership—bringing the right people together, understanding what needs to happen next, managing priorities, watching costs and schedules, and stepping in when something doesn’t line up. As the Engineering Project Manager, you’ll lead engineering and capital projects that support the growth, reliability, safety, and performance of Pure Environmental’s facilities. You’ll be responsible for driving projects from early concept and development through engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, start‑up, and operational handover. You’ll work closely with Engineering, Operations, HSE, Regulatory, Finance, contractors, consultants, and field teams to deliver projects safely, efficiently, and to a high standard. This is a hands‑on project leadership role. We’re looking for an experienced engineer who enjoys taking ownership of projects, understands how engineering decisions translate into real‑world construction and operations, and can bring people together to get work done. You’ll need to be comfortable getting into the details when required, while maintaining a clear view of the overall project objectives, schedule, budget, and risks.

What You’ll Do

• Lead engineering and capital projects from concept through design, procurement, construction, commissioning, start‑up, and operational handover.
• Own project scope, schedule, budget, resources, risk, quality, and overall execution.
• Develop project execution plans, schedules, budgets, milestones, and key deliverables.
• Lead and coordinate multidisciplinary engineering teams, internal stakeholders, consultants, contractors, vendors, and other project partners.
• Ensure engineering deliverables align with project objectives, regulatory requirements, constructability, operability, cost, and schedule.
• Monitor project progress and financial performance, proactively identifying and addressing risks, issues, changes, and schedule or cost impacts.
• Coordinate procurement, contractor execution, construction, commissioning, and start‑up activities to ensure projects are delivered safely and effectively.
• Work closely with Operations and field teams to ensure engineering solutions are practical, maintainable, and aligned with operational requirements.
• Lead the resolution of technical and operational challenges, working with engineering and field personnel to develop practical solutions.
• Manage project changes and Management of Change (MOC) activities where required.
• Maintain clear project documentation, reporting, KPIs, and communication with leadership and key stakeholders.
• Support facility reliability, optimization, expansion, and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Ensure projects are executed in accordance with company standards, regulatory requirements, and HSE expectations.

What Makes You a Great Fit

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, such as Mechanical, Chemical, Civil, Environmental, Electrical, or a related discipline.
• 5+ years of relevant professional experience, with demonstrated experience leading or delivering engineering, capital, industrial, infrastructure, energy, environmental, or construction.
• Proven ability to manage projects through multiple phases, from concept and engineering through construction, commissioning, and operational handover.
• Demonstrated experience managing project scope, schedule, budget, risk, procurement, contractors, and project reporting.
• Strong technical understanding and the ability to work effectively with engineers, contractors, field personnel, and operations teams.
• Ability to understand technical details and engineering deliverables while maintaining focus on overall project objectives.
• Strong communication, coordination, and stakeholder‑management skills.
• Demonstrated ability to take ownership, make decisions, solve problems, and drive projects forward.
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities and competing deadlines.
• Comfortable working both in the field and in an office environment.
• Strong attention to detail without losing sight of the bigger picture.
• Practical, results‑oriented approach to project execution.
• Demonstrated commitment to safety and ensuring incident‑ and injury‑free working conditions.

What Helps (But Isn’t Required)

• Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation or eligibility for registration with APEGA.
• Project Management Professional (PMP) or other project management certification.
• Experience in energy, environmental services, industrial facilities, construction, infrastructure, or resource development.
• Experience managing engineering consultants, EPC contractors, vendors, and other external project partners.
• Experience with procurement, contract administration, cost control, and project forecasting.
• Experience with Management of Change (MOC), asset integrity, reliability, maintenance, or facility optimization programs.
• Proficiency with tools such as Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, Bluebeam, Power BI, or similar project management and reporting systems.
• Experience with regulatory permitting and compliance within an industrial or environmental setting.
