Role Overview

In this role, you will play an important part in helping clients create safer and healthier spaces across the GTA. As a Project Technologist within the IEQ group, you will support a range of environmental investigations, including indoor air quality, mould, water damage, Legionella, and fire and smoke damage assessments.

Your work will involve assessing conditions in the field, collecting accurate data, and translating your findings into clear, practical recommendations that help clients make informed decisions. Working closely with Project Managers, colleagues, and clients, you will contribute to projects that protect occupants, improve building performance, and support the long-term resilience of buildings and communities.

This is a hands-on position in a fast-paced, ever-changing environment, offering ongoing opportunities to learn and build your technical expertise. It is meaningful work with real impact, where you will continue to develop your skills while delivering solutions grounded in quality, integrity, and care.

• Experience completing assessments for mould, indoor air quality (IEQ), industrial hygiene, designated substances, and other hazardous materials


• Ability to conduct interviews with clients regarding building history and site-specific concerns


• Knowledge of assessing building damage related to floods, water losses, smoke, and fire


• Hands-on experience collecting mould, bacteria, asbestos air, and hazardous materials samples
