Project Manager - Permanent

City: Toronto

Salary: N/A

Added: August 18, 2026

Project Manager - Permanent - 19375

About the Opportunity

Most Project Managers in this market have built their whole career in one lane: commercial or residential, new-build or restoration, rarely all of it at once.

Our client, an established Ottawa-area building company, has spent the last several years doing the opposite: building out three real service lines, commercial construction, residential construction, and building envelope and restoration, instead of picking one.

They’re now hiring a Project Manager who can run work across all three, because the firm has decided that range, not specialization, is what the next stage of growth needs.

Duties include but are not limited to

Own assigned projects from award through closeout across commercial, residential, and envelope/restoration work, not a single project type on repeat

Serve as the main point of contact for clients and consultants directly, not filtered through an account layer

Manage budgets, cost forecasts, and cash flow, and call the corrective action yourself when a number moves

Tender and negotiate subcontractor and supplier contracts; manage change orders, RFIs, and submittals

Coordinate directly with site superintendents and field staff so drawings and specs actually hold on site

Carry safety and code compliance, Ontario OHSA and municipal permitting, as your responsibility, not someone else’s checklist

About You

The successful candidate will have the following

5+ years running commercial and/or residential construction projects, with real budget and schedule accountability, not just reporting on them

Comfortable reading the Ontario Building Code and CCDC contract forms without needing someone to translate them

Has negotiated with subcontractors and suppliers directly and knows which ones actually deliver

Building envelope or restoration exposure is a strong asset, not a requirement

PMP or Gold Seal certification, or working toward one, helps but isn’t a gate

Ready to stop specializing in one project type and start owning a varied pipeline

About the Job

A quick note on what's on offer beyond compensation

A project mix that spans three real service lines instead of one, with genuine range in the day-to-day work

Direct client relationships and full accountability from award to closeout, not a role boxed in by layers above you

A team structure built to support Project Managers on-site, not leave them exposed when something goes sideways

Competitive salary ranging from $100,000 to $120,000 with performance-based bonus potential, full health and dental benefits, and a vehicle allowance or mileage reimbursement for site travel
