Team Leader, Senior Water Engineer
Many of the world’s top engineers and scientists come together in our Water business because they view a community’s interaction with water a bit differently—as a single holistic system, rather than unconnected networks divided by jurisdictional boundaries. Working throughout the hydrologic cycle, we are delivering sustainable solutions to make sure water is where it should be and available when needed. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we’re hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O+U.
Your Opportunity
We are looking for a talented Team Leader, Senior Water Engineer who wants to be part of a purpose-driven organization that’s focused on helping our clients, colleagues and communities thrive. Our people are Stantec’s most valuable resource, and in joining our team you will be able to leverage your career experiences and expertise within a culture that values inclusion, celebrates shared success, and applauds ambition.
Stantec’s Water and Wastewater experience includes over 900 treatment plants, from some of the largest and most complex in the world to those supporting small, remote communities. Our local water infrastructure projects include large and small projects for public and private sector clients. With expertise in advanced treatment, automation/information management, nutrient recovery, odor control, operations and management evaluation, process review and optimization and reclamation and reuse; we’re always looking at what’s next in the industry and bring innovative approaches to even the most complex projects. Our designs have satisfied discharge limits that push the boundaries of existing solutions, and our experts continue to conduct research in the application of developing technologies, such as treatment for removal of emerging contaminants.
