At KBL, we do things differently. As Western Canada’s largest environmental waste management company—born in the North and built on resilience—we’ve grown by trusting our people, keeping them safe and backing bold ideas. We're proud to be recognized as one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies!

We’re looking for an Environmental Project Manager to take the lead on a mix of office and field-based environmental projects. In this role, you’ll manage project budgets and schedules, work closely with clients and regulators, support field crews, and help keep projects running smoothly and safely from start to finish. You’ll also play a key part in bidding new work, building cost estimates, and mentoring team members as the business grows.

What You’ll Do

• Manage environmental projects from planning through completion, including budgets, schedules, reporting, and overall project performance
• Coordinate with clients, regulators, internal teams, subcontractors, and field crews to meet project and compliance requirements
• Prepare cost estimates, budgets, work plans, and proposals for new and existing project opportunities
• Oversee field activities, site safety, sampling programs, and compliance monitoring to ensure work is completed safely and to regulatory standards
• Lead, support, and mentor field staff through training, task delegation, and ongoing project communication

Who You Are

• You have a university degree or college diploma in Environmental Sciences or a related field, with hands-on experience in environmental site assessment, remediation, and sampling (soil, water, air).
• You’re comfortable working independently, solving problems in the field, and adapting to changing project needs while keeping timelines and budgets on track.
• You’re a strong communicator who can work effectively with clients, regulators, First Nations, subcontractors, and internal teams.
• Professional designations (P.Ag, RT.Ag, CET, PMP, EP) are considered an asset but not required.

What You Need

• Ability to perform physically demanding field work, including lifting up to 100 lbs, standing for extended periods, and working in challenging outdoor conditions.
• Ability and willingness to travel frequently to multiple project sites across the North, including remote locations
• Willingness to work both in the office and in the field, with exposure to weather, dust, noise, mud, water, and other site conditions.
• A valid driver’s license and the ability to travel to remote project locations.
• First Aid and WHMIS/TDG certifications (or willingness to complete training provided by KBL).

We’re committed to providing a safe, supportive work environment. Reasonable accommodations are available to those who qualify.

• Trust & Empowerment: Empowered culture with minimal bureaucracy- just real responsibility, ownership, and the flexibility to do your best work
• Growth & Agility: We’re entrepreneurial by nature—quick to adapt and deeply invested in your development
• Care & Commitment: From top-tier benefits (including $3,000 annually for psychological support) to a focus on safety and wellness, we put our people first
