About the role The Project Administrator keeps Engineering and Construction running: financial tracking, estimating coordination, project setup, document control, and health and safety administration. Our project managers, estimators, and leadership rely on this role for an accurate picture of where every project stands. This is a hands-on, detail-driven role suited to someone who thrives on structure and follow-through.

The successful candidate will bring a construction or engineering administrative background, be comfortable supporting multiple projects at once, and take ownership of getting the details right the first time. Responsibilities Finance and Project Controls Update and maintain Work in Progress (WIP) weekly with Project Manager input. Update our High Probability Sales to align with approved forecasts.

Maintain Operations folders with current financial records. Update and maintain the project progress tracker. Support invoice preparation with approved backup documentation. Track accounts payable and flag overdue items. Ensure financial data consistency across systems. Estimating and Pre-Construction Support Maintain HubSpot (CRM) accuracy and deal stages; create new deals and monitor estimating deadlines.

Project Setup, Quality Review, and Document Control Set up new projects following approved internal processes: create and populate project folders and templates. Own document control and folder accuracy, and audit project files regularly.

Create and maintain standardized project templates. Act as the last set of eyes before anything leaves the company - quality-review reports, proposals and deliverables prior to external release (for accuracy and completeness as well as spelling, grammar, clarity and formatting), raising inconsistencies or missing information directly with project managers and leadership. This is where you will learn fastest.

Health and Safety Administration - approximately 30% of the role SPG holds a Certificate of Recognition through the Alberta Association for Safety Partnerships. Our health and safety program is supported by an external provider who holds the professional side of it; this role holds the administration, and it is a substantial and visible part of the job. Administer Site App Pro day to day - user accounts, form library, configuration changes, and the monthly reporting pack.

Drive field-level hazard assessment completion: track who has filed, chase who has not, and escalate persistent non-participation. This is one of our real problems and closing it would be a visible win. Act as secretariat to the joint health and safety committee - agenda pack, minutes, action log and follow-up. Maintain the training and certification register, tracking expiry dates with enough lead time to renew before anything lapses.

Collect and file subcontractor prequalification records - certificates of insurance, WCB clearance letters, signed safety agreements, orientation sign-offs. Maintain SPG's status in client prequalification portals, Avetta in particular. Monitor completion and completeness of site-specific hazard assessments and required documentation, and escalate gaps. Collect the evidence our annual COR action plan requires and keep its status current.

Act as our day-to-day point of contact for the external health and safety provider, escalating to the VP Operations. What we are looking for Required
