Job Description

There's no pledge more important than the one we make to look after our environment, and we're committed to helping you do exactly that.

Join GHD's global network of engineers, scientists, planners and environmental specialists working together to create lasting community benefit. We are looking for an experienced geotechnical engineer who can take ownership of assignments, coordinate projects and field programs, and deliver high-quality work with limited day-to-day direction while drawing on senior technical specialists when needed.

Who we are looking for:

This is a senior-level opportunity for a strong, practical geotechnical engineer ready to operate with a high degree of responsibility in delivering infrastructure projects in Ontario. The role combines project delivery, technical analysis, field program management, client coordination and mentorship. It requires effective collaboration with technical directors and specialists across geotechnical disciplines to deliver complex and specialized work.

Be part of the dynamic culture! Our workplace thrives on a hybrid model, combining in-office collaboration and flexibility. Join us in office, three days a week to contribute, connect and excel in our vibrant environment.

The role can be based in any of our offices in Toronto, Mississauga, Markham, Whitby, or Waterloo.

Working with an energetic and high performing team, this position offers a variety of work and will see you involved in:

  • Manage, coordinate and deliver a wide variety of geotechnical projects in transportation, municipal infrastructure, commercial and residential development, utilities, resource industries and building structures.
  • Plan and oversee geotechnical investigations, in-situ testing, field assessments and site inspections, including coordination of subcontractors and field staff.
  • Interpret field and laboratory data and prepare geotechnical analyses, design recommendations, technical memoranda, reports, drawings and specifications.
  • Carry out and coordinate analyses for shallow and deep foundations, retaining walls, settlement, engineered fills, slope stability, embankments, shoring, trenching, tunnelling and construction groundwater control or dewatering requirements, as applicable to the assignment.
  • Manage project scope, schedules, budgets, quality and client communications, and identify when senior or specialist technical input is required.
  • Prepare proposals, work plans, cost estimates and scope changes, and support project pursuits and client presentations.
  • Provide geotechnical input through design, tendering and construction, including construction-phase consultation and review of field conditions against design assumptions.
  • Coordinate effectively with clients, contractors, multidisciplinary project teams and geotechnical colleagues across Canada.
  • Mentor junior staff, review their work and support consistent, practical approaches to geotechnical investigation, analysis and reporting.
  • Contribute to the continued development of the geotechnical practice through knowledge sharing, improved methods and support for strategic group initiatives.

What you will bring to the team

  • Bachelor’s degree in civil, geological or geotechnical engineering; a master’s degree is an asset.
  • Professional Engineer (P.Eng.) designation in Ontario, or eligibility to obtain Ontario licensure, required.
  • MTO RAQS certification, or eligibility to obtain certification.
  • 10+ years of relevant geotechnical engineering experience, including planning investigations and translating subsurface information into practical engineering solutions.
  • Experience in geotechnical analysis, design and project delivery across infrastructure, municipal, development or building projects.
  • Demonstrated project management experience, including scope, schedule, budget, subcontractor coordination and client communication.
  • Strong technical writing, communication and professional judgement, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and collaborate effectively with clients and multidisciplinary teams.
  • Proficiency with relevant geotechnical software such as gINT, GeoStudio, SETTLE3D, LPILE, PLAXIS, FLAC or Rocscience, with working knowledge of CADD/MicroStation and Microsoft Office.
  • Valid driver’s licence and access to a reliable vehicle.

What success in this role looks:

  • Projects and field programs are organized and delivered safely, on time and within agreed scope and budget.
  • Technical deliverables are clear, practical and appropriately reviewed.
  • Clients and project teams receive responsive communication and dependable follow-through.
  • Junior staff receive useful direction and opportunities to build their capability.
  • The engineer recognizes the limits of their own experience and brings in the right specialist support for complex or unfamiliar issues.
