  • Uphold high standards of quality, ethics, professionalism, and client service while supporting the organization's sustainability and social impact objectives.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement by sharing feedback, mentoring colleagues, and helping strengthen team capabilities and project delivery practices.
  • Between 5 and 10 years of technical experience in building commissioning, MEP design, energy consulting, or a related field, including at least 3 years in project management.
