Within the Water Infrastructure Management (WIM) Unit, you will provide support with the planning, design, and delivery of municipal linear infrastructure, including storm and sanitary sewer systems, stormwater management facilities, water distribution and transmission systems, and City complex initiatives. Participating in multidisciplinary teams, you will provide support for capacity assessment, growth planning, infrastructure servicing and funding, and the development approvals process as well as monitoring capital delivery of growth servicing, service enhancement and City-building complex initiatives. Your role will include technical reviews of engineering studies, reports, and design drawings, ensuring compliance of the City of Toronto technical standards, design criteria, policies, bylaws, procedures, and guidelines related to infrastructure servicing and growth management.

Project Management Accountabilities

Working closely with the City divisions and external agencies, you will support in managing a portfolio of complex infrastructure projects and City‑wide initiates, including governance, planning, infrastructure development, finance, environmental management and project implementation on behalf of Toronto Water. This will involve leading and participating in multidisciplinary project teams, including internal staff and external professional engineers, and mentoring engineering and technical personnel to ensure high standards of work quality, effective teamwork, and continuous learning. You will monitor project scope, schedules, budgets, risk management, and change control, including leading project change reviews and scope change approvals on behalf of WIM.
