Job description

The future you want is within reach.

At PCL, we build the places where life happens—and we find camaraderie in the process. We're a community of builders committed to creating better communities. That’s why we’re always looking ahead—not just to the next project or industry innovation, but also to what’s next for you and how we can help you build a career you’re proud of.

Here’s how a Building Systems Manager with our Corporate Integrated Construction Services group contributes to our team :

Summary :

We are looking for a seasoned expert who ideally understands all aspects of Building Systems (but if you have expertise that is specific to mechanical, electrical, or plumbing scope, we would still like to hear from you!)

This is an exciting role as a super mentor and coach to project teams and our various offices, which are completing everything from small tenant improvements to hyperscale data centers and complex mega infrastructure projects.

The successful candidate will be an expert in the field and an excellent communicator, both written and verbal. This person will know how to execute the work but today has the ability to coach strong builders to achieve incredible project successes.

Ideally, the candidate is based in or interested in relocating to Denver or Edmonton; however, we are also interested in hearing from candidates based in other locations. Travel will be required as a part of the role to (at times) be on the ground with our operations teams.

Responsibilities

  • Serve as an expert, providing enterprise-level guidance to ensure building systems practices align with corporate standards for design, quality, schedule, and constructability across the PCL family of companies.
  • Develop and maintain a corporate framework for building system scopes, contract negotiation strategies, and change management protocols to help offices complete their work.
  • Lead interesting and complex corporate initiatives for system coordination standards, sustainable design integration, and temporary utility planning across the organization.
  • Advise offices and major projects on building systems strategies, sequence logic, and integration with architectural components to ensure consistency and efficiency.
  • Oversee the development and implementation of enterprise-wide commissioning and closeout procedures, ensuring compliance with corporate goals and regulatory requirements.
  • Serve as a corporate liaison to support district teams in resolving complex issues with owners, consultants, and trade contractors, while driving constructability improvements.
  • Establish systems to track trade contractor performance trends and evaluate market capabilities for strategic planning.
  • Drive innovation in building systems, contribute to corporate strategy, and lead thought leadership by shaping best practices and influencing industry standards.
  • Lead corporate programs for building systems training, succession planning, and resource development to strengthen district capabilities and ensure long-term organizational success.
  • Maintain and integrate MEP cost trend insights to validate MEP design decisions and enhance budget certainty.
  • Provide technical expertise and strategic input to internal stakeholders, support dispute resolution, and advise on estimating and cost optimization at the corporate level.
  • Travel up to 25% throughout North America.

Qualifications

  • Hold a tradesperson designation or postsecondary education in mechanical, electrical, or related engineering field; bring 15+ years in construction, including 3+ years leading district-level building systems.
  • Demonstrate advanced knowledge of mechanical, electrical, and architectural systems, including their interaction, installation methods, and scheduling impacts.
  • Exhibit skill in coordinating mechanical, electrical, civil, structural, and architectural drawings, BIM processes, and resolving access or long-lead issues.
  • Apply knowledge of construction law, building codes, sustainable design principles (e.g., LEED), and life cycle costing.
  • Show proven ability to manage trade resources, advise on installation priorities, track progress, and oversee commissioning programs. Possess expertise in scheduling MEP systems, sequencing impacts, and managing start-up, commissioning, and closeout activities.
  • Understand diverse project types, delivery methods (e.g., design-build, P3), and writing / managing MEP scopes of work.
  • Implement technology impacting building systems (e.g., BIM, Revit, laser scanning, Microsoft Office Suite, and internal systems) and stay current with emerging technologies.
  • Demonstrate strong leadership, organizational, and communication skills with the ability to build stakeholder relationships, thrive in fast-paced environments, and represent PCL externally.
