About Us

We are KGS Group, an employee‑owned, multidisciplinary engineering consulting firm serving clients throughout North America. We’re different than traditional engineering firms. We believe a commitment to lasting relationships is just as critical as the expertise applied in our work. To us that means we put our clients and people first.

As an employee‑owned company, we’re invested in our work and our people. Working with us means you’ll be part of some of the most interesting projects across Canada, the U.S. and beyond. With the extensive, wide‑ranging expertise within our company, you’ll have countless opportunities to learn and grow.

The Opportunity

In this role, you’ll manage and support electrical multi‑discipline projects from the proposal stage through to completion, including establishment and maintenance of budgets and schedules.

• Minimum of a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from a recognized university; a post graduate degree would be an asset.
• Preferred 10+ years’ experience in electrical engineering with some project management skills (tracking budgets and meeting schedules).
• Registered (or eligible to become registered) with Association of Professional Engineers & Geoscientists of Saskatchewan (APEGS). Registration in other Canadian provinces would be an additional asset.
• Previous consulting experience is preferred.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills are required.
• Candidate must be able to work independently with minimal supervision.
