  • Serve as the primary contact for station-related and government relations matters, advocating for the company in infrastructure planning forums

  • Coordinate with teams to standardize documentation and refine processes, enabling improved efficiencies

About You

  • 1+ years of experience in business development, strategic partnerships, or real estate development, including work with Canadian government entities at the federal, provincial, and municipal levels

  • 1+ years of project management experience with knowledge of Canadian transportation regulations (e.g., Transport Canada and provincial Ministries of Transportation) and public transit systems

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal abilities, with experience initiating new business relationships

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, including Excel and PowerPoint

  • Working proficiency in French is not required, but would be an asset

We recognize that everyone carries a unique set of valuable skills and experiences. If you think you could have an impact even though you don't meet 100% of the requirements, we still encourage you to apply. We want to hear from you!
